Mia is very sensitive and does not like when other babies cry. If she sees someone crying she will walk over slowly and just stand there and stare at them. She will also pout her bottom lip as if she's about to cry too!
Mia finds comfort in sucking her thumb when she is tired or unsure. The Chinese people frown upon this, when we were walking down the street some women ran up to Mia in the stroller and pulled her thumb out of her mouth...Mia just glared at her and stuck it back in!
Mia also loves the hair on her doll (that I sent in her care package!), it is a few strands of yarn, but she touches it and pulls on it when she goes to sleep!
Mia does not like elevators.
Mia loves to eat, but does not like to drink!!! I've tried to give her juice, water, a mixture of juice and water...she only wants to drink out of a cup or the top of my water bottle!! (This does not include her bottle of formula...she will down this!)
Mia is finally beginning to realize that "Mia" is her name!!!
Mia is either eating or sleeping ~ I think she spent too much time in the crib!
Mia is walking better with each day; however, like I mentioned she seems to have been in the crib so much that she is way behind the other babies who are running around (who are a month younger than her!) Her balance is better with each day and I try to let her walk whenever it is possible.
Mia is unsure about daddy...she will peak at him when he isn't looking. Then, when he looks at her she will turn her head the other way! He can hold her, however, she will turn around for me to hold her - I try to ignore her and let him continue to hold her and she won't protest too much.
Mia is a living doll, happy, loves to laugh and is a true princess!!!
Daddy lures Mia over with a banana!
After 15 minutes, she gets close enough for a bit!
Love my thumb!
Happy !
Sweetness!
Got your bottle daddy!!
"aaaaahhhhh"

It sounds like she is and will catch up quickly. How sweet that she is shy with Ed, and lets him hold her. I am so glad that she has bonded to you so quickly. Mia is so sweet and beautiful. Love the hair clips and outfits that you are putting on. She is going to love Anthony and Eddie.
Love and miss you. LIsa
