Tutus!

Our friends, Jill and Mike, came for dinner Friday night to meet Anna. They brought lots of presents for both girls. In fact everyone who has brought a gift for Anna, has also brought something for Mia. People are very thoughtful.

Matching tutus were a real hit! But now we have glitter all over the house we are trying to sell.

Mia can always get Mike to spend most of his time playing with her. We tell him it's okay to say, "No." But he's such a softy!

When my mom came out for a visit we explained to Mia ahead of time that they were coming to visit and talk with everyone, not just to play with her. We felt we needed to explain this to her as when her birth grandparents come over, they are coming to play with her exclusively. This little talk with her really worked and she didn't keep asking them to play with her so we were all able to talk and have a nice time. I think I need to start doing that before anyone comes over! Mia is just so social that she has no "warming up" period. She pretty much steam rolls over visitors as soon as they come in the door!
