Gettin ready to dance

Starting Sept 14th I will officially be a student of dance. Mommy took me to get my tap and ballet shoes. When we got home I put on a fashion show for Mommy and Daddy. I love my new shoes.

Dallas Zoo

Well..Mommy said that if I went poopoo in the potty she would take me to see real elephants. Guess what.....I DID IT!!! These pictures are of Mommy, Mikaela, and me at the zoo (Daddy was playing golf with Uncle Matt)

Road trip to and frm Crested Butte

even more Crested Butte

more Crested Butte

Crested Butte CO

We just had our very first family vacation. David, Mia, Mikaela, and myself drove to Crested Butte, CO for a week in the mountains. It was so amazing. The weather was perfect. Mikaela and Dave went white water rafting, and then she and I went horseback riding in the mountains. Mia had the best time of all playing with the rocks at the condo, climbing the mountains, feeding the chipmunks, and seeing a real bear (that was not so fun for Mommy).

Surgey Update and more

Hi Everyone,

In case I missed updating you...Mia's eye surgery went awesome!! She was in and out in 3o mins. The recovery the first 2 days was a little rough but she was trooper. We went to her post-op appt and Dr Stager wants her to wear her patch 1-2 hrs a day and continue with her current glasses for 5 more weeks. He said her eye was perfectly straightened by the surgery!!! We go back on Oct 2nd to have him look at her progress with the patch (to help strengthen the muscle in the straight position) and he is going to drastically reduce the prescription for her glasses. We are hopeful that with the help of glasses...in 5-10 years she might not need them anymore, so keep your fingers crossed. The picture is Mia 3 days post-op. She has some redness in her eyes, but that wasn't slowing her down :)
