Mom and Dad had dinner with friends while Mia got to play with one of her best buddies, Alex. Mom cooked a few curries, raita, mango chutney with pappadoms and a great cheesecake. The kids got a bit "jumpy" towards the end of the evening.

Just a little morning fun during breakfast...

... Mia's year and half pictures. The Jumbo Spud (not be confused with Stud, abuelita) is a mega size Mr. Potato Head featuring multiple heads of various sizes and thousands of accessories to attach. This is indeed Mia's favorite toy at the moment. Thank you Uncle George and Aunt Henaris!

As we previously mentioned, Mia got a purple tricycle from Abuelita as an early Christmas present this year. She's just about off to the races now. (Thank goodness because bending down to push her was about to make our backs give out.)
