Airplanes & Firetrucks

We took an afternoon trip to the Delaware Airshow- Mia enjoyed seeing the airplanes go "up, up, and away!" Diego got to hang out in the stroller and snooze!




She hopped right into the firetruck and began 'driving'- making BEEP BEEP and VROOOM, VROOOM, noises. ....

Apparently she charmed the PANTS and BOOTS right off of the fireman!

Mia Olympics, Umbrellas, and the girls....

Potty training...

Mia decided she did not want to be the only one potty training, so she enlisted Mr. Butterfly as her first pupil....
