Mia's Finger

Mia and I took a trip to the hospital today for a check-up on her finger. It has been so nice over the past month not to have to go there every week. We had to wait for an entire hour past our appointment time in the waiting room before we were seen. Thank goodness Mia is well behaved and just played the entire time. The doc saw us and checked out her finger and said it is all healing nicely. The nail is growing back and it is looking good. He said the swelling/inflammation will probably take about 6 months before it disappears but that is fine. As long as it is healing nicely that is all I care about. What a relief!!

Since Mia was 1 week old she has been part of a study at the University of Queensland on infant imitation/development. Her Godmother Janine is doing her PhD and asked if Mia would be one of her "subjects". Of course I said yes! Now at 18 months Mia had her last testing session at the university the other day. It is amazing to see how her development has progressed through all the stages of testing. Before she was tested we had a walk around outside the university to kill some time and of course I had to get some photos!!







Other than that, a few weeks ago we took Mia for a free photography sitting. The free sitting included us getting a free portrait. Here is the free one we got...


There are 2 more photos that they took that I LOVE so I am hoping to save up enough $ over the next 2-3 months to get both on CD s I can blow them up and put them on the wall of our new house!
