On Sunday, Magglio and I attended a birthday party for his friend Mia. Mia turned 1 year old. Mia’s mom, Michelle, is a good friend of mine who I met here in Miami. There are a group of us who hang out quite a bit. They are the same moms who come over for playdates and who attend the baby sign classes. Here we are, holding our darling babies:

Magglio’s favorite part were the balloons. Magglio loooooves ballons! He kept squeezing them, swatting them and biting them. Luckily, nothing popped.

Because it was 85 degrees and we were outside in the hot afternoon sun, I had to unbutton Magglio’s shirt, Miami Vice style.

He didn’t mind, as long as there were balloons to play with. Here he is again, doing his baby model pose.

And here’s Magglio and I with our neighbor, Carolyn, who Magglio adores:

All in all, a very fun day. Here is a picture of Mia, the birthday princess! Happy Birthday Mia!

Magglio is undoubtedly the cutest of them all. I can’t believe how big he is getting to be. Looks like he will be walking in no time….

Okay, is Magglio losing his little baby face, or is it the way you combed his hair?! He’s getting too big too fast!! Still the cutest of all—-
Oh my word, I just want to eat him up! Love the Miami Vice look
