Mia's Motrin

It wouldn't be right blogging about Mia's life without mentioning her Motrin. Yes, as in the medicine. Mia carries around a Motrin bottle with her all the time. I'm not exaggerating. She takes it to the pool, Kindermusik, Nana's house, the lake - and even sleeps with it. It's quite embarrassing - everyone comments on it. This lady at the pool last week was like, "oh, that's the little girl who carries the Motrin everywhere." What's funnier is her little friend Davis, who is 19-months-old, will find her bottle on the floor somewhere, and will bring it to her. He knows it's Mia's. I'm not sure when this started - or even how she got it in the first place. I remember rocking her to sleep a few months ago, and she had "the bottle" in her hand. I took it from her and put it on top of her dresser, and she threw a little (big) fit. I guess I gave in and let her have it - and that was the beginning of this addiction. But, it fits perfectly in her tiny hands - that's why she likes it. I'm on the search for another bottle of the same size so she's not carrying around drugs all the time. If you double-click on the picture, you can see it in her left hand. And, in the right is the little dropper thing - she likes that, too. All I can say is "thank goodness for child-proof caps!"
