Mia Monday #20: This Cute is Worth Waiting For Edition
Most pictures by Chris, but I put on her sunscreen and her bathing suit. Ah, division of labor.
Posted by Beth at May 30, 2006 02:19 PMLovely! Nothing better than a chubby baby in a pink bathing suit!!
Posted by: JuJuBee at May 30, 2006 02:25 PMSo cute. I almost bought the same suit at Target. What size is she now? Super cute. I am sure she had a bunch of fun. I bet it was hot out there in the sun but looks like they have a shallow part which is good for Mia!
Posted by: Lisa at May 30, 2006 02:28 PMVery cute! and yes, worth waiting for.
How did she like the water though? She doesn't looked as excited as I thought she would.
Posted by: fauve at May 30, 2006 02:36 PMLove the look. Did she have fun?
Posted by: cas at May 30, 2006 02:38 PMI love the little model pose she's giving against the railing - what a beauty!
Posted by: Beth in StL at May 30, 2006 02:38 PMWhat a cute little bathing suit... Ahhhh I wish chubby little thighs were as cute on a 30yr old (me) as they are on here hahaha
Posted by: Stephanie at May 30, 2006 02:43 PMHoly Smokes, she's cute!!! Love the bathing suit!!!!! :) Hope you all enjoy you week...
Posted by: Corinne at May 30, 2006 02:49 PMAwww, how cute is she!! And she's SO big!! I can't believe how fast they grow. Looks like you all had a great time in the swimming pool.
Posted by: Sweety at May 30, 2006 02:49 PMaww too cute
Posted by: christie at May 30, 2006 02:53 PMsoooo cute. definately worth the wait!
Posted by: suze at May 30, 2006 03:13 PMDid she enjoy the giant bathtub?
Posted by: Jaycie at May 30, 2006 03:20 PMI think I just got a cavity but it was worth it! Awesome.
Posted by: patricia at May 30, 2006 03:21 PMThat outfit totally SCREAMS for waterwings!!
Ah, I remember my water wing days. The over protective mother handing me water wings and floatation devices while simultaneously slathering my entire body in spf 100 suntan lotion and wrapping me in a beach towel.
On second thought...just throw her in a pool, what happens, happens. ;)
She's totally posing in the third one. Just from all this picture taking, she's gonna grow up to be a supermodel or something. Hopefully by then they'll have figured out that you must eat to sustain life. And Mia will bring back chubby thighs, because OMG the cuteness.
Posted by: Heather at May 30, 2006 03:25 PMdid she love it?
Posted by: Pamalamadingdong at May 30, 2006 03:31 PMOh my - the leg rolls! I can't stand the cuteness. I almost tried squeezing them through my monitor!
Posted by: Traci at May 30, 2006 03:33 PMWow, little Gertie is like an actual KID now.
And you're smokin' in your bathing suit, even if you did try to crop the rest of you out (which I'm totally guilty of doing this weekend as well).
Posted by: RockStar Mommy at May 30, 2006 03:52 PMOhhh the chubby legs. I love the chubby legs.
Posted by: Melissa at May 30, 2006 03:59 PMOMG, that top picture? She is sooo lovely. You need to get this kid into modeling (kidding).
Posted by: Jen at May 30, 2006 04:20 PMIve always been curious about diapers and pools. Do you use the diapers made for swimming? Do you think they really control everything from escaping?
Posted by: alfredsmom at May 30, 2006 04:24 PMHow come fat chubby thigh rolls are so absolutely delightful in the very young and yet lose their charm as you age?
Posted by: Shelly at May 30, 2006 04:25 PMI am a sucker for chunky leggies. My son's got chunky thighs but I think she's got him beat.
Posted by: mama_tulip at May 30, 2006 04:44 PMAAAHH! my eyes!! too cute to look directly at!!
Posted by: b. at May 30, 2006 04:48 PMyou're right, it was worth waiting for.
definitely.
oy, oy, oy! Too cute!
Posted by: hoverland at May 30, 2006 04:52 PMThat is just the cutest thing ever. Seriously. She looks slightly unsure of the water but very interested in the toys in that last picture!
Posted by: Sparkle Pants at May 30, 2006 05:03 PMOMG, she's so cute that I might ovulate.
Too, too incredibly cute.
Posted by: Carmen at May 30, 2006 05:08 PMTotally worth the wait. Don't you love how dads get out of the tricky jobs like sunscreen?
Posted by: Annie at May 30, 2006 05:56 PMShe is too cute in her swimsuit!
Posted by: Kelley at May 30, 2006 06:36 PMMan! She is absolutely delicious!
Posted by: Susan at May 30, 2006 07:07 PMMan! She is absolutely delicious!
Posted by: Susan at May 30, 2006 07:07 PMYep! Totally worth waiting for!
Posted by: jessica at May 30, 2006 07:18 PM*slurp* Ate her.
Posted by: shelley at May 30, 2006 07:22 PMI am blinded by the cute and now must use a guide dog to find my pants. And the bows! God...the bows are killing me. She's got a future as a catalog model. She's got those poses down cold!
Posted by: wordgirl at May 30, 2006 09:06 PMI keep trying to think of new words for beautiful. Oh well, that she is.
Posted by: ann adams at May 30, 2006 10:22 PMI love the little ruffle on the suit, not to mention the matching bow!
Oh, but those chubby thighs... her cheeks are so hard to resist but those little rolls on her legs might have them beat!
Queen B and her cousin have always been so lanky that I just haven't had any good baby chub to nibble on. *sigh*
Posted by: Kate the Shrew at May 30, 2006 11:47 PMShe is just soo cute! Look at those chubby legs. You just want to nibble on them.
Posted by: Red at May 31, 2006 06:42 AMThat third picture is my favorite!
Posted by: Fraulein N at May 31, 2006 08:45 AMWhat a little cutie! And there was no division of labor, you had to get a wiggling infant into a bathing suit and lather her with lotion without her eating it...all Chris had to do was take pictures of a subject that couldn't take a bad picture if she tried. (Both you and Mia).
Posted by: Krush at May 31, 2006 09:50 AMoh THANK YOU - I'm genuinely grinning for the first time in two days. There's nothing like a happy chubby cherubic looking baby (in swim gear!) to make you forget lame-o grown-up worries for a while.
Posted by: Betti at May 31, 2006 10:54 AMok i've been lurking for awhile at you and your husband's blogs but i must finally say gosh darn that is one cute kid ya got there.
Posted by: pandora at May 31, 2006 12:22 PMShe is SO cute! I mean, baby-magazine-cover cute! I love that first-pool experience when they're like, WTF?! and then WHOA this is cool! :)
Posted by: Kimberly at May 31, 2006 01:24 PMSO CUTE. Love those thighs of hers..
Posted by: hipmamab at June 1, 2006 01:23 AMSoooooooooo cute! I too was blessed with the chubby legs as a baby, there is nothing more adorable! Glad you all had a great time. :)

Posted by: Tuesday at June 1, 2006 09:55 AMAdorable. I miss my chubby little baby girl. For some reason, she decided to grow up to be an 8 year old. Grrrr. Darn her.
Posted by: Island Girl at June 1, 2006 11:47 AMShe is so adorable! It actually looks like shes striking a pose in the first photo. :)
