Mio is quite the little performer these days! Every day she entertains us and makes us smile and laugh with all her dancing, singing, acting, and jokes!
Dancing with her wand
Twirls and spins
She loves being a “princess”
It was only a matter of time before she fell in love with Frozen…
A distracted alphabet song performance…
Let’s try this again…
Looking very 80s with this frazzled look… a result of her recent obsession with headbands.
She also likes to sing Japanese songs… though she doesn’t always get the lyrics right…
I helped her out a little the second time. 😉
Singing 「ã¨ã‚“ã¼ã®ã‚ãŒãã€
Encore!
She likes to shout, “tongue’s blue!” and show her tongue after eating blue popsicles, lollipops, etc…
She wanted me to join in this selfie.
Mio selfies: Smiles one moment, mean-muggin’ the next.
Mio’s funny video message to Grandma and Auntie Miwa who were in Japan at the time:
HUGE smiles when I made her her favorite California rolls for lunch. (Note the Mirei photobomb!)
Mio was playing with my socks here. She took of my sock and her sock, and switched them so that she put her sock on my foot, and my sock on her foot… silly girl.
Wearing a crab hat from a Japanese restaurant:
Pretending to be Max from Where the Wild Things Are: “Be still!”
Ready to star in “Singing in the Rain”!
Playing make-believe with her Minnie Mouse(s):
Donning her kitty earmuffs and a table runner as a shawl.
Climbing up on the changing table and pretending it’s her “new bed.”
Wild child!
Making a “diamond” with a DVD case:
“Orange tongue!” edition
Mustached Mio
It’s really a joy to see Mio’s personality coming out more and more every day.
Today, I found Mio playing with her toy banjo and singing — she sang “Baa Baa Black Sheep,” the alphabet song, and then “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” on her own, without me saying anything. I thought it was really interesting that she happened to pick those three particular songs and sang them consecutively, one after another. Could it be that she’s figured out that they all share the same melody?
