Staying inside

With many cool, windy and wet days this month Mia has to stay indoors quite often. So it helps a bit that she is getting more interested in her picture books. She liked to point out the animals there, for example the cats that look lile Mr Mimi.
She also enjoys her musical toys, especially her singing bear


She is still not really interested in a newspaper - even if it has some pictures:
