Build a Bear

Grandma decided that it would be great fun to take all the grandkids to Build a Bear the day after Thanksgiving to make a cuddly friend. It was quite an adventure! Olivia choose a cute monkey to take home with her.

A New Way to Ride

Well.. the big change has happend. No more sweet little baby car seat. We have moved on to the big car seat... the big girl car seat. I admit I got a bit misty eyed while putting her in it this morning.

Even Princesses Have Bad Days

First Taste of Winter

Literally! Olivia had her first taste of fresh Michigan snow today. Of course she loved being outside even if it was snowy and cold. Looks like we are going to have a fun winter with our little snow bunny!

11 Months Old!

Wow!!! Eleven months old already! Look at how big our girl is getting. She is changing so much and learning so many new things it is hard to keep our eyes off of her. She has 4 little teeth that are cute as be, her first steps are only days away and she is slowly taking herself off of baby food. She is growing up into a toddler! She has a great sense of humor and loves to play games. The magnets on the fridge are the current obsession so we spend lots of time on the kitchen floor taking magnets off and putting them back on the fridge. She absolutely LOVES other kids and has so much fun going to school everyday. Only one more month until we have a ONE YEAR OLD on our hands. Happy 11 months sweetie pie! We love you!
