My Baby is growing up...

No pictures this time...sorry :( . I have been kind of slacking on the pictures. I had really great intentions of taking some on Thanksgiving and didnt even get my camera out of the diaper bag!! We have been very busy trying to keep up with Olivia these days! She is into EVERYTHING!

First thing is that Olivia climbed out of her crib the other day!!! All by herself, there were no toys near here or anything!! I can't believe she figured out how to do that already, she is only 13 months old!!! So we have lowered it down to the last level and I am really hoping that this will hold off the toddler bed for a couple more months!! Wish me luck with that.

I am officially trying to "de-baby" the house. Olivia is on her second night bottle free!! WAHOO!! She's doing great so those are all packed up and ready to store! All the baby toys are packed up, and the baby clothes... Now we just need to get rid of the pacifier (soon...springtime), diapers, and the crib (but like I said I can wait on that!!!)

She is starting to talk more and say things (or attempt to say things). She says, Mama, Dada, Baby, PaPa, ball and still "gog". Her newest is "whats this?" while holding or pointing to something. (She points at EVERYTHING) Its funny because it doesnt sound like "whats this" it sounds more like "oh shit" and she repeats it about 20 times per item!

All in all we are enjoying her, she gets funnier and cuter everyday. And I almost forgot to say that this kid can EAT!! Thats all she does...eat, eat, eat, ALL.DAY.LONG! For breakfast she eats a breakfast bar, a WHOLE banana and sometimes still wants something else! And so far she is not picky either, she will eat almost anything you give her! Just have to keep an eye on her...she got hives from Thanksgiving dinner. Not sure what was in it that made her break out but we will be keeping an eye on that! Will post pics next time!

Halloween and Other Happenings

Ooops! It appears time has gotten away from me. Been quite some time since I have posted an update! Halloween has come and gone...She had soo much fun dressed as a ladybug. We did go trick or treating to a few houses and got some candy. And I even let her eat some of it!! Note to self: 1 year olds are not AT ALL interested in carving pumpkins!!! lol the pic is decieving! Aside from Halloween we have been really busy. Trying hard to stay in touch with everyone and getting things done. I have been working alot. Olivia has 2 new teeth, on the bottom for a total of 8. She is walking/running all over the house. She loves playing with Emma. Her favorite song is the Black Eyed Peas, "I Gotta Feelin" and she will dance to that everytime she hears it. The past week she has done nothing but eat. I mean that too....today her and her friend Dominic polished off an ENTIRE can of Gerber crunchies! (cheese puffs) She is getting bigger and cuter by the day! We are down to 1 bottle a day. She is also suddenly becoming more attached to her "blankie" which at this point she has a few different favorites! We have even been lucky enough to enjoy some time outside as we have had a handful of 60 degree days. Other than that she is her same cute, quirky self!
