16 Months, Week 1


















Welcome to the sweet 16 (months that is!).  And what a sweet 16 months it has been.  With each passing month, I'm just so amazed at how quickly the time is flying by.   She looks less and less like a baby and so much more like a kid!



It's also getting to be more and more fun to take her places. On Saturday night after Mass we went to dinner at P.F. Chang's.  Olivia was so well behaved!  She also attempted to use chopsticks...perhaps, one day she will be better with them than I am!














Olivia also got to have her first fortune cookie.  It said, "You are a lover of words, someday you should write a book."  She certainly has a lot on her mind so perhaps she will be an author one day!













The next day, we went to celebrate our good friend Isabelle's first birthday!  It was such a fun party, but I only managed to get one picture of the two of them together.  Isabelle was such a pretty princess and so kind to share her new toys with Olivia.  Apparently we need to buy Olivia a baby carriage of her own.


















We've also reached that fun point in the year where we have to dress in layers because there is usually at least a 20 degree swing in the temperature from the morning when we leave to when we come home at night.  Olivia doesn't seem to mind though!  She's also much more of a morning person than her mommy!


















This week we also went to visit our old friends at Mommy & Me. One of the moms and her little boy are relocating to Texas and we went to say good bye. Now that Olivia has weaned herself and is done nursing, we don't go to Mommy and Me very often so it was fun to some of our old friends and lactation consultants. Of course, I was also very happy to get to weigh her once again. Skinny Minnie checked in at 23 pounds, 3 ounces. I thought for sure she would weigh more because she seems to be outgrowing lots of her clothes lately.


Maybe all the yogurt is what's helping her to outgrow those clothes.  She may be skinny, but this girl can eat!  And by golly, she's going to do it by herself!
