19 Months, Week 4


















 Ah, home sweet home!  We had so, so much fun on our travels but it's always nice to come home and sleep in your own bed.  We also discovered Olivia had expanded her vocabulary. While I'm always happy to hear her say new words, I was a little less than thrilled to hear her say, "NO!" and "MY!"  It didn't help that she was also cutting another tooth.  Ah the joys of toddlerhood!




















We were home just long enough to unload the car from our travels before Olivia and I were off again.  I was excited to start what I hope will be an annual tradition with the girls in our family.  Grandma Sue, Grammy Banks, Aunt Miranda, Amelia, Olivia, and I went for lunch the L.S. Ayres Tea Room at the Indiana State Museum.  It was very fun to get dressed up and enjoy a yummy lunch with just the ladies!




It also gave "the twins" a little more time to spend together.  All three kiddos played so well together, but it was really fun to watch the girls together!  You can definitely see the family resemblance when you look at the two of them.  Plus, Grammy Banks and I had a lot fun shopping for matching ensembles for them.  Thank you, Grammy Banks!



















 Daddy and Grandpa also got the new kitchen Olivia received from Grampy and Grammy for Christmas assembled. It didn't take long to see how much she loves it!  So far, her specialties are alphabet soup and cookies.


Since I was off for the rest of the week, we also got to have a play date with Miss Nichole and Izzy.  We were hoping to get outside and play in the snow, but it was just too darn cold.  Instead we stayed inside and as usual they figured out how to cook up lots of fun!
