A little of everything

Ok, I'm going to do my best to get caught up with this post and start doing better with pictures and posts! (No promises, though!)

A few things that I want to remember: - About a month ago, Olivia learned my phone number and our address. It happened pretty randomly, as I was on the phone with someone and gave them my number. When I hung up, she said the first couple of numbers of it. I told her a few more times, and she had it memorized in no time! Crazy!

- She loves talking about who is a boy and who is a girl. Lately when we are doing that, I'll ask her what she is and she always says, "I'm a princess". I think I'm going to have my hands full...

- She definitely knows what she wants and doesn't want. In the past couple of weeks, she has started throwing a few fits here and there. Most are minor, but occasionally they involve foot stomping.

- Over the last few days, she has becoming increasingly sweet and cuddly. She LOVES giving me hugs and kisses. I always say, "I love you" and she says, "No, I love YOU". This goes on and on... :)

I don't think I've mentioned lately just how blessed I feel to be able to stay home with her. We are having so much fun right now, and I wouldn't trade it for anything!

Speaking of having fun... Here's a little sampling of what we've been up to:

Having fun with daddy:

The other day I had dinner in the stove. She went over to the stove and tried to open it. I said, "NO! That's HOT!". She replied, "But, it's okay... I'm wearing my oven mitts."

Ok, that catches us up! My mom is flying in on Friday and staying until Wednesday, so I'll update after that. Jon and I are going away for the night Saturday. It will be the first time I've left Olivia overnight...
