It's a Bird, It's a Plane...

Nope, it's just Olivia crawling at the speed of lightning!

Watch out Barbie shoes, speaker wires and little crumbs everywhere....she's on the move!

Boy she caught on to that quick! She really just took off this week and now can cross the room in the turn of a head!

The Bubble & The Ant

Naomi was waiting patiently for her turn to speak at the dinner table the other night as each of her sisters took turns telling their "stories" of their day. She must have been mentally taking note of the most affective way to get the most attention from her audience as each of the girls spoke because when it came to her turn to talk, she told this story with her eyes wide and her arms outstretched dramatically, "There was this big bubble... and inside the bubble there was an ant. The bubble went up, up, up, up, up and into my mouth . Then the bubble popped! And the ant held onto my tongue and I said 'ANT GET OUT OF MY MOUTH!!' And he did ."

Olivia Waves Hello

I can't believe how fast Livi is learning! She's already crawling, playing with toys and interacting with her sisters. At just about 7 months old she's started to say "Kitty" and wave at us when we say Hi.

Olivia loves to eat. She knows that it's mealtime when she sits in the highchair and will protest and carry on if I don't have her food waiting for her. Livi just tried a blueberry muffin for the first time this week and she gobbled down every last crumb! Still no teeth but the bottom two are starting to dimple on the gum line. I'm sure it will be any day and it's about time because at the rate she's going she sure can use them now!

Molly Watching and More

Livi's latest favorite pastime is watching Molly. She loves to see her bound up and down the stairs, come inside or even just sit at the door and watch her meowing. It's just about the only thing that keeps her continually distracted from wanting Mommy to pick her up (as if I can blamer her nowadays) because...

Naomi's latest favorite pastime is pestering Olivia! She loves to hug her, hold her, move her hands, feed her and do just about any kind of experimenting with what she can and cannot do to poor Livi. This week has not gone so well with numerous time outs for picking Livi up (by the neck), feeding Olivia (a pumkin seed and an attempted peanut), and being too rough with her (sitting on her back). Once these small boundaries are set, I'm sure we'll all have more fun! Its amazing how quickly I can forget these trying stages.
