First Steps!

Olivia's first steps caught on video, though dad doesn't agree.  Then repeated when Papa-J and Mama-J were over.  Mom and dad had a quick date night to play some pool in Sunnyvale.  I can't remember the last time we went out together the two of us.  How lovely!   We have to find a way to make this more of a regular thing. 

Love the new padded playmat.  Thank you neighbors for the idea.  Olivia is more confident on it too.
Olivia won't let go of her little Kong balls, so I'm still using them in the car.  Poor Trixie is so confused.  Olivia chases her down to get the balls back, and has now started crying just to get Trixie's toys.  Trixie has a new trick - jumping up on Kevin's desk to look out the front window. She's wreaked havoc on his computer.  It's pretty funny.

I'm on my way to Connecticut and Massachusetts for work.  I'll bet Olivia will really be walking when I return.  Good luck to Kevin in my absence!













Last night was dinner for Papa-J's birthday.  Olivia loves being the center of attention!
The last big beam of the pergola is up and the next step is all the cross beams.  It's looking good!
Otherwise, a good weekend with a little tummy trouble, but mostly happy Olivia.
I'm thinking I'll be falling asleep on this plane.


I keep meaning to mention that Olivia helps out with getting dressed.  She knows one arm, then the other.  She also LOVES the sweater that Mum Mums made her.  When I go to take it off, Olivia gets so upset!   When she sees the sweater across the room, she'll call for it.  Too cute.

Olivia also has learned a few signs... she's very good at the "more" sign when she's hungry.  We are working on "all done" and "stop".
