Pigtails and some funnies.

 

Yes, it is true, she now can have pigtails.

I think her daily head massages worked:)

Ahhh I just love this cute girl.

She's kind of looking like a toddler now.

And definitely acting like one!

Where to begin.

This one is a such a spunky little thing and keeps us on our toes every second she is awake.

Let me just share a few funnies.

So, she has this cute little toothbrush that she loves to brush her teeth with.

Every morning we go into the bathroom and brush our teeth together.

Well after a few days  of watching me she has become a pro at the whole thing.

I was brushing my teeth and leaned over the sink to spit.  As I looked up, I saw her squat right next to me and make the exact sound and spit right onto the floor. 

She was so dang proud of herself.

And I'm not going to lie, despite the puddle of spit on the floor I was proud too.

So every morning when we brush, she proudly does her little squat and spit every time I do.

I love it!

As I'm sure I've shared in previous posts, she can be a bit violent.

Which I will admit she got from me.

(It's a little embarrassing watching my family videos!)

So...she was nicely playing with her toys as Michael and I were sitting on the carpet next to her watching.

Well Michael decided to grab her and put her on his stomach.

Well she was not happy about this at all and immediately started squeeling and flopping around.

(Michael was in a teasing mood and wouldn't let her down.)

So I stepped in to save her and told him to let her go.

So he did.

And just as she sat up she lifted her little arm up and slapped him right in the face.

And this wasn't just a little baby slap.

It was a full on loud hard slap.

Well what we should have done was grabbed her arm and told her "No, do not hit daddy."

But we couldn't.

We were both practically rolling on the floor with laughter.

Sad, bad parent award right here.

Well after a couple seconds we realized we better get control of ourselves so that we could try and help teach her not to hit.

I have no idea how we are going to teach this child if every time she does something naughty we laugh.

It is just so dang funny to see this little mini thing be so stubborn and get so mad.

But we will do better:)

She can also be very loving at the same time. She loves to give long tight hugs.

I think that might be one reason behind the hitting. Because she knows right after she hits that she needs to say sorry and give a big hug.

Maybe that's why she hits?!

Olivia loves to play peekaboo with Michael before bed.

Michael will say, "Where's Olivia?" 

And she will pull the covers over her little head and then pull them down when he says, "there she is!!"

Well one afternoon, they were playing and after a couple times he said, "Where's Olivia?"

And no response.

So he said it again.

And nothing.

So, he lifted back the covers and she was completely zonked haha.

Funny little thing.

Anytime she sees a door open  she will immediately run over to it and close it no matter what she is doing.

Lately, she likes to say "num num" after she eats something good.

She sounds exactly like one of those wookie bears from Starwars haha.

We have this full length mirror right outside our bedroom.

She loves to look at herself in it right before bathtime.

She will stand right in front of it and say, "mee."

She also likes to suck her little Budda tummy in and out and give herself kisses.

That's all for now.

I know there's more.

Cause every moment with that girl is simply the best.

She is always putting a smile on her dad and I's face.

We love her so very much.

And feel so blessed that she's ours.
