New Year New Blog


I am a terrible mother, I promised myself that my New Years Resolution would be to make a weekly entry into Olivia's blog but sleep is sounding so much better. Olivia is more mobile than ever, not quite walking but crawling everywhere. She is so much fun. She has become a little person now, and I hate not playing with her.
To catch up my blog, Olivia is 11 months old. She has 4 teeth total (2top and 2 bottom), the teeth beside the top two are starting to push through. Surprisingly she is not too fussy. She seems to get a warm from time to time from her teeth, but overall they don't seem to bother her.
Olivia has graduated from army crawling to knee crawling and she is unstoppable. Jonathan and I are learning very fast what has to be baby proofed. She is able to get to her feet as long as her hand is on something. I think it is all a security blanket for her, but I feel like it is days away when she is running around the house. She took 3 studder steps towards me last week, and again yesterday. I hope she is walking before her 1st birthday. Maybe she will join us in the limbo line.
Her first birthday, wow! We decided not to do a traditional 1st birthday, because we are not only celebrating her first year, but ours for making it through. I was so nervous to be a mom, but it is by far the most rewarding thing I have done with my life. The way she smiles and screams when she sees me is so amazing. Sorry, back to the party. So we decided on a Hawaiian Luau. I am so excited for her party, and did some decoration shopping today.
Well this is a restart for Olivia's blog and I will diligently try to post weekly. Thanks for reading!
