Say CHEESE

Olivia has become quite the poser, if you catch her in the right mood of course!!

She really likes to think she is taking some of the pictures...

and then will smile for another camera!


Somedays we get a very big smile...

And others we get pretty poses!

This picture is one of my favorites because the light was just right to catch those big blues!

Olivia's New Places

Olivia has really been coming up with some crazy places to play lately, on this day she decided to empty all of Bailey's toys out of the basket and then

proceeded to squeeze herself in....

She actually sat like this for quite a while and played.

A few days later I could hear chattering but couldn't see her, so I went searching, sure enough she had found a new place to hang out in the bathroom....
She was very proud of herself!

She has also figured out if Mommy & Daddy put something out of her reach on the table she can just scoot behind the couch and get it anyways!!

Tag - Sort Of :)

My friend Steph Tagged me to do this and I thought it was interesting so I will try and be original!

1. I like cleaning my house. As long as I am left alone and no one is bothering me or interrupting me. I will gladly clean when I am home alone, but if someone else is home and just sitting around I get irritated!

2. I love my family and wish they lived closer to me but I know I will never move back to Devils Lake. I am thankful that some of them live in Fargo. I am so proud of all of my family and I know I don' t tell them how proud of them I am or how much I love them often enough.

3. I struggle with change. I hate when things change and have trouble adapting. Even small changes. I guess I was lucky growing up and had a very stable life.

4. I am afraid of birds. I think this stems from two things. At my parents house when we go for walks in certain areas birds dive bomb you. 2. in college a bird fell out of a tree and grabbed onto my shirt as he fell. ICKY ICKY!

5. I hate clowns. Don't ask why I don't know but I can't stand them. They are irritating and I hope to never have to have a clown for any of Olivia's birthdays.

6. I love to shop. It is probably an addicition and anyone who has spent time with me has probably witnessed this.

7. I love to read but hate going to the library in Wahpeton.

I don't know who to tag so I will challenge all who read this blog.

What would I do with out Bailey???

So one day I was eating a snack....
when oops I spilled some on my leg....
Not to worry, Bailey to the rescue! She cleaned me all up!!

I found this cool drawer under my crib, for my babies to sleep in!

Labor Day Weekend!

Mommy & I went to the Zoo, I loved the bears! They were really putting on a show!
I even peeked in the photo stand!
Then we hung out in the back yard on the slide
