Princess Olivia

Liv is extremely into princesses these days, often referring to herself as "Princess Olivia" and her brother, "Prince Grahamie." So as a treat, we bought the Cinderella DVD to have a movie night. She loved every second of it (except when she cried when Cinderella left her glass slipper behind and her fancy dress disappeared).

Kohl Children Museum

Fun morning being vets and grocery shoppers together.

Revived and Relaxed

Our quick trip to Mexico was perfect. We slept, ate, drank, spa'ed and got a little burnt in the warm sun. Happy early 5th anniversary to us! Now back to our sweet and crazy babies!!

Mickey Mouse Birthday Playdate

With 16 kids under the age of 4 and 9 adults/mamas, the crazy Mickey Mouse birthday playdate was a success!

 

(Kate, Abby, Maddie, Abby, Maura, Liv, Max, Emmett, JJ, Graham, Violet, Owen, Jimmy and Teddy in the front-- and Charlie got cut off on the left!)

Poor Mickey took a beating, but a good time was had by all!

Our Golden Girl

Olivia's 3rd birthday today marked her "golden birthday," and it's fair to say that she shines like gold in our eyes. Between her big girl bed and potty usage, Miss Olivia is officially loving her independence and status as a big girl. We are so incredibly proud of the little lady she is and love witnessing all her new achievements. She is the best big sister to "Grahamie," a loving and obsessed cousin, and wonderful friend to her little buddies.

All day she kept saying, "I am really happy."  What more could a mommy ask for.  We love you Livie! Happy happiest birthday my sweet girl!
