Happy Fourth of July


We hung out at the park to celebrate Olivia's first 4th of July.



It is a really big park and we thought Olivia would like to play on the grass with everyone else or swing in the hammocks, but she headed straight to the railing along the river and didn't want to leave. She had such a fun time!




Our Little Girl!

Our sweet Olivia has grown so much these past 12 months.

What a blessing she has been in our lives!

Happy Birthday Olivia!
I can't believe that our little girl is one. Time has gone by too quickly. I am so glad that I have been able to be at home with her and watch her grow up so much this past year

We decorated the house for Olivia when she woke up-she really loved playing with the streamers.

We really wanted to plan a very fun day for Olivia. If she wasn't sleeping we are all having fun together. We started the morning by playing at the new park in front of our apartment.


Next we went to the zoo at Central Park. She loved the penguin exhibit. Here she is walking around the jungle exhibit with dad.


We knew her birthday wouldn't be complete if she didn't have a chance to play with some dogs.

We got Olivia a life-size Cocker Spaniel for her birthday. She gets really excited while playing with the dog- she really seems to like it. For some reason she enjoys picking the dog up over her head and slamming it on the ground-she's very strong.

Olivia thoroughly enjoyed squishing her cake between her fingers.....



feeding her cake to others........

smearing the cake over her body, but would not even consider taking one single bite herself.

We had a wonderful day with Olivia. We love her so much!
