The Best Part

So when I blogged on Saturday, I forgot the best part! Olivia woke up really sweaty on Saturday so I wanted to give her a bath before we got going to see grandpa and grandma. I had Mike strip her down while I filled the bath. I went and grabbed her, walked to the bathroom, and let her stands on the counter so she could see herself. She has always enjoyed looking at herself but almost chuckles when she sees herself naked :-) We had been there for MAYBE two minutes when I figured we should get moving. It was at that point that I realized I forgot a towel to put in the bath so she can't rub her feet. So I told Mike to hold her hands so I could grab one. As I went to put it in the bath, all I heard was, "Ahhhh, ewwww, no, No, NO! Ewwww! I can't believe you! Aly!" I could feel the look he was giving me.As I turned around, Olivia was peeing on the counter and on Mike's foot! Hahaha! It was hilarious! He flips out about her slobber getting in his hand or shirt. So this was PERFECT to get him to realize that it can be worse :) When she stopped, I quickly put her in the bath and as I was washing her, Mike had his foot in the sink and was scrubbing it. Oh how I love the stores :)

Yesterday we went to church with grandpa and grandma and then out to eat. In the parent room, Olivia was able to interact with the other kids better. The "binky stealer", I learned,  is going to be a year old in a couple of days. Olivia is the same size as her if not a little bigger. There was a 5 month old boy laying next to us and that is all they he did. I don't think he is even sitting up yet but his mom said that he is at the point where he is getting frustrated with not being mobile. It really does show you that the kids do grow and advance at their own pace. And whatever that means, it is good for the kid. 

My friend Stephanie recommended a restaurant called Molly's in downtown Spokane. We could not make up our minds so that is where we went. Know, I always assumed it was a run down business on its last leg. BOY WAS I WRONG! The place was packed and the food was great.

Back tracking even more, on Saturday we took grandpa and grandma to the Bowl and Pitcher  at Riverside State Park. It was Olivia's first time there also. This park is a place my family used to go when I was young and it is also where Mike proposed. So you can say that it means a lot to me and my family.

I'm blaming her attitude today on the weather.

Thanks auntie Kim for the onsie! "I just boldly went!" And yes she did :) 

She was fighting with the cats for their toy. She is pretty quick!

Yup. She pulled my earring out, screamed in my face when I took my marker back, and started ripping at my work papers. So I set her on the floor.
