But it won't hold her down!
Our precious little girl came down with a cold this week :-( it has been sad to listen to her sniffle all day and even worse when she would try to nurse and have to stop frequently in order to gasp for air before trying to latch back on. We have a nasal aspirator, which I call a snot sucker, that I tried to use the other day. Let's just say that she does not like it at sll. Screaming... thrashing... and all dad and I were trying to do was help her breathe. We gave up. However, I made use of the baby monitor at night though. Because she sleeps just on the other side of a door I have not been using the baby monitor. When she got sick I plugged it in because I want to be able to hear her.
This weekend Olivia got to go through a corn maze, carried of course, play with pumpkins, and meet grandpa Randy's horse! Even though she was sick, she had a great time. There were moments when she was more relaxed and snuggly but there were many more where she just wanted to be on the go again. At the corn maze, we were able to witness and celebrate the engagement of our friends Kellie and Tim. What a wonderful moment to be a part of! This corn was way more green than the corn maze we went through last year in Spokane.
The other morning when she woke up, I felt like she grew a couple inches over night! She is looking so tall these days. Facebook has been showing me my posts from a year ago and it truly is amazing how much babies grow in a year. We have a toddler! Let's just slow it down a little please.

Grandma Sheila found another play place that we tried in Gig Harbor. This one cost a little but for Oliva, adults were free, and it was worth it! Olivia loved it. There was an open play area, a sandbox with Moon Sand, and a very realistic store set up. Here are a couple of pictures. It is not a place we would go to all the time but maybe for a one-on-one play date or a rainy day when we want to get out. At this place es, it also be a use very apparent that Olivia loves to entertain and really likes older boys. I told Mike he better keep a close eye on her! There were these two boys, probably kindergarten aged, who Olivia was yachting at and trying to make laugh. They went along with it and she had a great time.

| Look at the determination on that face! Watch out! She is on a mission! |
We are looking forward to getting healthy this week, returning to play dates, and seeing daddy tomorrow.
