I finally posted!

I haven't posted in a while, and I'm not quite sure where to start! Olivia is 7-months-old now, and she has changed so much in just one month.

She is now sitting up all by herself (although we still surround her with pillows in case of the occasional tip-over). She is a total babbler, and is constantly stringing together syllables.


Olivia still loves bathtime. She can be as fussy as can be, and the second we bring her upstairs and she hears the bath water running, she calms down immediately gets very smiley.


We've had a lot of fun introducing Olivia to new foods. So far she has had rice cereal, oatmeal, apples, pears, peaches, avocados, peas, zuchini, squash, sweet potatoes, and carrots.

Jeremy and I have had a lot of fun watching the Olympics. Olivia has vegged out watching them, too.

Olivia loves doggies. She has spent some time with my parents' two dogs, and my in-laws' two dogs, and she loves them. She gets so excited when she sees them, that she shakes and pants. She'll squeal at them and "pat" them and grab their hair. All four of them are so good with her, too.

**I've been holding off on posting this because I wanted to put a picture in RIGHT HERE of Olivia with the dogs, but my mom won't send them to me. :)**

Olivia and I took a short weekend trip to California to visit my parents while Jeremy was in Atlanta for a water gardening conference. While we were there, we got some professional pictures taken of Olivia. Here are some of our favorites...
