Chatty Cathy!

Sorry for taking so long. Olivia has been fighting a cold, croup and now a dry cough so I wasn't exactly getting prize winning photos of her lately. But perhaps her sore throat is a result of all of the talking she has been doing lately. Not everything is a clear word but she tries to repeat everything she hears now. It is so fun to hear. And if she can't say a word, she finds another way to communicate her thoughts. Mike was getting her ready for bed and he pulled out her butterfly pjs. Olivia said no and started scratching under her arms and making monkey sounds. She wanted to wear her pjs that have monkeys all over them.

Another cute story....she was standing on the kitchen table bench with me (well, I was sitting of course, not standing. Don't want you to think we get completely out of control when Mike leaves us alone for the day.) and I picked up my cup to take a drink. She grabbed her bib that was laying on the table and ran over to me to put it under my chin like I do to her when she practices using a cup. It was so cute.

We're getting ready for Easter now. Babi bought Olivia a BEAUTIFUL Easter dress so I'll be sure to take lots of pictures of that.
