On September 23, my sweet girl turned one. We celebrated with a few friends and family. It was small but Olivia enjoyed all of her gifts. We did a ladybug theme since she is our "little ladybug" complete with a ladybug cake, decorations, and we ate sub sandwhiches, veggies, and chips. YUM! Thank you to everyone who came and celebrated our sweet girl's special day with us. I think it was actually more for me.... :)
These are just a few of her pics from her one year photo shoot done by our Bishop's wife, she was AMAZING!!!
I LOVE these two because she was looking over at mommy and daddy......
Such a little Diva, posing for the camera!
Peek-a-boo, this is my favorite picture of her in the rocking chair......
I really liked the rocking chair, but she wasn't content sitting in it for us, she kept trying to get out.
We wanted to do some pics with some of her ladybug stuff, a hat and her pillow pet.
These are pictures from her party.
This is a center piece I made for the table.....
This is her cake made by my friend's sister Lauryn.... It was delicious and turned out so cute!!!
Daddy, Mommy, and the cute birthday girl!
She wasn't sure what to do with the cake at first, but she eventually got the hang of it.
Olivia at one..............
*She has 5 teeth, at first she only had one tooth up top but on the left side and one tooth on the bottom middle right.....so she had a "snaggle" tooth.
*She LOVES to eat........She can eat a full meal and 5 minutes later, if she sees food she wants it.
*She is such a sweetheart, yet she already has a super sassy personality.
*She knows how to defend herself.........she has three older brothers so it's to be expected.
*She can walk, however she chooses not to, she is completely content with being carried or crawling.
*She loves to dance, if she hears music her head starts bobbing and she starts moving.
*She is still wearing 9 months and some 12 months......sometimes 18 months for leggings so that they are long enough.....
*She weighs 17 lbs. 12.5 oz, which has dropped her down back into the 3rd percentile (we are now doing blood tests, etc to see if there is something going on)
*Sleeps through the night in her room
*She is completely weaned from nursing, and she has never taken a bottle. She drinks everything straight from her sippy cup or sometimes mom's cup and then mom doesn't drink anymore. :)
*She has so many nicknames..... Livvie, Liv, Diddy, Diddia, Wivvia, Chunka buns, Chunka Monka, Baby bit, Bitty, Bitty bit. (Nicknames like Diddy, Diddia, and Wivvia are all from big brother Ande, he still can't say Olivia, but he sure tries)
*She fake cries if she doesn't get what she wants
*She absolutely adores daddy and most men actually
*She is not too fond of women, especially if mommy is around
*Olivia has a daily schedule that is followed pretty accurately, unless we are running around......She wakes up at 6:30 or 7:00, eats breakfast, takes a nap at 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m., eats lunch, plays, takes another nap at 2:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. eats dinner, plays, and goes down to bed at 8:30.
*She likes to babble in her little baby language
*Says "da-da" and "ma-ma" and sometimes it sounds like she is saying "stop" when her older siblings are annoying her, but not sure.
Here is a little video that just shows her little personality
