I'll tumble 4 ya...
So Olivia gave us quite a scare this weekend.
On Saturday, I was out mowing the lawn, and Melissa was holding Olivia on the couch. When I was done, Livs was asleep, and I was around the house just doing stuff. She woke up soon after that, and was down on the floor, walking and playing. We don't watch her like a hawk anymore since she just walks into rooms and grabs some toys to play with. But when I heard the gate that we have at the top of the stairs swing open, then I ran out. I guess with Olivia sleeping and me doing stuff, I didn't lock the gate, and of course she noticed this and went that way. When I ran out there, the girl already went down two step (which was amazing that she got down there), and when I ran towards her to get her off the stairs, she probably thought I was playing, and she lunged forward and rolled all the way down the stairs! I ran down and picked her up immediately, and she let out the biggest cry. No damage was done, and she was probably just in shock and scared, but it really scared the hell out of me! She was lucky she was already sitting on a stair and didn't try to just walk down... that might have been a worse spill!
Everyone I've spoken to since it happened has told me that either they fell down some stairs as a baby or their kid fell down the stairs. So there is nothing to worry about!
And here's a picture of Livvies from Sunday - of course the fall didn't affect her cuteness at all. :)

More pictures.
Since my blog has now become an Olivia photo album, I thought I'd post some more pictures, taken from the past few weeks/months.
A lovely view of the beach on the Cape. I wish I was there right now, instead of being at work.
Mommy, Livvies and Daddy.
Livvies and Mommy. The two cutest faces in the world.
Grampy, Livvies and Grammy.
Livvies with her cute little smile.
Livvies in her pack n' play - that sleeper looks so cute on her!
Livvies taking a little nap on the couch.
Livvies and her new car seat - forward facing!
And look how big she is getting! Of course she has to have toys in both of her hands...
Look at Livvies walking! With the toys in her hands!
Livvies finds Daddy very amusing!
And fially, Livvies in a very adorable little dress. Am I lucky or what? :)

Long overdue post.
So we had a successful birthday party for Olivia - I was busy most of the time grilling and cleaning up her highchair after she got cake everywhere. It was extremely cute - we bought her a tiny cake to destroy, and at first she didn't know what to do with it, looking confused, but then she had fun. Here some pictures from her birthday...
