New Toy

We bought Olivia one of those 'popcorn' pulley things that we've all had as kids. Although she loves it...

She will not pull it...

Or push it...

But she will carry it around!

So, I think she only likes it cuz it's new...not because it makes a lot of noise!

Speed Racer

Our good friends, Denny and Veronica, do autocross on the weekends. Last Sunday, we went out to Port Orchard to watch. While Frank was able to be the passenger in Denny's car, Olivia and I sat and watched with Veronica. After all the races were over and, Denny came in First Place, we were able to check out the car and decided it would be a great photo op to put Olivia in her bicycle helment and strap her in the car. Doesn't she look like she's ready to roll?

Speechless...

I just don't have any words to describe this picture...I have to laugh every time I look at it. This is one of her photos from her 11 month photo session. She's so goofy! A friend of mine says that all she needs to complete the look is a leather jacket...

Diggin'

While in Montana, we took a break from visiting family and friends to do a little diggin'. We went to Gem Mountain sapphire mines. We panned and sifted for sapphires...we found a few too! Olivia will have some nice earrings one day...that is, when her daddy lets her get her ears pierced!

God's Canvas

I am always in awe of the beauty that comes from God's hand. These are a few of the sunsets that we enjoyed while in Montana...

Grasshoppa

Here we begin our Montana trip with a couple of pictures of Olivia discovering nature. Liv wasn't too sure about the grasshopper but stared and stared at it...then, she grabbed it!

Here she's trying to figure out grass and discovering the yard. She had a great time!

10 months old!

Well, we're still sorting through our Montana pics but I didn't want to leave you hanging...Olivia has just turned 10 months and here is a photo from her latest photo session.

I can't believe she's 10 months already! She's walking all over, on her own, and we're having a hard time keeping up! She wore shoes for the first time and it was like watching someone walk in flippers. She REALLY didn't like them at first but got used to them by the end of the day. She also has another tooth coming in...on the bottom. That make Bottom Teeth-3, Top Teeth-0. Chewing is a challenge...
