Looking at the fish with Papa
Sharing birthday cake with Daddy
One of the horses at Centennial park
Soon after our trip, Olivia turned 2 years old. We celebrated the actual day with just the three of us and Olivia got a few things to redecorate her room. Well actually, we only redecorated half her room because the other half will be for her new baby brother or sister who is due to arrive in February. Olivia started sleeping in a big girl bed when we got back from Thunder Bay and hasn't had a problem with it at all. I'm so proud of her for transitioning so easily. Now if only she would want to potty train.
A few weeks after her actual birthday we held a barbecue here in the backyard and invited all our church friends. We had a great time but had to move inside due to impending rain. Everyone seemed to enjoy the cake even though it wasn't my best work.
At Olivia's 2 year check up she weighed in at 23.5 pounds and was 33 inches tall which put her in the 25th percentile for each which is just fine with us. She's tiny but mighty.
Although Olivia can throw a mean tantrum she has a really sweet personality. This past week she has been taking care of mommy. I was having a few bad days and she visited me in bed to rub cream on my tummy to help me feel better. She also helped daddy massage my sore shoulder and gave me lots of kisses and hugs. I think she will be a great big sister because she is so helpful. Now if only we can work on the frustration and food pickiness LOL. I'm sure she will grow out of most of it but it can be quite troublesome. .
