Birthday Picture Overload

A year ago on January 24, 2012 a little girl was brought into this world and her parents could not be happier! Little did they know what a joy she would bring to them and the adventures they would have watching her grow!  She had this Platnum Silver Blonde Hair" that brought Nurses and Doctors from other floors to come marvel at something they had never seen before!
Her mom was able to put pony tails in her hair a early as 3 months old which is something that most babies aren't able to have till at least 6 months of age!

Olivia Jean Russell had her 1st birthday this past week! She didn't have a great day on her birthday.. except for sleeping most of the day but on the Saturday following her birthday we invite all her Grandparents and Great Grandparents to come over for some cake and ice cream and watch her open gifts and dig into a smash cake! She also woke up to a ton of balloons in her bedroom that she had a blast playing with! She got a lot of cute clothes and a couple toys that she absolutely adores and some sippy cups that she cant get enough of!

She is very smart! She can say "mama" , "dada", "baabaa" for bottle,  blow kisses and wave bye, she is a big tease if you are trying to love on her by getting as close as posible to you and then running away... she likes to yell at the top of your lungs to get your attention and play with any cupboard or drawer that isn't  locked... she will yell "mama" and when I find her she just smiles and continues to play.

 She has a special place in her heart for her daddy and boys in general! She says a lot of other words but I just cant think of them right now. She is already wearing 18 months clothes because she is so tall just like her mom! She loves to give you a quick squeeze if you can catch her ... and she is a very good sleeper and eater!
She is the joy of our lives and is such a happy loveable toddler! Can't wait to see what year 2 brings for this sweet little girl! Happy Monday everyone!
