Update!

So this will mostly be pictures of our growing little girl! She is getting so big and growing up way too fast! I feel like I blinked during the 6 month to 9 month stage... and now she will be 10 months next weekend! She is officially in a forward facing car seat. We found one with really good rating for a super good price so we just had to get it! She loves it!

She loves to kiss and play with the baby in the mirror.. and thinks the baby is the funniest person in the world!She also licks the baby.. which her mom does not like to clean up all the tongue licks on the mirror! :)

 She is crawling and getting into everything. And is just about walking... she has walked from one couch across the room to the other before! We cheer her on every time she falls and so she will get back up smiling and try again! WE are so proud of the amazing little girl she is becoming and are glad that we get to call her ours! :)

Is it just me or does this pose look like "Wii Sumo karate on Wii Fit"?

Trying to walk towards us

Happy Weekend! I better get some cleaning done...

Facial Hair and Weights

Kim and Olivia have both decided to start growing facial hair... and Olivia has started lifting weights!

On a not cool note... Kim took Olivia to her 9 month well baby check up yesterday and she was told that the runny nose has built up to so much fluid that she has an ear infection (for the 3rd time) But everything else was good! She was 19 pounds (50 percentile) and 30 inches (off the chart for her age) She finally has one little tooth on the bottom and there is 1 more working on coming in! All the other 4 that were coming in have moved back up again and will be here another month! As for right now we are working on getting her to start sleeping through the night again instead of waking up 3 times every night. Hopefully once she is done with her antibiotics she will start sleeping better. We can't wait for what November brings! Happy Thursday!

Halloween

So I want to post and update on our lives but for now I will just post our Halloween pictures. Enjoy!

The cutest Fairy of them all

Was laughing when Kim put her afro in her face

Stairs

I have been meaning to post this video since Monday so I am finally gonna sit down and do it while Trevor is reading Presidential Poll stuff and Livy is crawling around laughing to herself.

On Sunday Livy discovered that she can go up stairs. She was pretty good at it and did not need help at all. She discovered that she has to keep going once she starts or else the stairs behind her is further down than she realized. Sorry the video is sideways but I forgot it doesn't change to upright once on the computer. She is learning things so quick and is acting like she is about ready to start walking soon. Can't wait for tomorrows adventures of our little 9 month old growing princess!

Oh No...

So this weekend we brought out our push along/ scoot along toy for Livy to start using. WE figured she is probably still too young to use it... We were so wrong! She stood up to it the minute I put it on the floor and started walking away. Man were we surprised... She shouldn't be doing that so early. Yes we are ready for her to start walking because she will be so much happier but I was not prepared for this.

She is growing up fast and we love how much she is learning. Happy Monday! Have a great week!

Soaking Wet and Covered in Pumpkin Guts

Poor Livy has to suffer when her mom and dad get ideas about how to take a picture of her. Kim is constantly thinking about ways to take pictures of her so we can do mini photo shoots. Apparently Livy was thinking about it too because as Kim was showering and getting ready for the day Liv decided to crawl into the shower fully dressed and get soaking wet. She loves the water so it was perfect.

She was in the shower with Kim before she even realized that she was gonna get soaking wet. She didn't like being fully dressed and Kim trying to take the wet clothes off her.

Our backyard is changing colors so quick and dropping all the leaves on the trees even though it is still pretty warm during the day. So we decided to take another photo shoot of our super cute model.

Even though the leaves on the ground make it look cold outside it was actually 85 degrees outside that day.

Livy is a fun model... but we wish she would smile more! Every once in a while you can get a picture of her with a smirk on her face as if she is trying to not smile.

We made this onesie for the Winslow VS. Snowflake game a couple weeks ago

Yes... She still has no teeth!

After the homecoming assembly (Kristi and Ann did an amazing job)

First day wearing fall clothes

She is such a happy little girl all the time and we love every minute of it.

Kim saw a post on pinterest the other day of someone putting their baby inside a pumpkin for a picture so the ideas started for another photo shoot. This is what we came up with.

I know that is a stink face but I think it is so funny that it is cute

WE can't wait for fall and all of the things that come with the season. Halloween and Thanksgiving.. such a fun time with family!

Last of all... Liv has found a new toy that we just cant get enough of her playing with. WE have a penguin that use to hold a rose but now the rose has fallen off and Livy thinks is the best chew toy ever!

Isn't that the sweetest face you have ever seen. I love her clenched jaw, chubby cheek look!

Happy October! Be Safe and Have a great rest of the week!

Came home from a weekend away and she was so happy to walk around alone

Hugs and Kisses from Rush

She slept so good the night after a weekend away so she kept stretching all morning

Went to another room and when I came back I could not hear Liv or see her so I went searching and this is where I found her

You can always tell when Olivia is tired... she curls up in this position to sleep

We are loving being a small family and Love every minute of every day together. We are so grateful for Eternal Families and the fact that we will be able to spend Eternity growing and learning together. Happy Tuesday! We hope you have a great week!
