Olivia 9 Months Old

I did such a better job blogging about Hayden then I do Olivia. I feel like she has grown up so fast and all her firsts were not as important as Hayden's even still Hayden does something new and it is so exciting and Olivia learns to clap and it's just yah she is clapping. So I am going to try to make up for it now and tell you all about my love Olivia!

• She is 9 Months old now and weighs 17 lbs.
• She has two full teeth on the bottom and is just barely getting her two top teeth.
• She gives the best hugs in the world! No seriously, she puts her arms around your neck and squeezes so hard sometimes I have to say "Uncle".
• She also loves to give kisses and makes kissing noises when she sees other people kissing. Probably because she doesn't want to be left out.
• She can say Dada, BaBa, Mama, and No, No, No and said them in that order and when she says it, it is more like a high pitched scream than speaking! Sometimes I think she says Hayden and Thank-you but Scott says I am just hearing things, I think she says something like it and that is good enough for me.
• She hardly sleeps! She goes to bed at 9:00 and is up at 5:00-5:30 and only takes 1 45 minute nap if we are lucky.
• Her favorite toy is whatever her sister is playing with or whatever is out of her reach!
• Her favorite thing to eat these days is toast and paper. Yes I know she finds that paper and hides it in those chipmunk cheeks of hers.
• She has major separation anxiety! I used to think that she was just a mama's girl and would scream whenever I left the room but more these days it doesn't matter who leaves the room, if someone does she starts to scream!
• She is very content rolling around in the stroller and people watching.
• She loves people and people paying attention to her. She will smile and giggle at them just so long as they keep giving her attention.
• She is standing up all on her own, I mean going from a sitting to standing position without the help of furniture and balancing for more than a few seconds, more like minutes. She is walking along furniture and taking a few steps but not committing to walking yet.
• I think she is going to be a ballerina, she can stand on her very tip toes and trys to walk on them. Probably why she is not walking yet.
• She just learned to clap and loves to play drums! Which means banging toys together to make noises or playing the drums on someones belly or legs, she just likes to make noise!
• She is going to be a love bug for Halloween, going to be adorable!
• She is a ham! You put a camera in front of her and she smiles every time...these pictures just prove it!
