Goodbye Spring...hello Summer!!

First time riding in her wagon. Riding like she owns it!

Enjoyed opening and closing the door repeatedly.

Testing out the new wheels.





Looking at Gabe & Clara's baby chicks.


Only cared to touch it once or twice.





Mother's Day


Olivia came and woke Mom up from a nice nap in the hammock.



She loves her fridge magnets.
She is such a chiller when she rides in Daddy's truck.



Olivia LOVES her swing.

This spring has flown by and has been so much fun with Olivia. She loves being outside! Olivia was a late crawler and didn't start crawling until 11 months old. She was too content scooting and rolling around everywhere. Now I know why everyone was telling us we were lucky, she's into everything now! She loves to clap, wave, say "ha" for hi, yell "dod" for Dad ALL the time and now just started saying Mom. This week she also started saying "no" and she'll keep saying it repeatedly to herself. We really do hear her trying to repeat things more often and do not feel its a coincidence anymore when she says something that sounds like something we were saying. Today she has repeated "toes" and "mess". Olivia loves to open and close things, stack things, put her shapes in her shape box, pick out and match her shapes and colors, take puzzles apart, push the walker through the house (she is very serious while she does this and gets extremely mad when she can't turn it around), finally is drinking her milk from a sippy cup (she only would do juice before and thought the milk should be in a bottle), point at things, jabber all the time, and dance, just to name a few things.
Terry finished up another class at Defiance College towards his masters degree. He also coached the JV baseball team for Pettisville. I have not commited to anything else but teaching and being a mom. At the beginning of the month we joined the "mini van club". Right after purchasing the van and driving out of the lot, I said that I officially felt 30!
