Ugh! I'm so fed up with whatever is going on with my blog! And I lost some of my pics. I'll try to fix it later. I have some new ones to upload anyway.
This coming week is going to be so busy! We have to get ready for the trip, which for me means making many lists and checking things off as I go, and then making updated lists. I'm like that-- very organized and methodical. James sincerely believes I have a mild case of OCD. I'd have to agree! I remember I had something with one hand, I had to touch it with the other. Now I sound a little crazy, but that's what I did! I don't even think about that kind of thing anymore though. Now I obsess about other things, like making lists! :-)
This week, I have my morning jogging (go me! My ass is totally shrinking... now if I could just suck it up and weigh myself.. too scared!). Tuesday, my mom and I are making a trip to Atlanta to go to Babies 'R Us. Wednesday we're having Ben & Joey for dinner since they're dog sitting at our house while we're gone. I made a special trip to the Asian market downtown today so I can make Ben's favorite when they come, potstickers! Then, there's all the birthday planning and buying. I need to get going on it!!!
Oh, Olivia's been doing some news things! She's so advanced in some areas, but nowhere near walking! Strange...
-- After months of watching my mom and I play songs on this little flute, she now picks it up and blows into it! She always pulls it out of her mouth between each note so she can smile. :-)
-- She's obsessed with trying to put on her own shoes and socks, which of course she can't do. She sometimes won't even let me do it because she wants to.
-- She screams "hi" and everyone we see and waves. Before it was always "bye bye", now it's "hi."
-- She can tell us where so many of her body parts are! We ask and she points to them. She knows: mouth, eye, ear, hands, shoe, hair, tummy, teeth, and earring. I love when I ask her about her teeth. She gives me a cheesey grin and rubs her finger on her teeth, and then wants to touch mine. She also understands, "put on lotion" and she rubs all over herself.
-- This past week, she tried to dust the living room like she sees me doing. She took a papertowel from me and wiped off various things in the living room. So cute!
Posted by Hannah at March 31, 2007 08:18 PMThat is so cute!! Amelia is also a little duster, she loves to "help" us clean, it's hilarious. She's also obsessed with the teeth and rubs mine and giggles when she touches them. She doesn't do the shoe thing though- she desperately tries to take them OFF! :) Post pics of your potstickers, that sounds so amazing! And yes, GO YOU!! Good job on the working out, keep it up and you will be seeing results for months & months with that revved up metabolism!

Anna likes to "sweep" I got her a kiddie broom for Christmas and it is like her fav. toy! Forget the expensive toys, go for the "grown up" toys!!
