Happy Anniversary to TJ and I!! We celebrated our Five year anniversary on August 3rd. I can't believe that it has gone by so fast! I love him to pieces and am so lucky to have him as my best friend, husband and a wonderful father. He truly is my better half and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him and eternity. These pictures are in no order with when they were taken and as I was looking for a recent picture of us together I couldn't find one. That's right not one! I guess we need to make more of an effort to.

For our anniversary this year TJ made the plans and took care of all the details. I loved not having to worry about anything especially finding a babysitter. We went to dinner, movie and then headed up the Ogden Canyon and stayed the night at the Alaskan Inn. It was really nice to have a date with TJ. Thanks for a wonderful evening! I love you!!

The Celebration Continued...

I'm not quite done posting about Olivia's Birthday. She was so spoiled this year by everyone and we are so thankful for all those that came to her party. We had a birthday party at Grandma and Papa's house with Olivia's cousins that are the same age. She loved all her presents and especially her stroller that we gave her. She also had a little celebration with TJ's parent's up at Bear Lake. Then we had a friend party for her at the South Ogden Splash Pad and it was a blast. For the first hour Olivia wouldn't let me put her down and she was very whiny but finally after some pizza (her favorite food) and presents she was ready to play. Thank you for all that came and supported her for her birthday!

Just some things that remind me of Olivia or that she does that I want to put down so that I will have them for when I forget:

~loves suckers

~climbs on anything

~jumps off of anything or onto anything

~she is such a monkey

~ still has a binky when she goes to bed (I know I really need to rid her of it)

~ loves playing in water

~ she is talking more each day

{I want that}

{ I don't want that}

{ I'm hungry}

{Pretty}

{cute}

{ hold you}

{See ya}

And many more words that I'm sure I have put down before.

~ she wants to go potty whenever someone else does

~ She has no fear

~ Finally will somewhat let me brush her teeth

~ gives her baby dolls kisses and tells them she loves them

~ loves to have her toes and nails painted

~ Still into Dora

~ Wants to watch the horses all the time{Spirit the movie}

Here are stats which again are so I can look back and know what they were.

Weight: 23.8 lbs.~13%

Height: 35 in.~78%

Head cir: 18 in.~10%

Happy Birthday!

Yep Olivia turned the big TWO last week!! I took her pictures a few weeks ago and she didn't want to have anything to do with me while taking them. She walked up to me and pushed the camera away and said NO. I wish we would have gotten more of her smiling but most of these represent her at this stage in her life. She had to have a sucker almost the entire time or a piece of candy and once she saw the movie case in the car she wasn't going to put it down. Of course her being my child I think that everyone of them is adorable. For some reason they downloaded really pix elated and I can't get it to change. Happy Birthday Olivia! We love you very much and are so blessed to have your sweet spirit in our lives. You are such a spit fire and you never stop moving, ever! I hope you had a great birthday!

Bear Lake Retreat...

Every year in July we head up to TJ's grandparents cabin in Bear Lake. All of TJ's mom's siblings and their kids come up for games and lots of fun! The last few years it has been boys vs. girls and the girls always seem to have the better score at the end:) We had a lot of fun at the beach, playing games and watching the talent show. I of course didn't take many pictures, mainly because I was feeling sick the whole time and didn't have the energy to do so. Olivia had a blast up there with her cousins and she loved the four wheeler, weather it was going or not.
