happy birthday, libby!

Just wanted to publicly wish our little Olivia a very happy first birthday. This has been the best year of our lives, thanks to you, darling girl. We love you!

libby's take on laundry

our toshie girl

I was not expecting to make another one of these so soon, but here's my tribute to our little toshie girl. We miss her so much already.

first steps!

This must be the week for firsts.
Libby took her first steps tonight!!!

first word and blowing kisses

Here's a quick video of Libby showing off her skills at using her first word, "cat" and some advancing attempts at blowing kisses.
I love her.

pool time!

One of my big yard sale finds this year was a Mr. Turtle sandbox that we decided to use this year as Libby's kiddie pool. Now that we finally have some hot weather (and no rain) we pulled it out yesterday to see what she would think of it. This was also her first chance to wear her first bikini -- thanks Aunt Susan! Here are a couple of photos and a short video from her day at the pool.

two new videos

I know it's been a while since I posted any new videos, but I think these might be worth the wait. Here you get to see two distinctly different sides to Libby's personality. Enjoy!
