9 Months

Olivia is now 9 months old and has been for a couple weeks now. Can you believe it? She is doing very well and moves and grooves all day long. She now has 4 teeth, 2 bottom center and 2 top center. And, two more are coming in on the top. She babbles and talks all day long and loves to play and socialize. She is also standing now. She can stand for about 10 seconds and she even took a little step the other day. My baby girl is growing too fast! We had her 9 month checkup last week and here are her stats:
  • Weight- 18 lbs 19 oz. (33 Percentile)
  • Length- 28 in. (60 Percentile)

Pumpkin Time!

Last weekend Johnathan, Olivia, and I went to a pumpkin patch. They had a patch where you pick your own pumpkins, a petting zoo, a maze, and corn for kids to play in. I'm learning that holiday festivities are much more exciting with a child.

Olivia liked all the animals except this little guy. He started jumping toward us and Olivia freaked out.





Olivia playing in the corn. She loved doing this!



Here are my gourds that I picked from the patch

Our pumpkins!

Last week poor Olivia experienced being sick for the first time. The culprit. A case of the stomach flu. Nights consisted of throwing up everywhere, and HUGE diarrhea blowouts I soon wish to forget. Days consisted of Olivia taking very long naps, keeping rags on her head to help with her fever, and laying on the couch.

My poor little girl did not feel well



Luckily, she is all better and back to her happy self
