Karaoke Baby

Olivia wearing Tifiny's running hat.

Tifiny threw her friend Ceci a surprise birthday party on Friday. We had about 35 people and had such a great time! Tifiny and I baked a chocolate fudge cake with an almond creme filling.

Our family right before the party (and before Olivia went to bed:)

Cecilia and her 3 birthday cakes.

Olivia and Daddy in the sun right after church. We have finally chosen a church and it's called http://www.eagleridgechurch.com.

Some of our first friends invited us to lunch after church to celebrate their daughter Kayla's 4th b-day. Olivia enjoyed being with her new friend.

My new friend Kathy and Kayla. Her husband Thomas and their baby are at the end of the table and I didn't get a picture of them yet.

Tifiny gave Olivia an old purse to carry around.

Getting out some Sunday wiggles at the mall play area.

This was taken today when Olivia insisted on feeding Belle herself.

Olivia liked riding, even all alone.

Dancing with Daddy

Weekend fun

The girls at a harvest festival.

One of the highlights for Olivia--"heeses!"

Friday night Olivia face planted in some gravel at our neighborhood community center harvest festival. She handled it like a champ. These pictures are from Sunday night and her face is healing quickly.

After a her first taste of cotton candy...

Campus Visit

Olivia and I met Bill at school last Tuesday. She fell asleep on the way and I want to draw attention to the pearl necklace she's wearing. She wanted to wear it to meet Daddy. Note: it came off the second we pulled on to campus.
At Biola University. The library is straight ahead and Talbot School of Theology is on our right.

We ate a nice lunch of chicken quesadilla and hamburger and fries. We all shared a Frosty on our way out of town.

She talks on the phone a lot, and especially likes to talk to Holly. This translation is: We went to the beach where there was water. It was cold (shiver.) The beach, the beach. Then she moves on to tell Holly about her pool and heads toward the back door where it is.

Dancing is a large part of our lives.

Olivia insisted that Belle wear socks. And Belle had no where to run.

Belle is a Chargers fan.

Olivia is very much into girly things. She loves to put on makeup and do nails. Here she is helping Tifiny with her toenails.

New leggings.

Legs on display.

Olivia and her Tia.

Her favorite spot in the mall play area.

Visit with Grammy & Pops Sprouse

They came in for the weekend and we had a nice visit! They were very busy with their grand kids. Out for Thai Sunday night. Pumpkin patch.

Unsure about this goat. (I don't blame her)

Olivia and me.

Pumpkin and straw. Regular country girl.

She begged to do this jumpy-obstacle course. Tifiny and I took her through it and laughed the whole time! We kept falling and tripping.

Olivia and Belle.

Pops and Grammy.

A lone rider.

Wanting to do more rides. One carney called her a "fun-monster." Weird.
