Gingerbread House

Olivia was so proud of her gingerbread house.  We spent the better part of a Sunday afternoon putting this together - it wasn't the most stable home but she had a great time decorating it!

Babby and Geek

Olivia absolutely adores her "Babby" (aka Maggie) and "Geek" (aka Jake).  But you can see that the feeling is not always mutual - Maggie looks terrified here.  Honestly though, Maggie and Jake do very well with her - they often look to me to make sure that they aren't crossing any lines.  They are very good dogs.

Rothan Family Christmas Party

Olivia was worn out by the end of the night!
Playing with Grandpa, Mommy and Cooper
I have to say, Cara, that I am impressed.  A baby in one hand and a glass of wine in the other.  Just the way I like it!
Fascinated with the Christmas tree!

Santa Claus

I went to daycare with Olivia to attend her annual Christmas party.  The first picture is a picture of her with her teacher, Ms. Deborah.  We love Ms. Deborah - she is so sweet!  The second is of course our second meeting ever with Santa Claus - Olivia was not quite the fan this year as she was last year.  But she was in good company - I think at one point every toddler was screaming and crying in tandem while Santa was in the room!
