Happy Birthday Olivia!

She's two! Olivia has had a party month! Nana and Gramp came to visit and she got a cool rocking chair. Then we celebrated again with the Hickox side the next weekend. Then on Monday May 11 ("real bday") she got to celebrate again with Mommy, Daddy, and Isaac. And we had some more cake today and sang Happy Birthday again! The picture story follows:

Yeah! I'm TWO! (and the bunny sings "If You're Happy and You Know It")



I made her a Cat Cake. Over this past year, she's wanted to draw "meow"s everytime she had something in her hands to draw with. Both Justin and I have drawn a TON of cats as well.

The final product.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Two candles. Two blows.

This was the messiest she got.

There was a clown at the party! She really did like it, you just can't tell.

She got lots of fun presents like: a kite, golf set, horse shoes, clothes, bears, bottles for her babies, play food...


And she played with her presents.

Monday May 11 Morning. She loves Cheerios.

Mom, Dad, Isaac, and Olivia went to the Aquarium in Gatlinburg.

These were one of her favorites. They were moving around/fighting/playing king of the rock. We laughed.


There was a cool walk through shark tunnel.

This was actually her on the way TO the aquarium. She was one tired pup!

AND.....DRUM ROLL..... She got rid of the crib! It's now in Isaac's room! And Isaac is out of our room! Yippy!

She likes the bed...and the fact that she can get out anytime she wants....ex: right after she's tucked in for the night!

And side note: Uncle Will, Aunt Tara, and Jackson are now living in Germany. Boo. We'll miss you!

Isaac is getting BIG!

Turning the corner at age 2: Walking bare foot in the grass.

She got a "life suit" for the boat rides in the pond and lake.

I can't believe she's already two. She has been such a huge blessing to our family. We are treasuring every moment we have with her. I totally get why Jesus said "let the little children come to me". She is so precious, trusting, full of life, and loving. Having kids helps to understand how God sees us and what we need to be like towards Him as well. And all this applies to Isaac too. Two treasures. Thank you God!
