Olivia's 1st vacation

We went on vacation the first week of June to Florida. Everyone had such a great time.

It wasn't as relaxing as vacations used to be and we were in pretty early every night, but nonetheless, I had an awesome time!

Olivia went on her first airplane flight and loved looking out the window and squealing really loud and embarrassing mommy! This was her first time at the beach, she put sand in her mouth in the first couple of seconds we were there.

Getting older

Well, me and Olivia are getting older. I turned 30 on May 22nd and Olivia is almost 9 months old. Where has this past year gone??

Olivia is now sleeping in her crib, one night she even went 8 hours in a row! She is VERY close to crawling, she gets on her hands and knees but isn't sure what to do next. She took swim lessons and loved every minute of being in the water. She now says, "Mama" and I think she knows the name belongs to me. She says it repeatedly when she wants me to hold her or get her out of whatever she is in.

I got a new camera for my birthday and I have taken about 1,000 new photos of Olivia. Here are some of the highlights from the past few weeks.
