my thoughts on Olympics...

Dear Olivia,

Your favorite question to ask people is "What do you want to be when you grow up?"  
(Even if we're already grown-ups).
You love making sick people feel better and talking about birthday parties.  
Which means when you grow up, you'll either be a doctor or a party-planner.


We spent Thanksgiving with your cousins...we missed Alaina because she was sick:(  
There was a play, performance, lots of singing and giggling, in matching jammies from nana and papa.
(Note the striking resemblance between Cate and Isabelle)



You had lots of questions for great grandpa Hal about his dog Gracey, and you chatted for a pretty long time.  About Gracey.  And Snoop.  And all dogs.

Christmas morning you got a dollhouse from Goodwill, but refurbished.  

And your birthday.  Party. 
It ended with a little girl puking on the front door rug as she was leaving.  
All in all, fun!


Altoona fun days, you look so grown up


Gymnastics; you only did what you wanted to do.  
Nothing more, nothing less.  
Olympic gymnastics not so much in your future.


Animal Parade.  Don't ask me how purse got in it.

Emily is more responsible than both of us sometimes- she cleans up after you and reminds me to lock the trash so Snoop doesn't get into it.  
She also questions my speed if it seems I'm driving too slow:)
Emily wants to be an astronaut and a paleantologist when she grows up.  Maybe she can fund your party-planning career.

"Snoop doesn't sin, but he's naughty."
Right you are.

Love, mom
