We went to dinner with our good friends Nick and Ciara this fall. Liv loves them both. They are both so great with both our kids. Nick also thinks it is fun to help us out with our parenting skills. For instance, the other night as Brad was putting Liv to bed, Nick thought it would be a great idea not only to give Olivia her blankets and George (her monkey she sleeps with), but a maraca as well...thanks Nick!
My Grandma and Grandpa Smith came with my Aunt Linda this fall to meet Isabelle. This is Great Grandma Pat and Belle.
I have a feeling Olivia is going to be an active girly girl. Notice the frilly dress that she wanted to wear but when it came time to choose the shoes, she really wanted her tennis shoes. That's good though...volleyball players have to be active, athletic but also wear bows!
Every once in a while our fun neighbor girls come over and play after school. They are reading to Olivia here. They are great kids and Olivia loves it when they come over (and so do I!). When Olivia saw there picture just now she pointed to them and said 'friends'. Pretty cute...she has friends now. As Brad and I think about having three kids, we look at them to get a picture of what our life will be like-It looks crazy but fun!
Olivia in her headband stage. For a few weeks she asked for headbands and bracelets first thing in the morning and didn't take them off till bedtime.
I just love this picture of Belle. She just looks so precious and peaceful. She really is such a sweet baby!
