Olivia and I Are Back

Olivia and I drove to Indiana again with my mom. One of my moms aunts passed away so Olivia drove along to keep her company. While mom was doing the funeral thing I took Olivia down to see Brad's family in southern Indiana, some of our dear friends in Kentucky and to see my grandma in central Indy. Olivia did great and did really good with all the new people.

On a side note...Olivia had some fun during nap time at Brad's grandmas house. We all finished lunch and everyone left. So it was just his grandma, Olivia and I left in the house. I got Olivia's bed set up in his grandma's bedroom. Olivia was so tired...I layed her down...I heard her jump a few times...and then all was quiet. Well, a little over an hour later I decided to go peek on her. I had thought I had heard something...well I peeked in the door...and sure enough there was Olivia standing there looking at me like deer in the headlights. She got caught. Olivia decided not to take a nap. She was extremely quiet and made a HUGE mess. She was in her crib and some how managed to open a drawer of the dresser. She found makeup, eye glasses, jewelry and a lot of other small things. Let's just say the makeup was all over her outfit.

Thanks Nana and Papa

Olivia spent this past Saturday with her Papa. They had fun. Papa took her to the Bass Pro Shop. When they pulled into the parking lot Olivia started saying "hohoho". She remembered that is where we saw Santa!! Of course they couldn't leave without a fishing hat for Olivia. Leave it to Papa to buy her her first fishing item. After shopping they went to the shoe store to visit Nana. Nana had to work because I was working a shoe show with a guy from corporate and Brad was working at church. Papa then took Olivia back to their house for nap time.

Sunday was with Nana and Papa too. Brad and I were both working. Thanks Nana and Papa for hanging with Olivia this weekend. She sure enjoys her time.

These are some of the pictures with Nana and Papa.
