Ali has done such a fabulous job of updating The Burrous Family blog (http://www.theburrousfamily.blogspot.com/), with so many cute pictures of Olivia, et al, that I've not felt the need. However, today, I realized that the pictures that I take of Olivia during the day and send to Ali as "O. Updates" have not been shared.
Since we know she's the cutest thing since Shirley Temple (if you don't know Shirley, you're a young reader!) I thought I'd share some.
Now that Ali is back at work, Gigi (aka: Penny--Austin's mom) and I have settled into our every-other-week Olivia sitting very nicely, and, while I can only speak for myself, I will tell you that it's a perfect routine for me! It gives me time to visit my 90 year old mom and help her as well as visit and "play" with friends. Since retiring the end of January, this has been a fabulous routine.
OK--pictures, as promised (and these are from my iPhone, so I question the quality):
Olivia and "Grumps" (who really ISN'T) 2-13-11
I KNEW this day was near and sat right by O. as she learned to SWOOSH out of her bouncy seat!
...and there she went---with me right there to catch her!
We are all very careful to "secure" her now...she still loves her chair and kicking, kicking, kicking!!
We LOVE music and this giraff from Gigi plays lots of songs!
My sweet cousin Alyse was in town (from LONDON!) and we had lunch with my mom at Parc, her retirement community.
We ADORE our sock people from "Aunt" Tedi!
This is a favorite from just yesterday...Bailey was quite surprised to find Olivia in her path when she came in from outside...Olivia thought it was hysterical!!
Love all the picture updates, even though I've seen them before! :)
ReplyDeleteI think you can set your phone to take high resolution pictures??
OMG!!! I follow Ali's blog religiously! BUT - I still check yours and I'm glad you've updated :)
