Livi is Eighteen Months

Isn't her lip pretty

Olivia is Eighteen months old.  Where did the time go.  I was planning on doing pictures with her to celebrate.  However as luck would have it my girls always seem to do something to their faces before picture time.  Last week Livi was playing in our living room where we have a stone fireplace.  She tripped and put her teeth through her lower lip.  She has a fat lip and a big cut under her lip.  Thank goodness it is healing quickly and didn't need stitches.
    Livi has become quite the little helper.  She loves taking things to the trash and hamper.  She puts her sippy and plate in the sink.  If you tell to go find something she will come back with it 9 times out of ten.  She is learning her body parts.  She know where her nose, cheeks, finger, belly button, lip and fingers are.  She doesn't care for animals very much.  She is scared of our dog Kenai..  She is loving the Christmas Decorations and has done pretty well with leaving the tree alone.  She loves playing chase with her sister.  They spend a lot of time running up and down the hall.  She has discovering coloring and is stopping trying to eat the crayons.  She loves to do as her big sister does.  Livi is an expert at dirty looks.  She gives the evil to most everyone.  She thinks it is funny to stare people down.  She loves to growl and make animal noises.  She is still in her crib.  We have tried several times to move her into the bunk bed with Emme.  However she resists and when she is ready we will move them into together.  Livi is extremely shy.  She needs a stuffie and her two fingers in her mouth.  She prefers just to stay with mommy and daddy.  Though she has started nursery and seems to be enjoying it.  She doesn't talk English yet but that is normal at this age.  She makes sure we know what she wants she points and talks in her own language.  She has hit every milestone and is even a head a bit.  She is such a little doll.  We call her My Precious because she is so addicting.  So happy to have her in our lives.
