Milestones all around

As Olivia grows older, her physical milestones are becoming dwarfed by her intellectual milestones. I love watching her grow, learn and laugh at things that one could only see from being 3-feet tall. She's my favorite small person. Her latests: Singing songs, counting from 1 to 10, recognizing places and people's names and one of the funniests...pointing out when mommy or daddy farts! Ethan gets a kick out of that.

I am still trying to decide between one of three good pre-schools to enroll her in for the fall.... St. John Lutheran Early Childhood Center, Cypress UMC Wee Wuns or Lakewood UMC Little People. They're all great schools with pros that outweigh their cons. We're going to continue praying for a place that will be the most nurturing environment to help Olivia grow spiritually, socially and academically.

Thanks for your continued prayers for my aunt during radiation treatments. She's currently finishing up her second of 6 weeks in treatment. Olivia loves going there with us, mostly because she loves the fish tank and the pretzel snacks they have!

In other milestones, we're going to a first-birthday party and a retirement party this weekend (not for the same person, ha!), we're planning a going-away party for our friends who are moving to Kansas soon and another baby shower in June! I love little babies!!

Ethan and I are SO ready for a little vacation away! He's been super busy at work, and I've been a little stressed, to say the least. We were thinking about another cruise, but I think the whole cruise industry is shaken up a little, so we'll wait until things calm down. We'll probably head back to Hyatt Lost Pines in April instead. Loved it there.
