Olivia is One!!! Pumpkin Party

On November 2nd we celebrated Olivia's 1st birthday with the cutest pumpkin party at a corn maze just north of Ocala. We had the BEST time.....the weather was perfect & everyone had a great time enjoying the activities. Their were hayrides, big tubs of corn & oats (which the kids loved to playing in), a small petting zoo, a corn maze to walk thru and other games. I made pumpkin shaped rice krispie treats as party favors which turned out so good! We put up our 10 by 10 tents & my sister hung up lights & made the CUTEST birthday banner to hang across the tents. Olivia really loved crawling around & watching the other kids play. I'm so happy to had made such wonderful memories of celebrating Olivia's first birthday!

The birthday girl!

Charles had flowers delivered for Olivia & I on the morning of her birthday. So sweet!!
Here's Olivia's flowers...so cute that its in a pumpkin jar (keeping with the theme of her party :)

October Photos

Here are some cute photos from throughout the month of October. Olivia is 11 months and Cameron just 3 years, 1 month. Cameron and Olivia are starting to interact well together & Cameron really enjoys Olivia. I just have to keep a close eye on them since Cameron likes to be rough & often takes toys from her (she is old enough now that she gets upset when he takes her toy.)

Cameron feeding Olivia. I heard one conversation Cameron had with Olivia..... she was crying for more food & Cameron came over & said to her "would you like some more puffs? Here you go, open your mouth." Then he fed her some puffs & said "I'll be right back" as he ran off to play for a few minutes. It was so cute!

Pushing her walker (she is still not walking by herself yet)

Riding the motorcycle together. Since this is Cameron's favorite toy Olivia loves to ride on it now too......she wants to be just like her big brother!

Here's a video of Cameron riding his bike......withOUT training wheels!! We took off his training wheels shortly after his 3rd birthday & he was riding by himself after only a few days. He learned how to stop by himself real quick but it took about 2 months for him to be able to start on his own. We are so proud that he is a big bike rider!!! Oh, and you can see him go over the ramp Charles built him......starting him early for BMX racing, LOL!!!

Halloween 2011

For Halloween this year Cameron was a dragon and Olivia a princess. We went trick-or-treating in our neighborhood Halloween night and even stopped by my grandparents apartment earlier in the day to show off their costumes. Cameron's school had a Halloween parade & singing but the parade got rained out & I forgot my camera to take pictures of all the kids singing. There's always next year :)
