New Tricks

Olivia is starting to do all sorts of new fun tricks, including high fiving, clapping, drinking through a straw, sticking out her tongue and doing "How Big is the Baby?" She also does this adorable thing where she uses her hand to make this little noise with her lips. We used to do it to her and now she's picked it up. We're working on playing Peek-a-Boo now and doing "Touchdown!" Olivia is also eating all kinds of new foods- tonight for dinner, she had butternut squash and apple soup with grilled cheese, just like Mommy and Daddy! We did find out after her 1 year appointment that she is slightly anemic, so we have been eating more iron-rich foods, and she is taking iron supplements each day. In another 8 weeks, we'll go back to the pediatrician to have her blood tested again. Fingers crossed that everything comes back normal!

Climbing the Stairs

And she's off!!

Sharing

We have been working with Olivia on sharing and handing us things when we ask for them. She's picking it up pretty well I'd say- once she starts, she just doesn't want to stop! haha
