It's been a while!

I know it has been a while since i have posted so this may be kind of long. As of wednesday, Olivia will be 7 months old. I can't believe she is that old already, it has went so fast. She is getting to be such a big girl. She is such a good eater, although we still haven't seen any signs of teeth. I know they will pop up some day. She still doesn't crawl but manages somehow to scoot herself all over the place. She jabbers all the time and sometimes she gets VERY loud. We laugh at her all the time, she has such a funny little personality. She sleeps great at night but it is often a struggle to get her to nap much during the day. She fights her sleep so much, she is afraid she might miss something. (bless her heart, she gets it honestly) She is napping right now, we'll see how long it lasts:) Last month Eric and I celebrated our five year wedding anniversary ( i can't believe we have been married that long!!) Just the two of us went to Cozumel (before swine flu was such a big topic) and Gran (my mom) came here and stayed with Olivia. Yes, i know we are terrible parents for leaving her so soon, but it was a much needed vacation. We never got to go anywhere after I finished school so this was anniversary/graduation trip. We had a great time, it is so pretty there. We didn't do much but relax at the pool or by the beach. And of course we were ready to get back home to our little muchkin. (thanks again Gran for coming to stay with Olivia and Bruiser) Speaking of Bruiser, Olivia LOVES him! She wants to watch him all the time. I have to make him leave the kitchen when i am trying to feed her because she gets distracted by him and won't eat. We think he loves her too. She pulls on his ears and he just sits there and lets her and he loves to lick her. I know that's gross, we try to keep him from doing it but sometimes he sneaks in a few licks.
We had a good Easter and Mothers Day. We got to spend time with family. I can't wait for summer, i am so ready to take Olivia swimming, she loves the bath so much.
Well it looks like nap time is over so i will go for now, hopefully it won't be so long in between blogs next time. Hope you are all doing well! Take care!
