This and That

The month of November is going by so fast. I am still in shock that my little baby turned ONE! We celebrated Olivia's birthday with family and close friends. She loved walking around while holding someones hand and of course her cake. She got so many toys that Santa is going to have a hard time finding her something..lol She loves Elmo so I did a Elmo cake and first birthday decorations. Ryan and I got her a walking toy and the night of her party she took three steps by herself. Go figure!
Mariah has gone through a separation phase with me. She was crying and fighting me to go to school and dance class for the past two weeks. Finally after talks with her and reading books she has been doing really good. Ryan and I aren't pushing dance class on her so we have decided to drop it and focus on school. Maybe when she gets older she can pick up an activity along with school.
Sickness has been going around with everyone else and has now hit our household this week. We found out that Mariah has the croup. I feel so bad for her. We spend the past couple of nights up with her because she can't breath and is coughing. Now Mommy is starting to feel really bad. I hope that we all can get to feeling better by Thanksgiving next week! But more than that Olivia doesn't catch it because that may be real bad!!
Besides these few things that have gone on, this has been what is like for the month of November for us. I can't believe November is almost over. This time last year I was taking care of a new born and being sleep deprived.I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving:)
