So much has been going on that I'd like to share, I just haven't had the energy to sit down and formulate my thoughts. Things are going
very well with Olivia, she continues to expand her language and her comprehension of what we are saying is awesome! She has been going to an early intervention "school" from 9-12 every day, just to help her assimilate better. They have a field trip every Friday, which is very cool for her. She got to go to the library and the Akron Zoo so far. This week is the McKinley Museum. She is finding her way in the family, bit by bit. She still imitates EV.ERY.THING. Abigail says and does a lot of the time, which at times can be very annoying. We have to step back and remember that she is learning and just wants to fit in.
I took a day off last Friday and it was all about the girls! First we went to the mall and had
Olivia's ears pierced {she didn't bat an eye}. Then a trip to Build-a-Bear was in order, they both picked out new animals and appropriately dressed them. First time for Olivia and she had a ball...then we went to Panera for lunch and off to the grocery store and home...but wait! Abigail had the option of getting her ears pierced when Olivia did, and she declined. It scared her! Well, of course, after we are miles away from the mall, Princess changes her mind. Being the good mommy, I take her back, we wait a bit and she too gets her ears pierced {she balled like a baby}. In the end, she recovered nicely, her "little ear" looks adorable pierced and we went home to show daddy what we were up to! They've both been very good about cleaning and turning them!
Fathers Day turned out to be a nice day. We had the family over for some ribs on the grill and all the girls (3 cousins + my two) played very well together. All were full and exhausted by days end!
See here it is another week gone by...oy vey. I'll be back!
