"Clean, Clean"

I think it is sad when my two year old cries when I tell her there is nothing else to clean. ONE of her favorite tasks is Windex-ing the windows, TV and TV stand. I told her "all done", she then broke out in a tantrum while screaming (with the most pitiful voice/scream) "clean, clean. Help, help". Now she is onto sweeping...

I think my neighbors believe I run a child slave camp. Really I don't.

Happy Saturday everyone!

On The Move!

There is nothing that is going to keep this little girl still anymore! She is a fast little booger may I add. Olivia is really trying to keep up with her sister, she has started mastering her skills of pulling herself up. She is even walking from object to object while holding on to it. She is also trying to follower her sister up the stairs. Thank goodness she isn't quite tall enough to get her leg up the first step, otherwise she would already be going up them. Did I mention Olivia JUST turned 7 months!! oh and she is getting her first tooth/teeth (can't quite tell if two are coming or just one).
In comparison to what Evelynn did at what age (more for myself than anyone else I guess, but I will still share). Evelynn Started Crawling about 6 months. (Olivia, 4 months), Sitting about 7 months (Olivia, the same), Pulling herself up a few days shy of 8 months (Olivia, 6 1/2 almost 7 months), first tooth I think 7 months (Olivia, the same). So they are running neck and neck. I just think Olivia is trying to be mobile faster because of having Evelynn to try to keep up with.
Here are a few picture of Olivia in her mobile stage. I hope to get a video up of her cruising around, but with church and all tonight it might have to wait until tomorrow.
