Andrews Family

Olivia Grace is now ten months old! Time flies when you’re having fun - and especially when you’re chasing a little one around!  Olivia crawls confidently and easily gets from standing to sitting to lying down. She pulls up on EVERYTHING and has even let go and stood on her own a few times. She has just started moving along furniture, and since she is getting more and more comfortable standing, I’m guessing she’ll be walking some before her birthday. She has no trouble feeding herself finger foods and has started practicing with silverware if we help her get the food on her fork or spoon. What she really wants, though, is to eat whatever we’re eating and she has been sampling more and more table food. She never really turns down food and sometimes we wonder where she puts it all! 

Livy is quite the chatterbox and talks to herself while playing in the sweetest little gibberish. She pays a lot more attention when we talk, too, and is getting close to telling us her first word. It might be "light" as she is always happy to point out the lights in every room we enter and she can already make those sounds. It might also be "hi" since we tell her to tell everyone "hi" and then get her to wave when we see people. We are both enjoying our Kindermusik Sign & Sing class. She gets really excited to hear the songs we’ve learned like "The bear went over the mountain . . ." or "Olivia knows the colors of the rainbow . . ." or "Three little ducks that I once knew . . ." 

We are blessed with a very sweet, cheerful little girl who is spoiling us by being so good tempered. We are constantly getting compliments on how pleasant she is and though we can’t take much of the credit, it sure makes us proud to hear it!
