School Days

School has started today for Brooke.  Marcia came up and watched Olivia here at our house for the day so Brooke would not have to drive and pick her up tomorrow.  I will stay home on Wednesdays with her until 12:00 when Brooke comes home and we switch off.  If Marcia decides to take Olivia home with her on Tuesdays, then I will just go to work as normal on Wednesdays.
Other than that all is normal on the Olivia front.  Still working on that walking.  She can take a step with her right leg, but the left leg is planted firmly.  She could almost just walk circles around her left leg if she wants.  However, she is very very close!!!  We have also been giving her more and more table food.  Last night she had a few small bites of my pizza, and tonight she had some macaroni and cheese.  She loved the mac and cheese, but the pizza, not so much.
Olivia is also starting to want to climb.  She tries to climb the gates whenever possible.  She may climb before she walks.  We are also getting excited for Grandma and Grandpa's visit next weekend.  Just under 2 weeks away!!  But please, keep the wild boar meat and caterpillar eyebrows at home.

Thank you, Mima, for being there! So much nicer that daycare!
G'ma & G'pa are so excited to be coming for a visit. Let's see. What could we bring that won't be met with objection and disgust???
Just have to be surprised, I guess.
Can't wait.
