Happy Mother’s Day

Olivia is pretty much back to her old happy self now.  We decided to take her off all of her medications early, including Zantac.  She was just taking so much for so long and had been miserable that we decided to give her system a reboot.  This seemed to work, and so far no puking from lack of Zantac yet either.  Good to have happy Lee back.

New words keep showing up in Olivia’s repertoire daily now.  Some of the latest words are strawberry (dobbie), banana (mana), fish (shhhh), outside (siiiide), night night (nie nie) and no (no no no no.)  We work on getting her to say the actual word correctly (except no, she says that one too well), but it is so cute how she says each word her way. 

Ok, I wrote the first two paragraphs before Olivia woke up.  Now that she is up she is totally congested, can’t drink and breathe at the same time and in an ok mood, but gets pretty angry.  She came up to me and said siiiide (to go into sunroom, but Zoe was eating so she can’t go out there while that is going on) and I said not yet, she punched the air towards me, threw her little cow at me, dropped to all fours and gave a cry face, then crawled away.  However, now she is perfectly happy playing with her Cozy Coupe.  You never know what you are going to get.

Anyway, for all of you that have gone through this (or are currently going through this) Happy Mother’s Day!!!  We couldn’t do it without you.
