17 years ago...

Curtis and I got engaged.

October is SB Awareness Month.

 October is Spina Bifida Awareness Month.

So, I thought I'd share some thoughts about Olivia!

She's super happy... most of the time.
If you zoom in on this pic, you can see the one front top tooth 
and the top fang that came in
as well as her cute 2 bottom teeth!
She's also tiny for her age (a first in our familly).
She wears big 9 mo. size or normal 12 mo. size!

 She will let you know when she's mad at you.

There's a scream that goes with the pointing.

You're okay NOT ever hearing it.

Think "Angry Howler Monkey".

 This is how she normally sits on the floor.

We're working on her fixing her own legs to put them out in front of her.

She sometimes sits with them both to one side; very lady-like.

 She's a fanatic about her nail polish.

We use polish bottles for her daily therapy.

She's learning to army crawl!

(If you zoom on this pic, you can see some of her scar.)

 She's happiest around her Daddy and her siblings.

Her first phrase was, "Hi Daddy".

Yep, she's a Daddy's girl.

I wouldn't change anything about this awesome Baby-girl!

Well... I could do without the Angry Monkey yell, but we'll deal with that later.
