I had my birthday party today. It was so much fun! Everyone was there to see me. I got lots of presents and I got to eat cake! I'm really tired from the whole day, so I'm not going to post a lot. Here is the album all my pictures from my birthday party are in... hope you like them!
Hi Everyone, its Olivia's Mummy. I spent quite a couple of hours working on this montage for OK's birthday. It was hard to pick just a couple of pictures out of the hundreds we have. Its a little long, but its worth it!

Mummy drove me over to cousin April's house today and left me there so she could go out and look for a box to put my things in. I think its called a 'toy box'. Its really pretty and I like to open and close it. Don't worry Big Pappy F, the lid has a special hinge that wont let it slam shut on my fingers.
Isn't it pretty? I wanted the Dora one they have, but Mummy said they didn't have it there. Santa must have been buying them up for Christmas. I can put all my toys in there now! It will be over flowing after my birthday and Christmas. Mummy says we'll have to move to a bigger place with all the stuff I'll be getting.
My birthday party is only a couple more weeks away! I'm getting excited. I hope all my baby friends can make it! On my real birthday, Mummy and Daddy are going to take me to a place called Liliput. Its up the highway from us and they have play houses! I've never been there before!
I'm going to get my Christmas pictures and 1st birthday pictures taken next weekend. I have such a pretty dress to wear. Mummy was making me pose for her Christmas cards, but I didn't want anything to do with it. Here is a good picture of me mad, but you can see my 2 top teeth really well.
I'm a day late. I'm a busy 11 month old, what can I say? Can you believe that I'm almost a year old? My next monthly update will be HUGE!
Not much has been going on. I'm sick with another cold. I really have to stay away from those babies that are sickies! Other than that, I'm doing good. I've just been hanging out with Mummy and Daddy for the most part.
I got to meet some family that lives far away today over Grandma Ma's and Big Pappy F's house. I didn't get to stay long because I was tired and ready to sleep in my car seat. Uncle Matt showed me his drum set. I really liked it. Maybe I'll be in a girls rock band when I'm older.
I've been practicing walking everyday with someone holding onto my hands. I'm getting better. I'm still a long way from walking on my own though. Mummy says she'd rather me not walk until after my birthday. Walking and turning 1 must been too much for her. I think she misses me being so little.
I'm looking forward to my birthday party! Only 4 weeks left! Here are some pictures... like always!
My baby mohawk
Blue Tongue 
So much has happened. I went to the pumpkin patch and got my pumpkin. It was a fun day. We met up with Pap Rick, Gramma Bev, Uncle Rick, and cousin Kate. I got to play in hay and got a hay ride. Here are a couple of pictures from my day.
Today, Mummy took me to get my pictures taken in my Halloween costume. It was a lot of fun! I dont like wearing my hat though. I kept taking it off, so Mummy would try and trick me into keeping it on. It didn't work too well. Does she think I'm a clueless baby? Here are some of my favorites. (No, Mummy didn't buy all of them. She said I have 1st birthday and Christmas pictures coming up and she didn't want to spend a lot on these)
Aren't I so cute? I know I am. You dont have to tell me! I have to get Mummy or Daddy to upload the pictures of me carving my pumpkin!
I'll post a blog about my day at the pumpkin patch sometime after I'm feeling better. For now, here is a sneak preview. :)
Playing Peek a Boo with Mummy
Holy Moly Guacamole! I'm in DOUBLE DIGITS now! Can you believe I've been on the outside for 10 whole months now? It feels like I was just inside the warm and cozy home of my mummy's belly. Only 2 more months until my BIG FIRST BIRTHDAY!
Speaking of my 1st birthday, Mummy and Daddy have been working hard on planning my big bash. We went to the store and picked out different papers for my invitations. Mummy made me a tutu for my 1st birthday pictures. Its really pretty! I look like a little ballerina. Its brown and pink with sparkles! I'm not showing you yet, you'll have to wait until I wear it!
This past week, I've been walking along the furniture. Its my new trick. Daddy thinks I'll be walking before my birthday. I hope I don't let him down. But I know he'll love me no matter what.
Tomorrow, we're meeting my cousin Kate, Uncle Rick, Pap Rick and Gramma Bev at Soergel's to get our Hal-a-ma-ween pumpkins. I'm excited! I haven't seen Kate in so long! I'll be sure to post some pictures of us in the pumpkin patch.
Wonder why they call me Cheeks Magee?Hi Everyone. I know its been awhile since I last posted. I've been a busy girl. Playing with new friends, going shopping, visiting with my family, and of course napping. I promise I'll come back soon and write a good blog. But, here is a new video Mummy took of me the other night in the tubby. I like splashing!
Before My Hair Cut
After
Sleeping in my new car seat
My Cousin Amy and I :) :) :)
Thank you to Trisha for cutting my hairs today!
Hi Everyone! Just a little update on how my doctor's appointment was yesterday. He said I'm a very healthy girl! Here are my stats for 9 months:
I had to get my last Hepatitis B shot and a flu shot. I have to go back in 4 weeks to get a 2nd flu shot. I don't like shots. I cried. Even if I have big thighs, it still hurts. I have to go back for another check up in 3 months. That would make me 1 YEAR OLD!
After my doctor appointment, we went to Babies R Us and got me my big girl car seat. I've grown out of my infant carrier, so we traded it in and got a bigger seat! I'll have to take a picture of me in it for you! Its so much bigger than my old one. Its also pink and brown.. my favorite colors! :)
Mummy and Daddy also helped me pick out my Halloween costume. I'll just say that I'm going to be a witch and a very cute one! You'll have to wait until Halloween to get a picture of me in it.
Cousin Trisha is coming over today to trim my hair. Its getting long around my ears and my bangs will be in my eyes soon. So she's gonna make me pretty. (Like I need any help) I'll have Daddy take some pictures for you.
I'm 9 months old today! I can't believe I've been around for that long! I didnt do much for my birthday except for hang out at home with mummy and daddy. Friday I have to go to the doctor for my check up. Oh boy, I dont like going to the doctor. But, I'm going to be a big girl about it.
This past weekend, my Gramma Kim and Stan came to visit me from North Carolina. I havent seen them since May! I bet they thought I've grown a lot since then. They were only here for a couple of days, but I had fun seeing them. I even got to see cousin April and Tim and Uncle Rick too! I was a little sad when my Gramma left. I hope I get to see her soon.
I've been learning to crawl faster lately and on Sunday, Mummy came to get me out of my crib and I was standing up! I pulled myself all the way up to stand. I'm really trying to stand at the TV stand, but its still tough.
I've been eating more and more different kinds of foods. Here are some new foods I've had:
Lots of yummy things! I still eat some baby food, but I'd rather eat more textured things. My favorite are Lil Crunchies! I gobble them up.
I'll be back on Friday to update everyone on how my doctor's appointment went! Wish me luck!
I went to my 2nd birthday party today.
