The Goodman's Christmas Party






















For the 2nd year in a row we attended the Goodman's Christmas party. It was great to see all our friends and all the new babies. Lots of Olive's buddies now have younger siblings, all very cute.

Halloween Hoe-Down & Rib Throw Down





















Kansas City 2011


























We visited the family in KC this October. As always, it was a fantastic trip. The girls had a ball playing together. Olive was old enough to keep up and Reese was at her side the whole time. We attended two of Niely's soccer games (her team won both!) and we visited a pumpkin patch/apple orchard. Grandma KK and Grandpa Dan really rolled out the red carpet for us and we could not of had a better time! To top it all off Mike and Nancy showed up on Saturday!!!

1st day of school

















We have been having a lot of firsts lately. Olive started preschool in the begining of October. She is attending Dos Pasitos, a Spanish/English language school with a heavy montesorri influence. Her teacher is Ms. Birta, who Olive adores. Olive enjoys the school but is putting her father to work in the morning, refusing to get dressed and staging some meledramic goodbyes.

1st haircut!













It only took 2 years and 2 months, but Olive finally needed a haircut. We went to a stylish salon located across the street from the playground and Ms. Olive had her 1st haircut. She behaved well (thanks to the lollipop) and a good time was had by all.














We have also started potty training, at Olive's request. She started getting up in the middle of the night to let us know she had peed and that she would like her diaper changed. So far it is going well, kinda complicated by traveling and having her preschool teacher on vacation the last two weeks.

Bike parade







We did the Tour de Fat with Olive this year and she had the time of her life!





Olive turns 2






















Olive had a few birthday celebrations becuase her father happened to have his appendix out the same week. Despite the setback, she had a great b-day party with her friends.
