growing girl!

olivia finally had her 9 month appointment. she weighs 23.1 lbs, is 29 1/2 inches long and i don't remember her head circumference but don't worry- it's above the 97th percentile. whatever that means. big brains, right?! a few shots of the biggest girl......

we went to the driving range with adam the other night and she was not in to it. 

she loves to stand up and lean against the wall. so fancy!

you know you're pooped when you can't quite lay down to go to sleep...poor thing was practicing yoga in her sleep last night.


yes, i bribe my baby with food. don't judge me. she finally started crawling and not scooting the other day. i had to roll up her dress though, otherwise she was slipping and sliding all over the wood floor. she thinks she is big stuff now.

Please tell me you moved her from that position! That is hilarious! How in the world could she fall asleep like that?! I love her hands smacking the wood floors! They look so clean, do you have to clean them like everyday now that she is crawling all over? So dang cute!

Dear Miss Olivia,
Please crawl your way to Lehi. I promise to give you a big smooch.
Thank you,
Brody Matthew

So sweet. I love her little baby babble in the video, it reminds me of Animal from the Muppet Babies...she's like, "get over here you darn yogurt melts!!" Such a sweetheart. Can't wait to meet her! I bribe molly with cookies, so don't worry about a thing :)

Oh my gosh, hilarious. I love the grunt when she finally gets it, like, OK OPEN IT!!

All sane mothers (who are honest) bribe their kids with food, never feel guilty for rewarding good behavior :). Unfortunately the bribes must escalate as the children age...Bracken and Abbie are now very aware of the wonderful things that can be purchased at Target and they negotiate for what prize they feel is equal to the task. Tate is still totally satisfied with M&M's. Ruby gets whatever is left over!

Olivia is totally darling and growing sooo fast!

I don't know why you don't just call this the Olivia blog because there is nothing on here about you or Adam anymore. :)

Her crib picture sleeping sitting up is really cute. Now she's moving all around!

Those pictures of her sleeping positions are very impressive! Maddie and Mylie both ruined several hems in their dresses when they were crawling, because their dresses would get caught under them. Olivia is such a cutie!
