Too young to drive.

While I was having a great time in Minnesota with my Sister in law, I get a text from Chris that said, " You are not going to believe what just happened." In a panic I called him to ask what was wrong. Well Olivia thought it would be fun to take the car for a spin. Somehow she was able to get it in neutral which brought the car to move down the driveway onto the neighbors sidewalk and then back up to the bottom of our driveway. Chris heard her crying as she was walking up the driveway, just to find that the car was no longer in the garage. I asked her over the phone if she was scared, and she replied yes I then asked if she would ever do it again and she replied yes. This is just an example of how are little Liv is. She is 3 years old and has already made the first attempt to drive our car isn't that a little young? I am just so grateful no one was playing in our yard and that no one got hurt. I wish Chris took pictures, but I am sure they were all just a little shaken up. Lets just hope this is the last time Liv attempts to do something like this!

Olivia turns 3

Olivia is now 3 years old! She was so excited for her birthday party. We invited a couple of friends and cousins over to celebrate with us. I don't think I have ever seen someone burn through opening presents like her. She loved all of her presents, and chooses something different every night to sleep with her, even if it is a Dora racquetball.
Olivia's birthday itinerary:
Wake up with curlers still intact.
Owen attempts to get her dressed in soccer uniform, but mom protests that she needs to look like a princess on her birthday.
Play with Hunter and pull his hair.
Eat cinnamon rolls with Dad.
Get beautiful for her party.
Guests arrive.
Have a fun filled birthday party with presents, games, and cupcakes.
Friends leave.
Read stories with Dad.
Take a good nap.
Go swimming at the rec. center.
Meet Grandma and Grandpa Conger at JCWs for dinner.
Go swimming at our pool.
Go to bed with a bed full of new toys and a big smile!
Liv I am so in love with you. And even though you can make me cry and want to pull my hair out, I am so grateful for you and that you are mine forever! Love you and Happy Birthday.
