Girls Time

Olivia and I are holding steady at our house in CO, although she asks me every day; "Where's Daddy?" Michael did find a rental house for us (barely!). Our official move dates are August 1st (pack) and August 2nd (load). I'm trying to get a little birthday/going away party together for Olivia the weekend before we leave.
We went and visited her friends at Ms. Lindsay's house today and then she played with Liza, Landon, Beckham, Adam, and Natalie at our house. Sarah and Robyn arranged a little going away outing for us, which was so sweet! Sarah found 2 babysitters (there were 6 kids!) and then they treated me to a pedicure and 90 minutes of kid-free time. Nice! I don't think we'll ever be able to replace our awesome neighbors!

We're still on our quest to do all the fun things in Colorado one more time. Tomorrow we're driving to Mount Evans for a picnic and to hopefully spot some mountain goats. Today, I asked Olivia where she would like to go that's fun and she said; "Ummmm, the beach." OK, try again- "Where in CO?" "Ummmm, the bank." The people that work at the bank always make a fuss over her and give her a sucker!
We headed to Yogurt Your Way tonight after dinner (whoever invented self serve yogurt with toppings is a genius). I had french braided her hair into pigtails early this morning and one came out while she was napping. We also got some new hairbows in the mail, which she loved and was pretty insistent on wearing her red cowboy boots. This was the result:

Oh, well. The matchy-match baby days are over!

Here are 2 from July 4th. She cracks herself up!
