Well, February is coming to a close. Trent, Olivia and I have had one lovely ride. Olivia is growing like a weed (developmentally, she is still relatively petite). Her personality is starting to show. We have already established that she will be a drama queen, a diva and today I discovered that she is very happy as a semi-nudist (diaper and socks only please). Lately, Olivia has begun to mimic the sounds we are making and then giggle. Trent and I can't help make all sorts of sounds to see what she might try. We are still working for that elusive picture of her smiling. When the camera comes out, the smile goes away!
This month, also marked the first time that we left Olivia with Nicole overnight. We took the time to travel to St. Louis for a short visit. We went for a short day trip to see if maybe St. Louis was a place to look for a practice. Unfortunately, the answer we received was no to St. Louis. We did have fun touring the Cardinal's Stadium and going up the Arch. That has been a goal of mine for the last 7 years. Trent and I also decided that while we love Olivia, we have no problems leaving her with someone we trust for a break.
