Getting So Big!

Olive is getting so big, so fast! She is already 7 months. She's looking more and more like a little girl every day.

Olive's New Ride

Olivia got a new bike trailer and we can finally go on family rides together! It's been one of the best purchases we've ever made -well worth the money!

Here is Olive getting ready for her first ride all packed and loaded in snug as a bug...she looks a little suspicious.

Sacked out by the time we got home!

Our little princess in her carriage.

Adorable Toddler Tutu Skirt

Look at this adorable tutu made by my friend Samantha! I love how whimsical it looks with the amazing material and different shades/lengths of blue... Wouldn't you feel like a fairy princess if you got to wear one?

Oatmeal Brulee!

I love getting this delicious treat when we are out to breakfast and I found a homemade recipe in this month's Cookie Magazine! You don't even need a torch - just put it under the broiler for some serious breakfast goodness:)

Directions:

After cooking your oatmeal add a pinch of salt, some honey or brown sugar, then nuts/rasins/berries whatever you like.  Then finish it with a layer of sugar (1/8 in thick) and put it under the broiler for a few minutes until it's brown and bubbling vigorously.  

enjoy:)

High Chair Success

I was all ready to get the big high chair because Olivia is outgrowing her Bumbo when it comes to eating.  The one I was looking at was the $150 Zen Collection high chair.  Then it occurred to me that I don't really want a big 'ol high chair taking up yet more space in our baby gear filled house. Plus, $150 bucks is a lot of money. I am so happy with my decision to get a $25 Ikea high chair that is about 1/3 of the size! Why spend so much on something you don't want - that takes up too much space!? Olivia loves it too, she's been having a ball in it! I made my first batch of organic locally grown baby food yesterday and I'm so happy that she loves it:)
