I thought you might enjoy a peek at Olivia on camera. I was really trying to get film of smiley Olivia cooing at me, but as usual she stopped as soon as the camera came out. I did catch one smile in this video and one very small coo, but in real life she can be very talkative and smiley.
I also have another story to tell about her. On Friday, she and I went clothes shopping because I needed to find a new outfit for Robby's brother Tommy's upcoming wedding. When we went to Macy's one of the sales ladies approached me so that she could admire Olivia. Olivia looked up at the woman and gave her this huge grin. I was totally surprised because thus far she has only smiled for someone in the family, and I told the woman that she was the first stranger that Olivia has smiled for. The lady was so charmed that as if by magic she offered me a 15 % off coupon for the things I bought at Macy's that day. Score one for Olivia! I will have to remember this trick for the future because I always like to save money!

And they say being a Mom doesn't pay!?!?! I think this calls for buying 15% more! :)
Sharon - FINALLY!! I have been googling Robby's name, your name, every transposition of both of your names and any other identifying word I could think of FOREVER to try and track you guys down to say HI! Thanks to Mark and Victoria for having your blog up on their site. Wow - your family is big and beautiful. So many congratulations! I'll have to tell Ben I finally found you guys...this is so exciting.
(Little Robbie is HUGE!! I cannot believe it!)
Yay! I love the internet! I am so happy you found us! Your family is absolutely beautiful. Yes, I did get married about 2 years ago (in June). I also went on a mission to Lima, Peru (I've been home since Jan. '06). I graduate with a BM in harp performance in May. No kids, yet, but that's in the plans. YAY!!!!
What a cutie! I can't wait to see that grin in person. Hope she doesn't think I'm a stranger. strange, OK, but not a stranger.
