Friday, September 21st

It was Daddy's birthday today! We had a lot of preparations that needed to happen before we picked him up at lunch time, so Olivia & I did our shopping at light speed! Everyone in the store was charmed by Olivia - she was looking particularly cute today - in honor of Daddy's birthday. Then Jessica came over to play with Olivia while I started baking & cleaning. Thank goodness! Olivia had lots of fun.
Daddy was very pleased with all his birthday treats. Olivia got him a collector's edition of The Hobbit. (Today is 75th anniversary of The Hobbit's publishing date, too!)
Olivia was fascinated by Bertram's singing today, and he seemed to be serenading her particularly. They have a fine feathered friendship developing.
She is so funny sometimes. I can put her in front of her toys and she will cry, but if I take off her clothes and put her in front of her toys she is happy as a lark! She just loves being naked! I suppose it's appropriate for her to celebrate Daddy's birthday in her birthday suit.
