Our 5 year old

Our little O on her "birth" day. What a precious site. I'll have to blog a post on her birth alone...amazing!

Speaking of amazing, look at that child. Her personality was in full bloom already, at only 1 year of age. You know, she used to flirt with the wait-staff in restaurants, throwing things on the floor just as they were walking by, in order to get their attention, then proceed to charm them with her adorable smile that could light up a city block!

A bonified princess at age 2! She must have been petite, hard for me to recall details, but I know Joey wore that same green fleece sweater last fall.

What a doll, Olivia was a trying 3-year old, but she has become the sweetest, most considerate, caring, and encouraging child. We see it on a daily basis in the way she is with her younger siblings.

Ah, 4. Yes, that is when she started to mellow out a bit, and we all began to enjoy each other more and more.

And now here we are with our 5 year old. We just can't fathom how the time has flown by. Time can certainly stand still anytime now:) We're so proud of you Olivia.
