We had such a great time at Christmas! I'll have to let Shaun put some pics of that on. I think he took some. When he comes home I don't worry about getting pictures. Olivia had a wonderful first Christmas! She got all kinds of toys from everyone! She is still exploring each one. Music is one of her favorite things and she loves anything with it. She is starting to dance by bouncing around and is still trying to walk. She stands on her own really well but no steps alone yet. She was 10 months old on Christmas eve! Shaun and I are both shocked how fast she is growing. She says Mama, Dada (only when he is here) and doggy. She also has started to say Kiko which is Andrew's girlfriend Ross's dog. She is a huge dog that loves Olivia. Since she is still crawling still she has taken to carrying around items in her mouth, right now she is crawling with two puzzle pieces sticking out of her mouth. She is a very smart baby. Olivia and I are both sad that Shaun had to leave on Sunday. The time together was a wonderful tease, but we are all looking forward to this summer when he is home for good! Getting back to our house and our family will be Heavenly!!! For now we just keep moving forward. Shaun is excited to get school going again, and is busy there. He has some pics up on his blog and on flicker under Shaunbailey

Merry Christmas to all and Happy New Year!!!!
