Olivia hits the 14 month mark tomorrow.

When she’s not busy tearing yards of toilet paper off the roll or dining on cat food, Olivia likes to spend her time climbing. I’m thinking of getting her a ladder just to increase her efficiency.

She’s also experimenting with sustained and incredibly loud tantrums. (Most commence when I pull her off the chair–or table.)

Still, though, she’s retaining some characteristics of a sweet baby–she still loves to cuddle and rock before bedtime, she isn’t completely comfortable until she has her blanket and pacifier, and she still doesn’t sleep through the night.

She blows kisses, smooches with her dolls, says about a dozen little words and gets into things Ava never even noticed.

And speaking of, she sure seems to love her big sister.
