One of the ladies (Carmen) that takes care of Olivia in Kingdom Kids decided to throw a princess party for all of her girls. Carmen probably worked about 6 week planning this party. Everytime I would pick up Olivia she would be cutting out princess decorations. Well needless to say the party of was hit with the girls. Carmen did a wonderful job decorating the room and making it look like a princess castle. We love Ms Carmen and she loves her girls. She told us she did it because she loves her girls and wanted to do something special her them. All I have to say is Ms Carmen rocks!!
The Saturday after my birthday we went to Tiki Island which is about a mile or two north of Galveston to go to Emma's birthday party. Emma's mom and day used Los Nino's as well for their adoption. We got to see Brianna too. Tiki Island is great. The day of the party was an overcast day but there was a breeze and it just felt good. The girls had a lot of fun together. Olivia kept calling Brianna, "My friend Brianna." It was so cute to see how well they got along with each other.

One my birthday we went to Moody Gardens. I wanted to go to some place fun as a family. We saw the IMAX movie and went through the Rainforest and Aquarium. Olivia loved the Aquarium. She was so funny. We were at a very large tank with a lot of fish and she pointed out Dory, Mr. Ray and Bruce the Shark to us. It was hilarious because she was so serious about it. We also saw Nemo and Ming Ming from the "Wonder Pets." She absolutely loves animals. She is always asking when are we going to the zoo again.
On Mother's Day we celebrated at Saltgrass. Mom and Dad had spent the night with us on Saturday and then went to church with Olivia and me. Later that afternoon, we met Rodney and his family at Saltgrass. It was a great time.
A couple of weeks ago we went to Sydney's (a friend from church) birthday party at Stude Park. It was a lot of fun. Olivia got a taste of how mean little boys can be. She was waiting in line to hit the pinata when Peter and I saw her starting to break in line. So we walk over there to tell her not to do it when a boy around 6 or 7 years old pushed her down. I wanted to push or rather knock the little boy down but I restrained myself. I didn't want to make a scene because I didn't know many of the people there. Olivia cried but I think it was more her feelings being hurt and not being hurt. One of the little boys there did tell me that she shouldn't break in line and I told him that boys should not push little girls down. The little boy that did push her wouldn't even look at me. Mama bear came out that day.
