The weekend began with receiving the package that Dave sent to our house which was the kids birthday present. He bought the kids a table from IKEA with two little chairs. He stained the table for them and had it sent to our house to arrive while he was in town.
On Saturday he put the table together for them, and it is the cutest table ever!!! They can't get on the chairs on their own just yet, but Olivia will definitely try, and Olivia can get down all by herself.
The first couple of days of having the table made us feel that we were constantly putting the kids in the chairs to only take them down 5 minutes later when they wanted to get down. But the table is great and it is something that they will get tons of use out of for years to come!!!
On Saturday night we went out to dinner with Dave, and the kids. After dinner we went to a kids shoe store to buy Olivia a pair of shoes that she can wear outside since now that she walks she will be going outside at day care to play on the playground. We had her wear them around the house on Sunday to let her get use to them and she was so funny! Her balance was a little off in the new shoes as we think the way she typically has good balance is through curling her toes into the ground which she can't do in her new shoes. But she was able to pick up the speed in the new shoes so it seemed like she was practically running around the house!!!

Wow- the table and chairs are adorable!!! They will get lots of use out of those through the years, I can already picture Olivia making Alex have tea parties with her- that is totally what I would have done if I had a twin!
I also have to say that Olivia's hair is just too cute! Those little flippy curls she has going on are precious.
