Some funny stories

Olivia likes to talk to everyone around and is not shy at all.  Anyone that has met her knows this.  She is also still very unaware that anyone is ever watching her.  Hence the following story.  We had to go to the DMV to meet Frank my car salesman and have the title transferred over.  Frank walked in to the completely silent DMV where Olivia very politely stuck out her hand and stood up on her chair and said "Hi Frank nice to meet you I am Olivia"  he said it was nice to meet you too.  I then told her how he lived next to Auntie Angie.  So she asked, "You know Auntie Angie?!"  Then while standing up turned around and started shaking her rump asking Frank very loudly(reminder this is the most quiet place I have ever been with the girls) "Can you see me shake my rump?  Look Frank can you see my rump?  Look there is my rump."  That was most likely my proudest  moment of my daughter second to when she was learning to potty train and just squatted in the lawn next to Miley (the dog) who also squatted to pee.  Anyways we are currently sick with a cold but still in good spirits.  I can just tell that we don't feel well when we really just want to snuggle and watch cartoons or read books. 
Stella, is teaching herself how to go up and down the stairs.  She has had the up part down for some time now but still is not understanding the falling part of going down because she likes to dare mommy by standing at the top of our steps and then jolting just the top part of her body forward.  Someday she will fall down them and then she will not be so daring.  She is also getting her 10th tooth, a molar, which I would believe to be the most painful of teeth to get in.  She is currently living on Tylenol because it also gives her a little fever.  Also still in ridiculous spirits.  She said cheese today when she was getting her picture taken.  I believe she is going to chat people's ears off more than Olivia does.  She is much more shy around new people though and it takes her awhile to warm up in a new environment.  I am hoping that once she starts going to daycare she will get over that a little bit.  She is so sweet and still much more cuddlier than  O ever was.  We are almost starting to run.  The two girls love to play with each other and make each other laugh.  I can't wait until we can go outside and run in the backyard.  Maybe by July when all of the snow melts:)
