Do you believe in LOVE at first sight??

It's been awhile since there was a Jimmy+Olivia=LOVE edition of this blog. There was even a rumor, started by my sister, going around that Jimmy and Olivia were breaking up. I'm here to officially put that rumor to rest. Jimmy and Olivia are still going strong. Mina, the mini harlot has been trying to move in on Olivia's man, but only because her mom just had a baby and she is acting out. Either that or Hatsumi's been babysitting her while Mina's mom went into fake labor and then actual labor. I've only seen pictures, but the new baby looks BEAUTIFUL!

If you haven't caught on quite yet: I've been TERRIBLE with my camera, so all of these are stolen from Hatsumi, who is a worthy camera owner.

It has officially been one year that the love birds have been smitten with one another. On their very first date they trashed the Petersen's apartment by playing with the weekly ads. SO, we decided, in sentimental memory, that we would have an "Ads Party" to commemorate their year-milestone:
Looks like fun, huh? That's Mina, the cutest little man-stealing baby of all time.
They have apparently outgrown the ads party... it lasted at best a minute.
And Mina seriously had the most fun. I guess it was new to her.
The playmat was a must have at the party since it was a fixture of their FIRST ads party.

The highlight of the party had to be this:
In case you didn't know, Olivia has an intense love of cribs. I'm not sure what it means in the long term, you know the love of being behind bars, but she SUPER loves Jimmy's crib and often demands that she get in it. And then demands that Jimmy get in it. And on this day, that Mina get in it, too. And then they JUMP. WILDLY.
At first Mina didn't know what to do with these two crazy kids, but eventually she warmed up to the idea.



A few weeks ago Hatsumi introduced us to an awesome little pumpkin patch that embarrassingly enough, Olivia and I have returned to on several occasions. You'll see. I have an entire blog planned on it. Jimmy doesn't get enough face time on this blog for being my future son-in-law so here you go:



We've been having the nicest weather lately. Last year I was shivering by mid-September so I don't know if I've just gotten accustomed to this freaky climate or what, but it has seriously been duck feeding weather. We love going to the park with Jimmy:
Here Olivia and Jimmy fight over who gets control of the bubble wand. Did you know it is almost impossible to find bubbles in stock in October???
Lovebirds. Too bad there is a trash can in the background of the cutest picture ever. Oh, and yes, Olivia has been able to fit in that tutu for OVER A YEAR.
Olivia can actually blow bubbles now. Not just eat vast quantities of soap and get diarrhea.

Olivia has gotten far too brave at the duck pond. She is seriously going to land IN it one of these days.

And if you think Olivia stealing Jimmy's bubble wand is enough to keep these two apart:
Holding hands. The best pair ever. Screw you, Romeo and Juliet, Cleopatra and Marky Poo, Sarah Palin and Todd...

Oh and this is from FOREVER ago, but once when Hatsumi and Corey babysat one day took the kids to Costco.
Olivia will still tell me she went there with Jimmy and they "EAT."

The end. The moral: LOVE conquers all.

Baby love! So sweet! I love Olivia's W&M shirt. Maybe you should move back...

Or come to Texas. How do you feel about Texas?

Ha ha! So cute! He looks like an adorable son-in-law. But, Stacy, seriously, if they move, Wisconsin clearly beckons before Texas...

Also, LOVE all the pictures. You are truly what a blogger should be, even if you stole them from a friend. That just shows true dedication. :)

Oh, whoops. That was Keegan, but Patrick was signed in. Whatever. We can pretend like Patrick just said "cute" and "adorable" and enjoy that if we like.
