September 2013

* When Cassie first met Olivia she called her Caleb (our boy name).  She finally got it and would tell us "It's Olivia.  Not Caleb.  There's no Caleb right now." 
* Whenever Olivia cries Cassie says "Olivia wants to eat mommy's boobie!"
* Started potty training Cassie.  Within the first 5 minutes of taking off her diaper she pooped on the carpet and let out a very loud "OH MY GOODNESS!
