Take it To Go

A few weeks ago, Liv & I met up with my sister & my mom to spend some time together. We decided to meet at Olive Garden, which is one of our absolute favorites!

Mom had picked up Livia from Day Care, so I was ready to go in plenty of time. Amazingly, I arrived there first! Mom, Liv, and Laura were very shortly behind me, and we had a GREAT time & delicious meal together.

Livie and I didn't quite finish our dinners, so we decided to get a to-go container. When the server brought the box over to us, Livia had her own idea of taking the left-overs home:

How funny is this?!

And bless her heart, our server actually said we could take the bowls home! Though I'm sure they would have been a fun souvenir, Liv had absolutely no attachment to the bowls. She just thought that's what she was supposed to do to take the left-overs home.

As we were leaving, Livia convinced her Aunt Laura to help her touch the lion:

To which Laura got LOTS of hugs:

And kisses:

SO sweet :o)

After our yummy dinner, we headed over to the mall (where my sis talked me into some fabulous outfits!), and where Liv provided even more entertainment for us. Please excuse the side-ways-ness video... Couldn't figure out how to turn it. Call it artsy... or call me ditzy! No matter what, I call it hilarious!!!

Notice how she never once even paused throughout the entire video? Well, she actually didn't really stop for like 10 minutes. I can't imagine what other shoppers thought of my toddler marching around in that little hat, singing at the top of her lungs!
