Well, I guess it was bound to happen. Yesterday was really nice and Baskin Robins was giving out 31 cent cones. Since we like bargains, we all headed over there after dinner to enjoy some ice cream. Olivia got a scoop of strawberry in a cone and ate the whole thing by herself, even finished before Annie did! After the ice cream we headed back home and spent some time in the back yard. I was chatting with Tim about something or other and looked over at Olivia…she was holding something in each hand. I wasn’t sure what it was….she raised one hand to her mouth…at that point I realized what it was…and then the world started moving in slow motion…I yelled out Ohhh-liiiiiv-eeee-aaaaa, Nooooo! And ran over there and shook her arms and two lumps of crusty old dried out dog do-do dropped to the grass. Now, if the poo actually made it into her mouth, I can’t say. We pried open her jaws and saw no residue so I don’t know…it’s still gross! I sanitized her hands and we decided to get on with the poop tester the vet gave us a few months back. From what I’ve read online (apparently this happens more than you would think) she should be fine. I am starting to wonder about her taste in food though. Last Sunday, we were out working in the garden and Annie found her little friends (the worms) again. She tried to bring them inside, I told her to put them back outside…she put them on the back porch step, where Olivia found them, and then Tim found them in Olivia's mouth. I’m starting to think we should enter her in some baby Fear Factor competition. What could they make her eat that is worse than worms and dog poo?
Oh yes, and to end on a positive note - Olivia said her first real word yesterday - "Bye-bye"
