olive’s first beurffday present!

we were sooooo delighted one day to see the ups man walk up to our doorstep and drop off a large package. i wasn’t sure what it was…i knew i hadn’t ordered something recently and something so large!

i pulled the package inside and we were delighted to see it addressed to miss olive! it was her first birthday gift!!! we love packages. we love gifts. we love surprises! we knew dick and jane wanted to get this for olive but didn’t expect it so soon.

gramma and papa gifted olive with a pottery barn kids chair! sooooo awesome! it’s the washed grainsack anywhere chair. olive loves it, i love it, we love it so!

[oh my gosh! olive is my name]

jane had it personalize with olive’s name. even better. i assembled the chair {oh my, i broke a sweat doing so}, you wouldn’t think putting a chair like this together is hard but it kinda was! i smushed it, pushed it, and finally wrestled the zipper shut. wowza. the chair almost won but i conquered it. i plopped it down in the living room and olive immediately beelined for it.

oh, just watch her in the play by play down below. it’s too adorbs. she is so amused. she crawled up onto the chair and started to jump up and down {so excited}!

the sweetest part of the day/evening?? when we came home from my parent’s house, i placed her down on the ground. she crawled over to her chair, settled in, snuggled her bear(s), and was mesmerized by the tele. it was the cutest moment. i was so in love with it all.

dick and jane, thank you soooo much for olive’s birthday gift {we love you guys so!}. it is her favorite item. she loves to sit in it everyday and we love watching her sit in her chair. she is way too cute when she does. seriously, best present ever! she is such a little girl now with her big girl chair.
