Omigosh, just a quick post, but I discovered that Olivia has an aversion to flies, or bugs that can fly! Today, she was happily having her afternoon snack of milk & apples, watching her Leap Frog DVD. I took the opportunity to clean up in the kitchen, when I hear her jibbering a lot and not eating her apples, nor watching her DVD. She would jibber at her apples and jibber/screech at me. So I walk over to look at her apples and see this big fat fly in walking along her bowl. I shoo it away and take her apples to the kitchen to wash. As I walk away, she starts screaming more and clearly not happy. I thought it was because I took her apples away, but when I gave it back, she was looking around the room, jibbering and starting to cry. By then my Mom came by and I let her in, to which Olivia proceeded to squeal. We took her out of her highchair, but by then she was crying and freaking out, looking around the room and screaming on occasion. Finally, we were able to distract her by getting her to the kitchen sink to play with soapy water. But even then she'd freak out every so often. We relayed this to my Dad when he came over to cook dinner, and he told me that she was scared when they were watching a video that had bumble bees in it. I guess the 2's are kicking in. Hopefully this fear will pass!
