1mo old!





So our baby girl is already one month old! WOW where does the time go? I think that sleep deprivation definitely makes time go faster!

But, we are all doing well and healthy! Olivia is very big she is already 9lbs, we went to a breast feeding support group the other day and I found out that she is big compared to her peers, but hey that means that she is getting the nourishment that she needs...right?

Well, this past month sure has been very fast and we have been learning a lot of things. We have many frustrations, and many joys, but all in all we are blessed to have such a wonderful and healthy baby girl!

I would love to write more, but I have a baby girl who is only happy if she is being held and that makes it very difficult to get anything done, including typing...and she is calling :)

Happy Halloween!














Hello everyone!

So for those of you who know how hard it is to get a good photograph of an infant I thought that you may think that this is kinda funny!

Also there is one in there just to show off the cuteness of tinyness (I am aware both of these words may not really be words:)

Olivia's stats

So Olivia and I went to the Dr. yesterday! It sure is hard to get places these days :)

I should have already known this, but it is so different when it is your own baby. Also, formula is so much more convient than breast milk.

Anyway, our sweet baby girl is growing...well kind of...

new weight: 8lbs 1oz
new height: 19.5 in

yes I know this is one inch shorter than her birth length and that is why I said kind of....I'm sure she didn't actually shrink and it is just the difference in the person measuring.

But, Olivia and mommy are doing very well! We don't need to go to the Dr. until she is 2 mo old now! That would be Dec 7th! I can't believe that she is already almost three weeks old, that is almost one mo. :) I know Lance makes fun of me for saying this, but gosh time flys and I am excited for the future and to see her grow, but at the same time I love this stage so much!

Also, on a different note, does anyone know how to add music to your blog?

2 weeks old!







Wow time flies when your having fun! Little Miss Olivia is two weeks old already! We go to the Dr. on Thursday so we will see how she is doing! So far so good at home! She is a great little baby she is eating fine and sleeping fine too!

Here are some pictures, if you notice Mrs. Snail is going to be what we will take her picture next to occasionally to gage her growth!

We all send our love to everyone!

Thank you for the gifts, kind words, and encouragement from all!

P.S. I had to add the one of the other loves of my life! Yes, Lance and the dogs are doing all right too! All in need of some extra love though! :)

1 week check up

So little Olivia is almost a week old already! Lance and I had some wonderful family time last night that consisted of just gazing at our beautiful little one! We were both thinking that we love her so much and don't want her to grow up (of course we do want her to because if she didn't she wouldn't be healthy...but you know what we mean!)

Olivia had her one week check up today and the Dr. gave us some good ideas to keep her milk down and it has worked today so far! I also never thought that a big poop would be the excitement of my day, but welcome to mommyhood! Sorry no call Sara, I guess I just was not thinking.

O is almost to her birth weight she is now 7lbs 4oz and in case I didn't mention yet as cute as ever!

Thank you everyone for your visits and gifts! I have a list of thank you's to make but have yet to actually make them. Life sure did get busy once she was born! But I wouldn't change anything!

She is sleeping pretty well thought the night, but wakes up for feedings but Lance does night duty so I wouldn't know too much. I think last night was a little hard for him, but he loves it all too!

I love to see all of you and please feel free to visit anytime as long as you are all feeling well!

Time to feed the princess again!
