One Month Old!!

I can't believe it but Olivia is already one month old. I can't believe how fast time is flying by- I guess everybody was right when they told me how fast it was going to go. We went to the doctor and surprisingly she weighs in at 8 pounds 15 ounces. She is growing so much and getting so big!

Thanks a lot Uncle Jeffy!

Venturing Out Into The World

Well I finally got brave enough to take Olivia out of the house. I spent about 3 weeks in the house and I was going a little crazy myself. Our first official outing was to see her big cousin Kaylie's school Christmas program. Kaylie did such a good job as an elf and Olivia did a good job of sleeping through everything. The next day we went out to eat to celebrate the news of finding out we are going to have a new little boy in the family in about 3 months. We are all so excited to find this news out and can't wait until the little guy is here! Last Sunday was a busy day for us- we went to Kaylie and Maddie's church Christmas program and then we had our first Christmas party at my aunt and uncle's house. Olivia was really good through all of these outings which is making me a little more confident about taking her out.

2 Weeks

We made it through another week! I can't believe how fast the days seem to be flying by. It seems as though I wake up with her early in the morning and before I know it- it is time for bed again. We had our first doctors appointment last Wednesday and Olivia is doing great. She was at 7lbs 4oz and at 20 3/4in. So she is gaining weight- which is a relief to hear because she still seems so tiny to me! She is still kind of fussy at night- but can go for stretches of 4 hours where she is sound asleep. She is staying awake more and more after she eats which is fun because I get to talk to her- even if she just stares at me like I am crazy!
