4 Months Old!

4 months old today! It seems like it was just yesterday that Olivia joined our family! She is starting to get her own little personality. She loves to laugh and smile. She is such a great baby - just like Sophia WAS. :) She definitely knows her big sis. When Sophia is around, Olivia doesn't take her eye off of her! Obviously, she is eating well! We go to her next doctor appointment in about a week, so I'll update her stats then.

*UPDATE*
Olivia had her 4 month checkup on Monday, 4/25.
Weight: 16# 2 oz
Height: 25.25"

She's growing like crazy! Sophia's stats at this age were just about the same!

Sweet Home Alabama

Our first stop was Huntsville, AL to see Auntie Gyp! It was her first time meeting Olivia, and she was on Cloud 9!

Hugs for Gyp!
And big smiles!


From there, we went on to Sheffield to see my Grandmother, Moms.

Sleepy girl.
Coloring with Moms.
Also, Moms' first time meeting Olivia. Again, Cloud 9....

We also stopped to visit one of my dear friends, Jillian and her son, Grady.


Visit to Spring Park in Tuscumbia.

LOVED the train - we rode it twice!


Sophia's first rollercoaster. Not a fan!
Sophia and Pops with her future car - made by Pops!


On our way back home we stopped at a rest stop for a picnic and photo ops.

Playgroup birthday party

Sophia and I joined a playgroup with a few Mommies and babies we met at our breastfeeding group. Sophia was about 7 or 8 months old at the time. We still meet every week! Most of the "older" kids have birthdays around the same time, so we have a playgroup birthday party for all of them.










Some of the kids - it's hard getting them all together!












Opening gifts! Everyone brought a gift, and we did a gift swap!














Sophia with her bestie, Sabrina











Ending the day with some sidewalk chalk!

Sophia

These pictures are from late 2010, but I love them, so I thought I would share.
Even though you can't see her, Olivia is in this picture - in utero! :)

3 Months Old!

Happy month day to my Little Sweetie! At her 2 month appointment, Olivia's pediatrician asked us if Olivia was smiling and cooing at us. We said no. Dr. Z said for us to let her know if she didn't start responding within the next month because we would have to have her eyes tested to see if she could see us. I was so worried, but alas, no need for tears! Olivia has been smiling and laughing this past month. I tried to capture the smile, but of course, my camera was delayed when I snapped it. She doesn't go back to the doctor until next month, so I don't know her stats. Other than that, we are having a blast with our two sweethearts! <3

"Airplanes" by Sophia


My girl loves to sing! Thankfully, she loves pop music so I don't have to listen to kid songs all day!

Gymboree with our playgroup

The gal at Gymboree wanted to hold Olivia! She held her the entire time, so I could play with Sophia. :)
Bubbles !
Music and songs
Balancing act
So fun!
