Growing

Even though Olivia is still just a little peanut according to the medical charts, I still can't believe how much she has grown in the last 3 months.  It is easy to see when one of the kids try to hold her.  She fit so nice in Micah's arms a few months ago and now he has a hard time handling her head, arms and legs! :)

She has been a good little baby, but has only slept through the night once. (This mommy would really like it to be a little more often.)  It seems like we have a little stretch where we struggle with something, but then it passes and things are well again. 

Here are some new picture of our little one!

 Nick always brings Olivia to see me right after her bath and she can pull some funny faces!

 She is smiling all the time these days and is so close to being able to roll over.  Growing up so fast!

 She had her first taste of baby cereal the other night and she loved it!

 She is really enjoying laying on the floor.  Here she is laying on the quilt that my mom made for her and she is being entertained by her big sister!

 Olivia is pretty happy as long as there is someone nearby who looks at her every now and then.  That is what was happening during this peaceful moment.

 More smiles!
 Snug as a bug!  Like the other two she sleeps best when she is wrapped up.  She actually got her hand out during this nap time and was still sleeping!  So precious!

Christmas

So I know that Christmas is long past, but I wanted to get a few pictures posted before I completely forgot.  Christmas was a wonderful season and we enjoyed it with many family gatherings!
