Big Girl's Don't Cry...They CRAWL!

Last night she figured it out. She is actually crawling on all fours - no more scootin' - that's for little kids!

UV Protection

Today is super-duper nice outside and while we were out and about, Josh decided he wanted to get Olivia some sunglasses. Let me tell you - they are too darn cute!! They even have a strap to hold them on her head and we got her a matching sunhat. Then we went home and played outside while daddy washed his car.
Just take a look at the pictures and the video below of our Saturday afternoon...





1st Easter

Last weekend was Libby's first Easter. We went up North to see the families and we had a blast!! We got lots of pics at Grandma Sandy and Grandpa Den's but our battery died and we didn't bring the charger so I can't post any of Grandma Nae and G-pa's house or any of Easter day until my parents send me some (hint-hint).

It was great to see everyone - It had been way too long! The Easter Bunny brought Libby a cell phone, a rattle and some rice puffs...she was really only interested in the cannister the puffs came in - of course!

6 Month Photography

Since Miss Olivia is going to be 6 months old in 4 days we had her pictures taken at JC Penny today! It was so much fun - we did family pictures and then 2 sittings of just her with her Easter dress from Grandma Nae on in some and her Hawkeye cheerleading dress from Jess in the others. So darn cute!

She sat all by herself - We never had to hold her up or anything! She's such a big girl, people! I will post a link to them as soon as they send it to me, so check back soon :)

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Busy LibBEE

It has been a whirlwind the past couple of weeks. Olivia is on such a learning streak! She is still working on perfecting her scoot/crawl moves, she is figuring out how to sit on her own and she is still busy talking, squeeling and growling.
She is becoming a handful at daycare scooting around and getting into everything :) She is starting to interact with other babies - she follows them around and climbs on them and talks to them. It's super cute to watch.
She is trying new food - the list so far is carrots, avacado, acorn squash and peas. And bananas, of course.
Dinner time has become naked time, too! Until this week, she sat in her high chair and ate her food. This week, she is putting her hands in her mouth trying to  "feed" herself and then rubbing her belly, her face, her hair and anything else she can get her hands on - it is quite the mess!

I guess that's all the new news we have going on around here. Josh and I are really enjoying spending time with her; spending time with our family. These are the best days of our life and it's only going to get better.

Fun with Fletchie

Peek-A-Boo

We were hanging out in the kitchen this afternoon and Libbs was playing on a little play mat thingy. She was haveg herself a great time rolling and scooting around. Josh and I stepped into the other room for a quick minute to look at something. When we turned around, this is what we saw:

 

She must have grabbed the edge of the mat and rolled with it....It was hilarious!!  I made the video from 3 pictures Josh took of the event. She is so much fun - I am sure I've said that before :)

On the Move!

It went faster than we thought! I was sure on Wednesday when she learned to get up on her hands and knees that we would have a couple of weeks before she actually figured out how to move. But NO! She was ready to go right now, so yesterday she taught herself to scoot :)

The video's not the greatest because we already wore her out a little before we got the camera out...But it's still fun.
