2 months old!

We can't believe it but Olivia is already two months old! She is smiling and talking/cooing quite a bit these days. She also had her two month check up at the peditrician today and she is doing very well. She is weighing in at 10lbs and 11 ounces and she is 22 1/2 inches tall. That puts her in the 72% for her weight and 77% for her height. She is going to be taller than me by the time she is five if she keeps growing at that rate!


Here are some pictures from the past couple of weeks:

Hope all is well with everyone.

Olivia's First Vacation


We went to Sisters for a small break this past weekend. It was Olivia's first mini-vacation. We went over with Brody's parents and had a great time!

Olivia did great in the car, sleeping most of the time. She made a new friend at the house where we stayed, it was a celing fan and she thought that it was the best thing since sliced bread. She spent much of the weekend smiling and talking to the fan.

While Olivia was playing with the fan, the rest of us relaxed, enjoyed the beautiful weather and Brody and his Dad even played 18 holes of golf at the Aspen Lakes golf course.

Here are some pictures from our trip:

Brody, Brigitte, Olivia and Kona (who spent the weekend with his cousin Marley)

Having Fun

Hello everyone,

Checking in on week seven of my leave. Time is flying by - we can't believe that Olivia will be six weeks old this Wednesday. We have a pretty good routine established by now and are getting a fair amount of sleep (not all at once but if you add it all up it's not too bad).

We have been lucky enough to have a lot of help from our family and friends and we couldn't have done it with out them. Everyone has been very helpful in keeping the house clean, preparing meals and holding Olivia (everyone's favorite job). We greatly appreciate all of the help and have really enjoyed spending time with everyone.

Speaking of Olivia, she is changing and learning new things everyday. She is smiling and becoming much stronger. Brody is sure that she will talking any day now! We are all doing well and love life with our little girl. We will check back in again soon.

Love,
Brody, Brigitte, Olivia and Kona
