our bundle of JOY

So Olivia is 6 weeks old tomorrow! My goodness! She is so big! I know that she really is still small and looks like a brand new baby to some, but to others, I have heard that she looks like a 3 month old. I know that we have bigger babies in my family and wasnt expecting anything different. She is already 12.5lbs :) healthy growing baby. I cant help but stare at her! And I know I haven't taken so many pictures of the same thing before... Im very grateful that we are in the digital age and that we dont have to purchase film anymore! Can you imagine?! I'm averaging at least 3 pictures a day. I think I should cut back.

I love being home with her spending all day together. Its comforting to be able to know what she needs because I know her so well. Its funny all her different cries. I am especially fond of  the 'I'm bored' cry and the 'stop trying to feed me, I'm full' cry.They are both quite amusing.

I read a couple books to her a few weeks back, but decided it was probably too early. Last night I read a few books to her and she loved it! It will be a normal routine for us now. I am looking forward to reading to her and making those memories for both of us :)

Olivia is almost sleeping through the night! YAY! she is sleeping a consistent 5 hours right now, hopefully that will naturally extend itself :) But how can I complain at getting up once to feed her for 15-20 minutes and then putting her right back down to sleep? I cant. She IS PERFECT!













A few weeks ago we did a 'photo shoot' at my parents house and then brought my Dad's camera home and i was able to take more here. They turned out pretty good! I now am forced to choose those that I want to frame. And then where to hang them... I am looking forward to it... really I am :) but here is a few.. enjoy.
