Olivia's Christening

The day after Christmas was Olivia's special day as she got Baptized. She was surrounded by her friends and family. It was also special to me as 31 years ago, I was baptized Christmas Eve and I was only 2 months younger than Olivia. I have pictures of me in my Christening gown under the Christmas tree. What a special Day!

Christmas Morning

This was Olivia's First Christmas and she got so many gifts from everybody! It was the first Christmas with my parents here and we played Chirstmas music, had my hubby's delious french toast and Hot Choclate...Mexican style! Olivia even had her Christmas Morning outfit on that grandma bought for her. Christmas sure does mean something so much more now that Olivia is here!

Candlelight Tour

We went to the Annual Candlelight Tour given by the Heritage Society to support Nicole! Olivia took a picture with Santa and no crying! The weather was quite chilly and it being an all outdoor event, Nicole took us to the VIP room to warm up and then headed out to dinner with the family. It was a nice event and it was great to see everybody!

In The Middle Of The Night

Olivia at times does not like her crib and cries herself to sleep. Its hard on us, but we are hoping she will eventually like her crib. She cried a bit and we could hear noises from the monitor that she was moving around, but didn't want to look since seeing us would make her cry even more. I woke up and checked on her in the middle of the night and was surprised to see where she was and what she did to her crib. Thats our girl!

Daddy Thursday - Olivia has daddy!

Too cute not to share. Looks like Olivia has got daddy just where she wants him. She has that look of don't move or I'll poop on you!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Michael, Olivia and I went to Arizona to spend Thanksgiving with my parents. The weather was great and we had fun spending time with my family. We had a party just for Olivia, went to Zoo lights and spent Thanksgiving at my mom's friends house. Olivia sure did enjoy being center of attention!

Peek-a-boo I can see you!

We like to put Olivia in her bumbo to watch TV or just hang out, but she has discovered a new way of looking at us from her bumbo. She likes doing this as we have caught her doing this quite a few times, especially if we are in the kitchen. Thats our girl looking at things in a different way...haha!

Daddy Thursday - Who is all smiles?

Who loves being with Daddy? The picture tells it all.....

Happy Halloween!

Olivia went to her first Halloween Party and then went to her Aunt Michelle's house. She had a full packed evening. No trick or treating for her as it was a chilly evening! She sure did enjoy being with everybody!

Opps! Where is Olivia?

Now that Olivia can sit up by herself she now likes to hang out on her blanket to play with all her toys. Sometimes she ends up on her back and loves to roll around. I guess she rolled around a little to much as she was chewing on the blanket and wrapped herself up like a burrito. How could you not take a picture of this?

Pumpkin Patch

We took Olivia to her first pumpkin patch. It was a perfect cool sunny day. She looks so cute surrounded by pumpkins. Enjoy our little pumpkin!

Daddy Thursday - Being on Daddy's Shoulders

Look at Olivia on daddy's shoulders! She will grab his hair and try to mess it up. Olivia has a new place to sit as we just sit back and relax on the couch. She has fun being on his shoulders.
