Our little Tootsie!

Olivia is smiling every day, but she's on the verge of laughing now. It's so adorable. The other night I was giving her a bath and she was having so much fun she started to giggle. Usually when she giggles it scares her and she starts to cry, but this time it was all giggles. Also, since our little girl is on the gassy side, we started calling her tootsie. She loves it! Ava calls her Toot! She's doing a lot better with lifting her head. She had tummy time and Grandma Jo's house and she was lifting her head to look at a dancing mouse toy. We're hoping to get her to lift her head more by the end of the month. She also got a penguin as her toy to focus on to lift her head and it came with a star registry code. She now has her own star in the andromeda constellation. Andromeda was greek princess. Olivia is our princess. It is known now as Olivia Addison.

Our first!


Since my good friend Cristina decided to do a blog about her family, I decided to do one as well. I thought it would be a great way to keep everyone updated about our lives and about our growing little girl. New news about Olivia is that she's smiling all the time! It's so adorable to see. She's on the verge of laughing but she's so confused by her emotions that it scares her a little and she starts to cry. At her last doctors visit she weighed 11 lbs and was 22.75 inches. She's growing so much! The other amazing news is that she is starting to sleep through the night! I had no idea just how lucky I was until talking to other moms who can't get their children to sleep more than 2 or 4 hours straight! I thank my lucky stars every day that God sent me an angel, in more ways than one!! Our beautiful little girl is doing great and we're so excited for all the new things she's going to start doing and learning.
