Olivia Grace

Better late than never (Michael!)...As you can imagine we've been a little busy. =)

Olivia Grace joined our family on Thursday, January 27, 2011 at 10:05 a.m. via c-section. She weighed 8 pounds 6 ounces and was 18.5 inches, the exact same weight and length as big sister Kylie.

She has been a very easy baby. Right now pretty much all she does is eat and sleep. She is sleeping the majority of the night waking up once anywhere between 1 a.m.-3a.m., then waking up for the day at 6a.m. most days.

At her 5 week check-up she weighed 10 pounds and was 22", she is a very healthy eater and her weight is in the top 95% for her age.

Kylie LOVES Olivia. She frequently asks where her sister is, if she can hold her, and tell us that she wants to give her a kiss. She has far exceeded our expectations for her as a big sister.

We were fortunate to have Steven home with us for the first 2 weeks after Olivia was born. Once he went back to work it was an adjustment but we are doing pretty well on our own during the day. He also give me the weekends off and gets up with Olivia in the middle of the night to feed her, which definitely helps me recharge for the upcoming week.

Having 2 beautiful girls to take care of is much easier than I anticipated, hopefully I feel the same way as the months progress. =)
