4 Months Already!

I have been pretty slack on the blog lately. I didn't realize how hard it is to get little things done with a baby. I can't believe that our Little Livie is 4 months old tomorrow! She is looking more and more like Daddy! We go today for her second round of immunizations. Livie amazes us more every day. She has been rolling over in her crib for about a month now. She likes to sleep on her stomach with her butt in the air. She loves when we read books and to play with her first baby doll. Her favorite books are Olivia (of course) and Puppy Love. We are having so much fun with her! I will post how the dr. visit goes!

Livie is here!!

I have been very slack on my blog since Livie was born. We are loving every minute of having her around. Life has definitely changed...but we absolutely love her! Livie was born January 15, 2010 and weighed 6 lbs 15 oz and was 20 1/2 inches long. She looks just like her daddy! Lucy is enjoying having a baby sister around and seems to think that she had the baby. I wanted to post some pics while I had a free second...hope you enjoy!

6 more days!!

I went to the dr. today for my 39 week check-up. I have finally dialated 1 cm...i know thats not much but at least its progress!! I cant believe there are only 6 days left until Livie's due date. But I am very ready!! Hopefully, she will come by Sunday...if not they are going to induce me next week. I have been "nesting" like crazy! I have run out of things to clean in my house...I know that I wont be able to say that again anytime soon! Now we are just playing the waiting game. Hopefully, the next time I post- they will be pictures of our little girl!!

Livie's Nursery is almost complete!

Livie's nursery is almost complete...I cant believe she will be here in 5 1/2 weeks! Thought I would share a pic of the nursery.

Livie's Baby Shower

My wonderful friends threw a beautiful baby shower for Livie and I in October. Everything was perfect!! I have the best friends ever!!! I wanted to post some pics from my shower for all to see!

Olivia's Nursery

Well, we finally got most of Livie's furniture ordered. All we have left to get is her Glider and some more nursery decor. I found these wall letters on etsy that a lady out of Charleston custom designs. I love them...she just did them for Sarah Jessica Parkers twin girls, so I had to order some for Livie. She is painting them to match her bedding. Here are some samples of her work:

Livie's Serena and Lilly Bedding:

And Livie's Young America Crib

Her dresser is the dresser/changing table on the left

I am looking forward to getting the nursery complete!!

Baby Olivia... 23 weeks and counting

We had our 23 week checkup today. Everything went well! They said Olivia sounds like a really happy girl in there..her heartbeat was in the 150's. From this point on Olivia gains around 6 oz. per week....she weighs more than a pound and a half right now and sports a crown-to-rump length of about eight and a half inches (standard letter size!). According to What to Expect, my email this week says:
Wondering what (and who) your baby will look like? If you had a baby cam, you'd almost be able to tell by now. That beautiful face (though still tiny) is almost fully formed.
I have my next appt. in 3 1/2 weeks where I will take my glucose screening....then after that I will have an appointment every 2 weeks until little Livie is born. I cant wait!

We got Olivia's baby shower invitations and they are sooooo cute!! I love them...I am going to have one framed for her! As far as the nursery, the paint is finally done (very pale pink) the crib is ordered (a white sleigh crib) and now we are in the process of finding a dresser. Its amazing to think Olivia will be here in 16 weeks!
