Easter and 6 months old!

Olivia had a great first Easter! She was very interested in her Easter baskets (yes all FIVE of them!) She wanted to grab everything and eat all of the toys. She got a lot of new toys to play with and SOOOOOO many new outfits for spring!! I had a lot of fun watching her enjoy herself. She also got to get dressed up in her pretty dresses for all of the family visiting! I took SOO many pictures, it was really hard to pick just a few to put on here, but I did.
On Thursday she turned 6 months old!! She went to the doctor's today for her 6 month check up. She weighed 15 lbs 12 oz and was 26 3/4 in. long. Our girl is finally growing! We switched her off of the Nutramigen and back onto the regular Enfamil. Hopefully it will go okay. So far it has made her EXTREMELY gassy! lol. Dr. Kottke thought she was doing very good for her age and was surprised to hear that she was sitting up on her own already. The most exciting development of the last few days is that she is getting her first tooth!! I spotted a small white line last wednesday and it has now barely poked through the skin. I will try and get a picture when it finally decides to come all the way through!! Very exciting! And (knock on wood) teething hasnt been horrible....YET. The baby food is going well but she doesnt like fruit very well...believe it or not she prefers green vegetables, in particular peas. She cannot get enough of them! She can move up to 2nd foods as soon as we get rid of all the 1st foods we have at the house. Im glad it is finally spring becuase Olivia LOVES to be outside.

Coloring Easter Eggs

Today Emma, Olivia, and I went to Aunt Sara's to color easter eggs with Dylan and Noah. We had a good time, and the kids really liked it. They were all very excited. And believe it or not, out of 12 different colors, we only had 1 spill!! The boys had a lot of fun dropping the eggs in the colors. Sara was in charge of taking pictures and she got some really cool ones. (She is getting good at this picture taking!) Olivia was very interested in all of the different colors and wanted to grab all of the eggs so badly. There is a picture of her throwing a tantrum becuase Noah was holding an egg that she wanted! lol. And then I had to put a picture of the kids at the end becuase all three of them were feeding Olivia her bottle, it was soo cute!

Updates!

We have been soo busy the past few weeks trying to keep up with life, that I have slacked a bit on taking pics. But we did get some funny ones outside on a nice day, we put Jerry's wig on Liv just to see what she would look like as a blondie! lol. The following day we went to the Goodnough's for family birthdays. Olivia had a lot of fun with the Winnie the Pooh which was about ten times her size. Her and her cousin Jordan had a blast playing on it!

The biggest update as of lately is that Olivia can now SIT UP unsupported by herself!! She loves to sit up and play with all of her toys instead of laying down....and if she is laying down, she tries to sit herself up. She can almost get half of her back off of the ground these days. She also has learned to scoot a bit while she is on her belly....I hope this doesnt mean she will be crawling soon?!?!?

Olivia still LOVES her baby food. She gets Sweet potatoes, Squash, and the latest tonight was Peas. She loves the peas the most I think. This pic is of her shoving Mel's hand into her mouth. Mel just couldnt get the spoon to her mouth fast enough!! By the end of the feeding Mel, Olivia, and our living room were all covered in peas!

And here is just a cute pic of Aunt Emma and Olivia relaxing watching "their shows" in the morning! They sure do love one another already!
