Olivia is 2 Months!

Our little one is getting so big!  Olivia still prefers to snuggle for naps and to be moving (don't you dare sit down if you're holding her!).  She sneezes in twos.  She smiles a lot now - and crinkles her sweet little nose.  She LOVES her daddy.  She's a great eater.  And she's so stinking cute.  Here are a few of her 2 month photos...

those blue eyes just kill me!
At her 2 month appointment, here were her stats:

Height: 21.5 in (11%)
Weight: 9 lb, 13 oz (13%)
Head: 37.8 cm (34%)

She's even smaller than Kate was, which is hard to imagine, and we love her so very much.

sisters

Whether she likes it or not, Olivia gets lots of love from her big sister.  I'm pretty sure that's the reason we all keep passing colds around in our family, but it's still cute.  When we first brought Livvy home, Kate asked to hold her all the time.  She only ever wanted to hold her for about 30 seconds, and then she was ready to pass her off.  She doesn't really ask to hold her anymore, but she does try to share her toys with her and likes to talk to her a lot.  It's a little bit too much for Olivia at times, but it's so sweet.

butterflies!

One of our favorite things about having a membership to Frederick Meijer Gardens is the spring butterflies.  We took Kate last year and she loved it.  She was a little more hesitant this year - she got nervous whenever the butterflies came close to her, but she still wanted to keep going back over and over again.  We've been to FMG to see them three times now:) First we went with my mom on Grandma Friday.  Then we went with daddy.  Then we went with Grandma Pridgeon when she came up to help me with the girls for a few days.  So much fun.  I'm excited for the weather to warm up a little bit more so we can go enjoy the outdoor gardens too!
