Merry Christmas!

Olivia enjoyed her 1st Christmas. Her favorite gift is a little farm that has a horse, cow and chicken...It was a gift from Grandpa and Grammy. She doesn't yet understand how to make the various things spin and sing, but she DOES like chewing on the animals. She's also having fun with her cousins. Cadence makes faces and growls at her (which Liv finds quite hysterical), Addison pushes buttons on toys and gets them to light up, and Jaidyn has lots and lots of hair for Liv to pull! We're pretty sure this is Olivia's favorite Christmas ever!!! :)

Clippies and Leopard-Print!

Olivia is stylin' today with her hair clippy and leopard-print sweatsuit! If only it would stop snowing! She's all dressed-up with nowhere to go...

Bounce, Bounce, Fun!

Olivia loves her bounce/play station. Notice the slight pause to fill her diaper;) Also, Olivia (her mom & dad too) want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

Baby It's Cold Outside!

It started snowing last weekend here in Bend and it hasn't stopped! Unfortunately, the high temperature has only been in the single digits, so Liv has not had the chance to get out and play in the white stuff. She's keeping busy inside, though, rolling around and jumping in her exersaucer. It's off to Aunt Sam's next week for Christmas. Cousin Cadence is going to help all the little girls (cousins Addison and Jaidyn, and Liv) decorate cookies for Santa!

1st Civil War Game!

Despite being a fierce 'Beaver Believer', Olivia did NOT enjoy her first Civil War Game. Mommy didn't label the individual pictures, but it's pretty obvious what Liv's saying..."What?! ANOTHER interception?" and, "Oh no, now James Rogers is hurt, too?" Mom also included the pic of her exclaiming, "Seriously, I can play better defense than that!!!"

I love my new high chair from Grammy Nancy & Grandpa Johnny:)

This new stroller from Grandma Judi and Papa is very nice!

Yes, I can hold my bottle...any more brain busters?

Halloween!!!

Olivia celebrated her first Halloween...in bed! She was tucked in and sound asleep before the first trick-or-treaters came by. Her cousin, Nat Nat, was here for the weekend. She was dressed-up as a cute, little ladybug. Auntie bought Olivia a coordinating ladybug sleeper...and the day AFTER Halloween, we dressed the girls up and snapped some pictures.

Rockin' and ROLLIN'

Olivia rolled over on Saturday! Her babysitter has been making her do "tummy-time" and she's alot more tolerant of being on her tummy. Imagine Mommy and Daddy's surprise when Liv rolled from her tummy to her back...especially since she was on a raised surface and she came quite close to rolling off! She's done it a number of times now, and we even got it on video. She also got to meet her "Pseudo Aunt and Uncle", Piper and Cade, the other night.

Pumpkin Patch!

Olivia went to a pumpkin patch today! She seemed to enjoy herself...and her mommy and daddy helped her pick-out the perfect pumpkin. It has a curly-q stem that resembles her own crazy hair quite well! She wore her "Daddy's Little Pumpkin" onesie and her orange-and-black pants...she made the cutest little boy! Hee, hee!

Fabulous FIVE!

Olivia is 5 months...and an absolute joy! She eats oatmeal and lots and lots of veggies. Much to everyone's amazement, she goes to sleep at 5:30 pm and sleeps until the next morning...We get the feeling that her Aunt Sam is a little jealous! :) A couple of weeks ago, she traveled to Portland and met her "Great Papa" (her mom's Grandpa Walker). The following weekend she traveled to Aunt Sam's to celebrate her cousin, Addison's, 1st birthday. LAST weekend, Gramma and Papa came over and took care of her while Mommy was on-call and Daddy went to a conference...And next up, Cousin Nat Nat is coming over for Halloween.
