3 Months




While we were out of town Mia turned three months old!! The past few months have been such a whirl wind. I can hardly believe how fast she has grown. She is such a happy baby. She loves looking at faces and smiles all the time. She is such a happy girl. She is definitely a daddy's girl too. Mia just found her toes, and it so adorable to watch her play with them. Who needs toys? She doesn't seem to like her car seat too much, but I can't blame her. It is already so hot here! She is getting up once during the night. As tired as I am, I really enjoy it. It's the only time that we have together just the two of us. Here are a few recent pics. Our "three month" picture isn't so great. We were not at home, it was very late, and the final LOST episode was on.

A Month of Birthdays

Olivia with her best buddy Aidan. She had fun at the party, but was a little afraid of Chuck.


This month Olivia went to four birthday parties! Chuck E Cheese with Aidan, Jumpin Jungle for Barrett's bday (sorry forgot the camera!), Little Gym for Jordan's birthday, and another bounce house with her friend Noah. What would we do without our daughter's busy social calendar? With all of the parties, Olivia keeps asking if her birthday is next. Last night she asked if we would have cake, and sing "happy birthday dear Olivia", and blow out candles. So the pressure is on to plan her party already!!

Take me to the Beach







Olivia has been asking us to go to the beach for the longest time. So, we backed up our swimsuits and sand buckets and took a road trip to Port Aransas. We stayed at the Port Royal resort, which happens to have THE BIGGEST pool in Texas. We actually ended up spending more time at the pool than the beach. Olivia loved the pool because in the shallowest area she could touch the bottom. There were lots of little girls for her to play with too. I heard her telling some of the other girls that she knew how to swim. Not quite! The beach was nice, but full of seaweed. We also spent the day at the Texas State Aquarium. Olivia loved the dolphin show, but she was a little afraid of the sharks. She kept asking us where the mermaids were:)
Mia was such a sweet girl during the trip. She looked so adorable in her bathing suit. She even got to take a dip in the pool. I think she really liked it!
