Pool Time

July 3, 2010

I think I like it!

Jumping in the deep end!!

Jumping off the side

Going down the slide

Grandpa Bob had us over for a cook out, fireworks, and to go swimming. We had a blast. Karissa was super brave, she jumped in off the side of the pool, she went down the slide for the first time ever, and she jumped in the deep end with daddy. She wasn't so sure about going under the water but she didn't grumble too much. She is becoming more of a water rat every time we go. Olivia was able to go in the pool for the very first time. She has been sleeping every other time we have gone but today she was wide awake so in she went. She actually liked it until the hunger got the best of her!

Life's A Beach

Evie, Megan, Karissa, and Olivia

Wednesday June 30, 2010

Karissa, Olivia, and I went to the beach with our friends Anne, Megan, and Evie. We had so much fun! It was a gorgeous day, full sun, nice breeze, and not 90'!! Karissa had a blast, the beach is a giant sand box. Olivia slept almost the entire time but woke up for some pictures before we left. We had so much fun and hopefully we can go again soon!

2 Months

Olivia is 2 months old already! I can't believe that it's been 2 months, it's gone so fast and yet it seems like she has been here forever. She is growing well and is weighing in at 10 lbs 14 oz and 23.5 inches long. She is a whole pound less than what Karissa was at 2 months! She's also going to be tall and skinny just like daddy! She is still wearing her newborn clothes, although she does where the 3 months summer stuff it's just a bit big yet. She is wearing size 1 diapers and newborn shoes. She is sleeping about 6 hours at night, some are better than others. She is staying awake more during the day. She is super happy, she smiles all the time and is starting to 'talk' too!! She is just too cute and is becoming lots of fun! Karissa is still in love with her. She is a great big sister! We are all totally in love!

Beautiful Girl

My friend Sarah sent Olivia a head band that she made, so I of course had to take pictures. I think a few of them are really cute! I just love this little girl so much!

First Smiles

Olivia has started to smile a little bit. Yesterday she was very smiley and I was able to get a couple of them on the camera. They aren't the best pictures but they are still cute to me!

Freedom

So I have found my freedom...a double stroller!! My friend is letting my borrow one of her many double strollers and I am loving it! I now take the girls for a walk everyday and they are loving it too!

My Helper

Karissa thought that she would help me wash my car. Little did I know that she would steal all the brushes and wash her bike and push toy. She also helped wash the car but only the parts that had been washed and rinsed already! She had tons of fun playing with the bubbles...guess that means I should wash my car more often!

The Pool

My Bathing Beauties

her beach ball couldn't be wet!

May 27, 2010

I got Karissa's pool out for her seeing it had been so warm outside. Of course I filled it with the hose and figured I would let it warm up that afternoon. Well Karissa didn't want to let it warm up she jumped right in and loved it! Buddie also like it because it's a giant water dish! Olivia wasn't quite as thrilled with wearing we swim suit, oh well.

I Love My Bumbo

Big Girl

Talking to big sister

Sitting like Olivia So maybe her head gets a little bit heavy!

She was happily sitting in her seat then I looked again and she was asleep, it was too hard of work to sit up!

The bumbo box says 3months and up....who says you need to wait that long? Olivia is in love with her bumbo already...yes she's 5 weeks old! What can I say she has wonderful head control like her big sister did. Karissa also likes to sit in the bumbo seat, I'm shocked she still fits. She calls it her potty...silly kid!
