You're here!!!!






Olivia Grace, you arrived with much fanfare! A VERY dramatic entrance for such an amazing little person. I'm not going to go into the details; the only thing that matters is that you didn't seem to notice all the hubbub that was happening outside. You maintained a calm, cool attitude for an entire 36 hours and made your grand entrance at 9:12 pm on July 13, 2012 weighing in at 6 lbs 8 oz and 18.25 inches long.
The last 4 days have been spent learning quite a few basics about you:
1. You LOVE being swaddled! Unless you are lying on someone's chest, then you prefer skin to skin.




2. You were able to lift your head within 12 hours! Already so strong!
3. You were born with superior ninja skills! You have already figured out how to escape a swaddle that is not perfectly folded AND you rolled yourself over within 5 minutes (once)
4. Your first trip in the car and in public were met with that calm, cool attitude.




Ollie, I knew you were going to be special regardless. But, you have surpassed even my expectations. You are such a beautiful, perfect baby. You look just like your daddy and I cannot wait for every single day I get to spend with you. Everyone keeps saying how fast your life will go by, but I'm enjoying every single second so far and not thinking about what other people say.
I love you so much!
