Well it has been 2 years since my last post and life has changed in so many ways.
First, I graduated from nursing school and have been working as a Registered Nurse in the Emergency Department at Cook Children’s for over a year and a half now. My job has its challenges, but I am blessed to work with some pretty incredible people, taking care of some pretty incredible kids.
Then, we bought our first home! We have enjoyed decorating and really making this house our home. We have a lot we still want to do but are so in love with it!
Most importantly however, on December 9, 2010 at 7:48pm Jordan and I’s lives were forever changed when we welcomed this sweet bundle of joy:
Olivia Kate May. 8lbs 2oz. 19 1/2 inches.
We are more blessed than I could ever say. Being Olivia’s mom has given me more joy than I ever thought possible. I cannot imagine a life without her.
Olivia is now almost 8 month old and looks like this:
She is happy, loving, dainty, studious, intelligent, and oh so beautiful! She provides much entertainment for her doting audience and is an extremely busy girl unless she is sleeping ( which she loves to do…..thank goodness!) Her hands and feet are always moving!
Right now she is sitting ( she has since 4months), pulling up on whatever she can and beginning to cruise the furniture. She army crawls pretty well but would much rather be standing and walking ( holding onto our fingers). I’m convinced she will take off running before she masters crawling on all fours. She is eating baby food and is able to finger feed herself pretty good! Olivia’s laugh is infectious and brightens my day. She talks but not quite babbling yet. She loves books, babies, Sophie the Giraffe and many other toys. Loves bath time, hates getting her face cleaned after a meal.
Basically we are totally, completely in LOVE with this girl!
Our most recent family photo…..on the fourth of July.
My plan is to actually continue to update this blog with Olivia’s milestones, family updates, party planning, crafting, recipes, and all other things that I find interesting.
