Ooops! One month blew right by without an update on our littlest love, so we will do a 6 week post:)
Olivia Rae is such a joy! Overall she is VERY happy and content most of the time. Her arch rival goes by the name of Hiccups and visits way more often than with Lizzie or Lainie, which is interesting, because she had them most often in utero as well. Liv has the eating thing mastered (every 3 hours), and it is obvious by her weight. She was 10lb 6oz and 22.5 inches at 5 weeks, which puts her in the 85th and 95th percentile respectively. As for sleep, we are getting there... She has finally capitulated and accepted sleeping in the pack and play during the night, usually just for 3-4 hour stretches, but just last night she went for 5 hours:) During the day, her naps are often on the go or in the swing or bouncy seat. We are hoping to settle into a better schedule after the first of the year, but for now, I am very thankful for how flexible and laid back Olivia has been!
Olivia LOVES Lizzie and Lainie! Lizzie is the master at getting her to smile:) Both big girls are HUGE helpers, so I rarely have to pick out clothes or throw away diapers. It warms my heart to see them loving on their baby sister!!!
Liv road tripped to Kansas at two weeks and was a champ in the car! She was the star of several Thanksgiving celebrations and has already partied hard for Christmas at multiple functions!
