Next baby??!


Ah, she has Casey's eyebrows!!! I saw this on a friends blog and thought I would give it a try. And YIKES!! Hopefully the next little Payne baby turns out a little more like Olivia. Yes, much cuter!!!

2 Month Checkup

12 lbs 1 oz
23 1/4 inches long
Olivia had her 2 month checkup yesterday. She is really 2 1/2 months old but thats OK. She did really good with her shots, she cried for just a minute and later she ran a little fever. It is crazy that we have only had her for 2 1/2 months. She has brought so much happiness to our family. Olivia is getting so fun. She is smiling and giggling a lot now and loves her hands. It is so fun to watch her grow everyday!!

Zzzzzzzzz...

Yes, it has happened! My daughter has been sleeping through the night!!! Whoo-hoo!!! For the past three nights I have been putting her to bed at 10:30ish and she is sleeping until 7 or 7:30!! It is so nice. I am not really used to sleeping all night now so I wake up at 4:00, then 5:00, then 6:00 and to my surprise, Olivia is still sleeping!! I think a big reason is because she has been sucking her fingers and it soothes her while she sleeps. Now hopefully I did not just jinx myself and she will be up all night tonight!!

Trip to Bear Lake

Last weekend we were FINALLY able to go to Bear Lake and stay with Casey's parents. Casey's Grandma had not seen Olivia yet so we really wanted to get down there. She was so happy for us to visit. It was so cute watching her hold Olivia and just love on her!!
Olivia also made her self right at home at her Grandma and Grandpa Payne's. She pooed not one, not two, but THREE outfits!! And we were only there one night! This is her morning explosion...
...and her happy reaction to it! She had poo all up her back and down her legs. She even got it in our bed so we had to wash the sheets!! And Olivia got to take a bath in Grandma's sink.
Grandma Julie with the sleeping pooping queen.
Dexter had a lot of fun in Bear Lake too. He loves being able to run all around their house. He especially liked Grandpa Kelly's chair. We got Olivia ready for church on Sunday I thought she looked so cute!! To me these pictures make her look so big!! Before I know it my little baby is going to be rolling over and then crawling!! We had so much fun, hopefully it doesn't take another 3 months before we are able to go down again!!

Tidbits

We have been having so much fun with Olivia. She is so dang cute and is such a happy baby. Here are some more pictures that we've taken. I don't know why I put her in this laundry basket but it was pretty cute! Olivia and Dexter

Olivia's cousin Amelia. She got a little nervous holding Olivia but luckily we got a picture.It was our two year anniversary on the 8th. Casey had school and work until 7 that night but we were able to go out to dinner to Applebees. After dinner, we both had to come home and do homework. Yes, we are exciting!! This is the only picture we took from our anniversary. I guess we have different priorities now!!
Olivia has found her hands and it is pretty cute. She occasionally sucks her thumb.

My maternity leave ends today and I am so sad to go back to work!! Luckily, my mom is able to watch Olivia when I go. We really lucked out, my dad watches her while I am at school and my mom when I go to work. I am not working too many hours but it is still more than I want. Someday hopefully I will get to stay home with my babies!! Got to get Casey through school first!
