TODAY AT 64 DAYS OLD SHE LEFT HER ROOM FOR HER FIRST OUT OF ROOM ADVENTURE!
Getting ready to leave her room. RT M got her an oxygen tank and RT MJ got it ready so we could go for a stroll!!!
Outside her room!
She's excited!
Getting ready to go out the door!
Right to Dr. Ridout! He gave her a Snickers and then decided she should go OUTSIDE!
Olivia and Dr. Ridout
Kisses for my baby!
Cute little thing.
On our way outside!
In labor and delivery showing her off!
The outside pictures will come later. My camera died right when we got to the doors, so Dr. Ridout and Nurst M took pictures for me. It was so great. I also have to mention Jeannette! She helped make it all possible and it was wonderful. We got to go on an adventure and it was great. What a wonderful day. Happy Halloween Baby Olivia and thank you NICU staff we love you.
If life and its rushed pace and many stresses have made it difficult for you to feel like rejoicing, then perhaps now is a good time to refocus on what matters most.

Part 1 of the BEST HALLOWEEN Ever!
PICTURE OVERLOAD! I hope you are ready for pictures because there is A LOT! Get ready for the best Halloween ever!
"Hey Mama, thanks for letting me be naked!" Nurse M decided we needed to have a moment with no diaper! She loved it!
Earlier this morning she wore her pumpkin hat, until she woke up for her photo shoot.
"Hey give me back my binki!" Nurse M took her binki and she just followed it. It was so cute.
Naked photo shoot!!!! Look how cute.
She was so hungry! She was crawling away! :)
She wanted her food! And it was good we waited because she nursed really well.
My sweet baby!
She loves that binki!
This is a framer! :)

My beautiful baby girl!
What a photo shoot. Thank you Nurse M, Nurse B and Nurse
SUPER OLIVIA! Her and her triplet friends were all super heros! They were all so cute!
Even super heros need a binki once in awhile.
She loves her tutu. So does the whole unit. She is so very loved.
Ready for my jammies. She's wearing the PJ's that Grandma Nae bought her and she's adorable in them.
Look how big I am! 4 POUNDS 16 INCHES! She's huge!
CHUBBY cheeks!

Sorry for the Delay
LOTS OF PICTURES BELOW... ENJOY
Baby Shower #2 at Aunt Laura's House
Aunt Laura and my Mom making ribbon sandwiches for the shower! They were so cool. The shower was great and I am so thankful for my aunt and cousin and mom who helped put it together, they are the best. Love you girls.
That's the bread Aunt Laura is cutting. It was pink, yellow, green and orange bread! Super sweet.
There is Steph!
The shower was fun and I had a lot of family and friends come. The greatest surprise is when my Aunt Joan from Oregon showed up! It was a wonderful surprise and I am so grateful that she would come all the way out to Utah to be at the shower. Thank you Aunt Joan, LOVE YOU! OH, and I guess I should give my mom so credit, she kept it a secret. Good job mom!
OLIVIA
This pose is like the one I took a few weeks ago, but now she is bigger!
Numbers for October 26, 2011 (HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDPA ROY)
3 1/2 Pounds
15 1/8 Inches
High Flow of 3!
Non-nutrative nursing 2 times a day (as of this evening she can nurse normal twice a day)
Approximately 30 calories of food every 3 hours (28 mL)
Cuddling with Dad! a
She must have been having a good dream because she is pulling a cute face there. The blanket she has is her tag blanket from Ashley! She loves it so much and sleeps with it everyday. Love you Ash!
Laying with Mom today! She's getting so big.
What a sweet girl. You can she her little bald spot!
Her hand is bigger then my ring!
She loves laying with her Dad and she loves getting out of her blankets! She's keeping her body temperature up though. Before we know it she will be in an open crib.
She was so pooped after she nursed today. She nursed on booth sides for almost 10 minutes a side! That is amazing for a baby her size. Lactation specialist (KA) was so happy. She's a great help and has been so supportive through all of this pumping a waiting stuff.
Totally sleeping on her Mom! (That's me!)
That hair band is made by me! It matches her...
TUTU! Also made by me, with the help of HUC S!
It's part of her Halloween costume, you'll have to wait and see! :)
These are two of my favorite people right here. What a lucky girl I am to get both of them! They are wonderful. Love you both so much.Thank you all for following this blog and caring so much about us. Your prayers mean more to us then we can describe. I can't believe we are starting the end of our journey here at the NICU. Time has flown by and at the same time I feel like I've been here for ever. Someone asked us the other day if we lived her and it took me a second to respond. Oh, dear Cedar City I still love you even if you snow in October. :) Well friends and family I'm gonna go feed my baby! Love you all.

Pictures of Miss Olivia
Taking a little nap with dad. Tayce holds her at night and I hold her in the morning. I can't wait until I get to pick her up whenever I want too.
She's getting so big.
PUMPKIN HAT
Precious girl
Binki baby!
The first article of clothing she wore was this bib!
There she is! We keep trying to see if she looks like either of us. She had Tayce's eyes we think.
Olivia is doing well. She is growing and doing great. The doctors and nurses are very happy with her success. She's even been pooping without help the last few days. Her feeding is now 25 mL over an hour instead of 90 minutes and she's handling it well. The pressure on her high flow is at a 4! and so far so good. She's just decided to be a big girl. We love her so much and are so excited to be on this journey with her. Love you all, have a great weekend!
