Sick Baby Update

 So Olivia is doing so well and sometimes we as in all of us forget that she is till a Micro Preemie. She started getting a little cold before our family reunion and the doctors said it was nothing. So we blew it off. She sorta just stayed the same and than she got real sick. BOOOO! But no worries she is doing a lot better. 
 Watching the Olympics!
 Taking a little sleep with Uncle Tyler. Let me tell you this girl really likes her uncle Tyler. He drives a motorcycle and when she hears that she looks at the door and waits for him, its dang cute.
 Didn't know Tay got this picture! Mom and Olivia.
 Yup oxygen! My mom came down to help us out a bit and by Saturday we knew something was up. We checked her O2's and they were way low. We put her oxygen on and on Sunday took her to the NICU. Luckily Dr. C was there and took a look at her. These people keep amazing me, they are so wonderful. She got some prescriptions and now she is feeling better. She has really weak lungs and they do really well if she is not sick but if anything attacks them or gets in them they really make it hard for her.
 This little one is so in-tune, she didn't even pull her oxygen off until the other day and I hooked her up to her pulse-ox machine and she was just fine. She knew when she needed it and when she didn't.
 Getting some of her medicine. What a good girl.
 We found her favorite blanket and she was excited to sleep I guess. She pulled that blanket right over her head and went to sleep.
 She looks so little sitting on the bed, and yes the bed is in my living room. It fits better :). Actually our room was too small for Olivia's crib and she grew out of her side sleeper crib so we took the couch to the new house and put our bed in the living room so Olivia could sleep on her crib mattress.
 Love that girl!
 She has some sweet sleeping positions now that she can move a little more.

There she is today! She's cute and great and loud and energetic! I love her so very much!!!!
There we are updated and hopefully I will not get so behind! :) I hear the whimper of a waking up child, so until we meet again friends love you all.

7/28/2012 11 MONTHS

 Holy cow I can't believe this little one is 11 months, it almost makes me cry for several reasons. She is so dang cute and just keeps getting cuter!

 That's not her cutest face, but you know this is life. She's lets say opinionated.
Very interested in that box. The whole moving thing is sorta making her uneasy. Half of our things are in the old house and half at the new so I think it might weird her out.

Be prepared for the biggest birthday celebration for little miss. September 1st at our new house! Mark your calendar everyone is invited!

The NEW House!!!!!!!!!!

We are embarking on a new adventure and it has been very much stressful I can feel that it's going to be worth it. I can see the light at the end of this tunnel and it's good. We are moving and retiring from managing apartments. We have put over 2 years in and I am ready to be a mom and not worry about 5 million people all the time. So, we found a place in our ward and it's still close enough that Tay can walk to both jobs.
This will be the MOM CAVE aka the office.
This is the living room, it's nice and big and Olivia already loves it.
Laundry room,with a new washer and dryer! The laundry room is really big, you don't see it all in the picture, but it is.
My new big yellow kitchen! Love it.
Our bedroom, Olivia is going to have that nook and we get the other side. :)
Practicing her sitting!

Oops! Still needs some practice.

Random Pictures from July

 Aden and Olivia are best buds. I can imagine them hanging out a lot when they get older.
 That's Aden helping the guys put some sod in. He's working away.
 Olivia is CRAZY! But, what do you expect from a child with the parents she's got. :)
 These are some friends from our ward the will be the NEW MANAGERS! :) We are so excited for us and them.
 We got to go see the Carling's in July. Hannah and Olivia are so CUTE!

 There's that wonderful Brenda! Sure do love her.
We got together for the Ren Fest and had dinner for Caleb's birthday. What a FUN day. Love hanging out with my besties!

Olivia's First 4th of July

 Tayce had to work on the 4th of July, so we found Jess & Lindy and their family and watched the parade.
 M'Kala wasn't there, but the boys were and it was fun to be at the parade with them. Ethan got a rubber bracelet and was pretend shooting it. It was pretty cute.
 There are the boys and the neighbor girl waiting for candy!
 Aden would come and show me is spoils each time.
 Olivia enjoyed being outside and loved being with Aunt Lindy!
 Ethan ran away a bit, he went to follow his dad and started down the road without any of us knowing. It was a scare, but Lindy found him and I found Aden.
 My sweet baby girl. What a darling girl she is. LOVE her so much. That cute dress she is wearing is from our good friend LaCee. Thank you LaCee we love it!
 Had ourselves a little photo shoot.

 Ethan being crazy.
 These boys love Olivia!





Thank you Jess and Lindy for inviting us to have a great 4th. We sure do love you all!

10 MONTHS (June 28)

 Sorry we are so behind, it's been a bit crazy around here and yesterday we moved a desk and the computer into the kitchen where the table used to be, it's so much easier to get to my computer!
 In June she started to sit up a little, she's still not a pro, but getting better each day.
Love those bright eyes, I can't believe she is almost ONE!

JUNE: Olivia the Pro Camper

 The end of June we took Riley and Tyler camping in Logan, it was Olivia's first camping trip and she did amazing. I actually have thought about taking her camping again because she sleeps through the nights and didn't hardly puke. That doesn't happen at home. :)
Above is Riley fishing with his homemade fishing pole, he didn't catch anything, but a gold star for trying. What he did do though is catch a fish with Colby's pole. Colby and Tanzi came and visited and Colby taught Ry how to fly fish, he's a natural.
 Here are the boys sleeping away.
 The first morning miss Olivia and I got up ans sat with Dad. She like the fire.
 She loved that she got to be outside all day. She looks so proud sitting there next to dad in her own seat!
 New find this weekend, hat rims. That can't taste good Olivia.
 Little family picture, it was so beautiful where we went (up Logan Canyon).
 We love Riley. We miss him and love when he comes to see us.
 This is Tyler and one of Tayce and I's nephews. Cutest picture ever.
There is my Tay! I sure do love him and I am glad after 4 years of marriage I finally got to go camping and you know what I loved it. We decided we would make it a family tradition to go every summer.
