Big Girls DO Cry

We took Olivia to her two month checkup last week. It's hard to believe she is already over two months old.
She weighed in at a whopping 12 lbs, 6 oz. and is 24 inches long! She is in the 95th percentile for her weight and length.
That pretty much explains why she is drinking 8 oz. bottles without even flinching; and would you believe that when she is finished with that, she usually cries for more.

Also at her visit Livy was given her vaccinations: four shots in the leg and one orally for the rotavirus and she did cry... but only for a few seconds. Right before the nurse gave her the first shot she looked up at us and said, "She IS going to cry, so be ready!" At that time, Livy pouted her bottom lip as if she knew what was coming. We figured she probably just cried because of the initial pinching feeling because she was out like a light soon after the nurse was finished. What a good girl!


What a big girl!

Gama's Christmas

On Saturday we took a road trip to Gama's house! Gama is Livy's Great Grandmother. We had a fun time eating delicious food, opening presents and having lots of laughs with the family. Livy slept a good bit of the time but when she was awake, she enjoyed being held and making everyone laugh with her infectious smile.

Next week we leave for North Carolina! We are going to meet up with family and friends and attend Johnny's graduation ceremony. So, pictures of Dr. John R. Samuels Jr. will be coming soon!

In the meantime, here are some pictures of our early Christmas celebration as well as some other pictures I couldn't resist taking...

Success!!

Our road trip went very well. Olivia slept the entire trip over and almost the entire trip back. The traffic jams made our trip back quite a bit longer than expected. We find she is happiest when the car is moving.

The first morning we all got up and went for a walk in the chilly weather. Yes, it even gets a little cold in South Florida:) The rest of the time was spent cooking, baking, hanging out with family and friends, wave-running on the lake, eating and sleeping (okay, not so much sleep).

Enjoy these pictures of our Thanksgiving adventure!
