8 Weeks Today

Olivia had her 2 month check up today. She is in the 90 percentile for her head circumference, 100 percentile for her length and off the charts for her weight. When the pediatrician met Ryan she understood right away where her size is coming from. (This was the first time the Dr. had met Ryan.)


She is pushing up on her arms when she is on her belly. The pediatrician informed us that this is typically a 4th month skill at the level she is able to do it and that we better be prepared for rolling and more scooting very soon.

My How Time Flies!

My last post said that we were getting ready for Olivia to take her first airplane ride. I am happy to report that she is a great traveler and had no problems with flying! We had a great visit with Grammy Deb and Papa Mike.

While Olivia and I were visiting Grammy and Papa, Daddy was in Mexico with our church on the youth's annual Amor trip. It was a very successful week. The completed the house that they were assigned, plus poured an additional slab. Daddy will be leading two day trips the weekend of April 28 and hopes to help make a dent in the 75 houses left unfinished this Spring due to cancellations and other situations.

The Saturday after we all returned home, we have joined the Myer side of the family in celebrating Great-Grandparents Janie and Jim's 60th wedding anniversary! A wonderful time of family and celebration.

Last Thursday she was 7 weeks old. According to our at home measurements she is 14lbs. and 23"...a very big girl indeed!

Happy Easter!
