Week 2



Olivia has been with us for 2 weeks now! We learn more about her everyday.
Emma and Olivia are doing well and I am hoping will continue to spread their wings and get outside more often for walks.
Astro has also joined us after returning from vacation at grandma and grandpa Moore's house. Astro is very interested in Olivia and all of the little sounds she makes drives him crazy, you can see him thinking "let me at that kid, i just need to get in a few licks then everything will be ok!" He is slowly getting more used to the new family member in the house and I am sure in a few weeks we will be one happy family.

Hiccups!

Week One!





Olivia's first week has come and gone so quickly. We've been fortunate to have many visitors as well as a great group of friends and family who have been delivering dinners to us nightly. The Rollin clan made the first of many trips down to Santa Barbara and brought along aunt Pat and uncle Jim, I don't think Olivia spent even a moment out of someone's arms, she was a very happy baby. Emma was able to get outside for the first time and we went a short walk with Delia and her 2mo. old son Braedan.

Week 39




Hello dearest family and friends.



This week we are 39! That means that "Olive" is still growing and preparing for entrance into our world. Like we mentioned last week, at this point, the average baby weight can vary.... so we will keep you guessing or betting :) on how much she will weigh when she arrives.

As you can see, Emma is getting bigger by the moment but still we are just 30-40% effaced and waiting for "Olive" to drop and for dialation to occur. We are very excited to meet "Olive" and are just finishing our final "to do's" together before she arrives. At this point, we have picked a pediatrician, Dr. Margot Roseman -yeah- which happens to be a pediatrician in the same office that Kevin went to when he was a boy here in SB. :)

On the Astro front, we are proud to report that he did get his stitches out on Friday of last week and is doing great now!

So in a nutshell, just keep us in your thoughts and prayers and we will keep you posted.

Alas, we are truly blessed. Emma, Kevin, "Olive" and Astro
