She's daddy's girl!

It's never too late to start practicing! She had a blast helping daddy out with the drums on Rockband.

This picture is a little older, but I love the way she's kicking back and enjoying while dad plays the guitar. I think she could sit there and listen to him forever.

What can I say about this one? We have another gamer in the family. ;)

She's so peaceful on daddy's lap.

Can you believe how big she's getting? Our little girl is already 8 months old and ready to be on the move. She hasn't gotten the hang of crawling yet, but she does a lot of scooting and twisting which usually ends up getting her around somewhat. Before long she will be making her way around the house with me on her heels trying to keep her out of trouble!

This is one of the few photos I was able to get while all three of the girls were sitting still long enough to take a picture. It looks like Olivia is invading Sophie's space here. :)

We sure love it when Aunt Jessie comes to visit! She brought Javi with her this day so it was particularly exciting!

Grandpa Jeff stopped by on his way home from work one day. Olivia loves grabbing his face! Isn't Grandpa lucky to have SO many girls?

Extra pics

This is Olivia's first trip to the "beach", which was actually the river bank. She loved it! We went with Jess, her roommate and roommate's mom along with their 5 dogs! It was a little crazy and we brought home a little more sand than we would've liked, but at least Aunt Jessie got this picture with her cell phone so we could document this first experience! Thanks Jess!

Playing with her BIG cousins!

Just hanging out

I love this one... I think she is the happiest when she's just in her diaper.

Tulip festival

We went to check out the tulips with Katie and the girls during the Tulip Festival. Since we went during the week it was actually quite relaxing and fun. There was practically no one else around! We only went to one farm but drove by some of the fields of tulips. I sometimes forget that amazing beauty is just minutes away from our house. I'm so thankful that my family gets to experience this part of God's beautiful creation firsthand!

This one was taken from Katie's car window. Actually turned out pretty good!

So this was me, trying to get a picture of us with chickens in the background. It didn't really work out, but they are there.... really.

more pictures!

Here are more pictures of Olivia. These are her at about 5 months old (within the last month).

On Easter Sunday... what a fun day! We had lunch at dad and mom's and loved watching the girls hunt for those eggs! I can't wait to see Olivia participate next year!

She agreed to be a model for me and show off the car seat covers I like to make. Ok, so she didn't have much say about it, but it looks like she doesn't mind. :)

We are just about ready to introduce solid foods, so we thought it'd be fun to practice sitting in her high-chair. We don't have a lack of straps, that's for sure!
