Halloween PSA: Eat Your Peas!!!

(This is the very cute horsey jacket Aunt Jane from Montana gave me.)

I saw my new Virginia doctor this week for my 2 month check up and my first round of vaccinations. I am not 12lbs and 23 inches. For those of you keeping up I've gained 4lbs and 2 inches since I arrived. Mommy was thankful to hear I can now go 4 hours between feedings. She immediately changed my schedule. She keeps talking about sleeping thru the night. I threw her a bone and went 6 hours on Thurs night.

Road Trip Part 2

After keeping up with a crazy schedule while is south Georgia mommy decided she finally needed to rest and get well. We headed to Grandpa's house where he and Grandma Julia spoiled me beyond repair. While in Peachtree City I also got to visit Uncle Golden Hands and Aunt Debbie (not pictured because mommy can't seem to keep up with me.) I also met my Great Grandma. She let me know that I should vote for Bush in the election. I had mommy write that down so I could remember.

Aunt Cate brought Alex and Sabrina down to visit with me.

Here I am with my new friend Tommy. He has the coolest toys I've ever seen. I can't wait to get them in my mouth. Mommy has never seen me smile as much as I did with Tommy around.

Our trip home was long for mommy. I got all caught up on my beauty sleep. On the way out of town I stopped by to see Aunt Krista (yes all digits are intact). I was passed around the eighth grade teachers like a piece of fresh meat. I loved every minute of it.

After 2 days 8 stops and no less than 4,000 diapers we finally returned home on Tuesday.

Road Trip Part 1: South Georgia

Mommy and I hit the open road on Oct 20th. Before we reached the North Carolina border I was already sporting my second outfit of the trip. Mommy learned an important lesson: Always have plastic bags handy. After 6 stops and 11 hours we reached Savannah on Monday night. Please note mommy and I both woke up with colds before we left.

On Tuesday I got to meet my Auntie Leticia. Unfortunately because mommy and I were sick we weren't able to visit with my 3 favorite girls! Next we met Grammy Melinda and Marsha at mommy's old work. Everyone was thoroughly impressed with my hair. I'm not sure why except daddy doesn't have so much.





Tuesday night I had my first college experience. I went to GA Southern to meet my Aunt Hannah and her roommate Roxy. I got to go in a girls apartment. Mommy kept saying this would be the only time that would happen. The girls took us to Locos so I could experience some college nightlife.




Our final stop on the South Georgia tour was with mommy's friend Adrianne in Hinesville, GA. She is the only person mommy allows to touch her hair which is a problem since we live 3 states away. All the ladies in the salon looked after me while mommy had a morning of beauty.

We left Hinesville and headed for Peachtree City.......

Road Trip

Mommy and I are setting out on the open road Monday. We are heading for GA. Our trip has been delayed twice due to Mommy's fears of traveling alone with me and Chompers. She finally decided to leave Chompy in Virginia. So Monday we are off. Wish us luck. We are going to see friends and family in Savannah, Columbus, Auburn and Atlanta. My grandpa is turning 61 next weekend so I'm hoping to get my hands on some cake.

I am going to be one well traveled baby. This is all practice for our trip on the airplane in November. We're going to Oklahoma to see Daddy.

Here's a picture of me in my puppy outfit. Mommy likes my puppy paws.

Baby in Motion

For those of you who don't know my daddy is in Ft. Sill, OK for the next 6 weeks. Mommy took some video of me today so he could watch me in action. Isn't technology great! I think the camera adds at least 6 ounces.

More New Faces and a Welcome Familiar One!!!

Mommy and I had a really exciting weekend. First, I got to meet Uncle Joe, Aunt Cate and my cousins Alex and Sabrina for the first time. They flew to Viriginia just to see me! Then we had a surprise visit from Daddy. He had to take 3 planes each way to get here. Since he went through so much effort to get here I threw Daddy and Mommy a bone and smiled for the first time. Mommy is not quite fast enough yet to get it on film but she's working on it. Here are some photos from our weekend.

Catching Up

Fresh out of the oven!!!
Mom and Dad think I have unusually long arms and legs! Daddy calls me an ape.
Tummy time with daddy. I'm working on my Beatles look.
My first hair washing/bath. Aunt Krista traumatized me with the first sponge bath and nail clipping. The top of my thumb is still growing back.

We Are finally in business!!

Starting this has been on my "to do" list for months but I think I've now got the hang of it. For all of you that haven't heard we finally got to meet our newest addition William Thomas Olver (Will) on August 27th. He kept us waiting for 26 hours but was definitely worth it. He weighed 7lbs 15 oz and was 21 in long. As of his 1 month check up he is 9lbs 13oz and 22 1/4 inches. God bless my sister for giving birth to a baby the same size as my 1 month old.
Just 2 weeks after he arrived we packed up and moved from Orlando to Yorktown, VA. Grandma Chris was kind enough to help us move and learn how to take care of Will. So far so good. I am going to attempt to maintain this sight so we can update our friends and family all over the country. Thanks to everyone for your love and prayers during this time.
