These are a few of my favorite things...

Now that Olivia is getting a little bit bigger, she has definite opinions on what she does and does not like. Here are a few of her favorite things:

The Vibrating Chair.....we've added the "animal bar" to the top of it and she loves it so much. She is in heaven when she's sitting in the chair and looking at the animals. I just sit next to her and shake the monkey or dance to the music and she thinks its great! (PS - how cute are her baby legwarmers?!)



The Miracle Blanket....she is now big enough for this blanket and she loves it. She does not cry at all when we are swaddling her. And as soon as she gets all wrapped up with a paci in her mouth, she can barely keep her eyes open. (This is one of my favorites too!)


Tummy Time...she is getting so good at holding her head up! And now she will actually smile and make eye contact with you if you get down on the floor with her. She still can't go for very long before she gets tired, but she is getting stronger and stronger.



Activity mat....like the vibrating chair, Olivia is in love with the animals hanging from this mat.


Story time
....this one is mine and Matt's favorite too. Last week we started a nighttime routine of reading a poem or story before bed. Olivia loves it! She looks at the pages very intently. Her favorite book right now is Aloha Zoo...given to her by her favorite Hawaiians, Aunt Jennie and Uncle Lloyd. Its a cute book about all the animals at the zoo. When Matt reads it, he uses different voices.....

Some voices are happy.....


Some voices are silly (usually...."Uh oh aloha stinky smell!")


Some voices are scary


But the book always ends "with love, aunt jennie & uncle lloyd" (a great message to end the day on!)
