First Couple of Weeks.....

Proud Big Sister!!!!

As Pete and I were driving Olivia home from the hospital, I couldn't help but to think "are we ready to be parents of a newborn again???". Our little Olivia had big shoes to fill since Bella was such a easy baby but we were ready for the challenge. After having tons of family and friends visiting to see our new addition, the real challenge began.....caring for a newborn while making sure Bella wasn't left out!!!
Thank goodness Bella is such a wonderful little girl and Pete took care of my every need because without those two, I would have gone BONKERS!!!
Our little Olivia was quite the challenge for the first couple of weeks....she just didn't know what she wanted. Pete kept saying "she's just not happy....should we take her to the doctor??". I assured him that every baby is different and Olivia was no exception. I also told him that Olivia is happy she's just 'high maintenance' (our little girl knows what she wants already...that's all)!!!
After the first couple of weeks of sleep deprivation and fussiness, it has been down hill from there!! Does Olivia still have her moments (like her witching hours of 11:30pm to 2:00am).....SURE but that comes with the territory, for the most part Olivia is PERFECT plus she sleeps through the night now, so she's really PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!

Pete in amazement that he put Olivia to sleep!!!!

Olivia watching the Laker game with Pete.....she really was staring at the tv!!!!
