Olivia Ranae Gallery

Alrighty, it's high time that I post a few pictures of the Olivia. She's a sweet little baby that still doesn't know how to be sad. When she wakes up hungry in the middle of the night she squeaks instead of crying. If it weren't for Sara's ability to hear dust mites during the night, Olivia's wiggles would go unheard, and she'd starve to death. This little video shows how she spends most of her awake time:



Sara took some pictures of my Olivia and I by the window. She's all artistic and she knows that the best time to take a picture is dusk or dawn. Time in the hospital sorta melts into one big red-eyed pool, so I don't remember if this was a.m. or p.m., but Sara was proven correct, because I think this picture is awesome.
Here's our little family magnified to 4. I think we all look pretty good together, and we've decided to keep Olivia around since she fits in pretty well.

Here's one last picture of our newly-promoted Big Sister. Aside from the occasional accidental newborn couch tackles, Zoe is very good at being sweet with the new baby. She's a big fan of holding Olivia and tells everyone that she's a big sister to a little girl named Steve. Yep, Steve. We were hoping that Zoe would ditch the Steve calling when she saw the baby's real name was Olivia, but we were wrong. Thus, a nickname was born with the newborn. Part of me sorta hopes it sticks forever.
