Olivia: Five Months Old

My beautiful girl,

    You are F I V E months old today. That means you are one month away from your half birthday, and I don't know how that's possible. You are such a sweet and loving baby. You love when I hold you {what's new?} and enjoy grabbing onto my hair and trying to eat it. My favorite thing you do is when you try to suck on my cheeks. Usually it's when your hungry, but it is just the sweetest. Everyone who has seen you do it thinks its just precious. I love you so much sweet girl and enjoy every day, minute, and second that we share together. 

XOXO,

Mommy

Olivia Lately

   Olivia has had the best start to the year. She has been the only one who has stayed healthy while we were all sick. Must be that good milk I'm giving her! ;) She got to see her first snowflakes on January 2. It was only for a few minutes and they melted before they hit the ground, but hey, it was snow! She has also reached a couple milestones: 1. She can wear hair clips, 2. She has started rolling over from tummy to back! Here are her pictures to summarize the beginning of the year for her.

Connor Lately

     Connor has had a pretty rough start to the year. He ended it with strep, and started it with strep again! He has also had the flu. There have been a few nice days where he enjoyed playing outside, going on adventure walks, and riding his bike. Since break, he hasn't wanted to go back to school. He cries every morning, and I feel horrible taking him. His teacher has been really understanding and keeps me updated throughout the day. Here are just a few pictures to summarize the first few weeks of 2018 for him.

      If you have read Connor's CONNORisms before, then you know he says some pretty funny and smart things. 2017 was no excpetion. Here is my list of some of the funny things he has said from last year. Hope you get a laugh out of them, I know I do every time I read them!

New Year's Eve

    I can't believe we are already 22 days into 2018! Time is flying by and I am 22 days behind in blogging. I need to get caught up, so today is the day. 

     Our New Years Eve was spent at my parents house surrounded by friends and family. It was perfect, and I probably put on five more pounds because all I did was eat. We played mexican train, played with sparklers, and  enjoyed one anothers company. Once the clock struck midnight, we were pretty much all ready for bed. My how life has changed once you have kids. Haha! Enjoy the pictures below from our day!

2017 was a good year for us!
