Olivia - Week Seven
Mommy and Olivia enjoying each other as Daddy sets up the camera for a family photo. Isn\'t this dress cute?! My friend Amy Green sent it from Oregon.
Okay, so the dress swallows her up a bit still, but I had to put it on her. She\'ll grow into it.
In Little Rock, we stayed at Papa John and CeCe\'s house (Geo\'s parents) along with Uncle Justin and Aunt Stephanie (Geo\'s brother and his wife).
This is the first time Uncle Justin and Aunt Stephanie had met Olivia. Stephanie had been so anxious to see her! It was fun to spend the weekend with them.
It was fun to see Justin with a baby, too. Someday...
Perplexed as usual. She loves to study faces. I wonder what it\'s like for her to look at someone who looks similar to her dad, but who isn\'t her dad...?
Each couple in the house had their own baby, so to speak. John & Carolyn\'s baby is a little on the old side these days, poor Holly lost all her attention to Olivia and Maggie (Justin & Stephanie\'s dog).
While in Little Rock, we visited Geo\'s grandparents in their new apartment. Great Grandma and Papaw LOVED their time with Olivia and apparently talked about it for weeks.
Unfortunately Great Grandma is still in her brace from the car accident she and Carolyn were in on their way home from Nashville in November. Get well soon Grandma.
Papaw and Olivia. It was fun to see him be so silly with her, making funny noises and faces and making her smile.
The room was full of cameras, and since Olivia has seen cameras almost every day since she was born, she likes to look at them. Here, Geo is videotaping her close up.
The Lessel fam minus John and Carolyn. Well, I guess Grandma and Papaw are Simpsons.
Also while in Little Rock, Geoffrey\'s cousin Rachel and her husband Ken came to meet Olivia.
Notice Rachel\'s dimple on the cheek next to Olivia...when we first noticed Olivia\'s dimple in the hospital, we thought of Rachel.
It was fun for Ken and Rachel to see Olivia, but it was unfortunately a short visit since Olivia needed to go to bed for the night.
And the third baby of the house, Maggie, who belongs to Justin and Stephanie and is still a puppy. She was competing with Olivia for attention all weekend long. Three only-child babies in the house, oh boy!
CeCe, wearing her \"CC\" necklace with her first grandchild. She\'s so smitten with her!
Aunt Stephanie drew many smiles out of Olivia during the weekend. This is more of a grin. We\'re still working on getting a good smiling pic.
This one is somewhere between her grin and her smile.
Oh I love it when she holds her hand like this! And I love it when she looks at me like this. Aunt Stephanie got the goods! Olivia often holds her hands near her chin like this when she\'s eating.
It\'s a smile! What a pretty girl.
