This first video is what everyone got to see while I was getting put back together. Fair warning, it's a little long. Ya know, I think one of the few bad things about a c-section is not getting to hold your youngin right when she's born. Instead, you get to lay there and watch your loved one walk away with her. :) I guess it works out, because I get to be there for so many firsts, it makes up for it a little bit.
I suppose I should apologize to Olivia for this next video. I should also explain, for some reason or another we found it hilarious when she pooped. We would sit a watch and laugh till we cried, and so did everyone else who got the opportunity to see it. She would make the cutest grunting noises and turn all red in the face. I only wish I had a video of her doing it when she was a little older, I swear I would have won $10,000 on AFV. The older she got the harder she'd grunt and the redder she'd get. In this video she is only 2 months old, I hope you get a little chuckle out of it. God knows we did!
Now on the last video for this post. Yesterday, Miss Olivia started to crawl. We've been thinking for sometime that she would walk first, because she has already been standing up while holding onto someone or something. Like usual we were wrong with our prediction. It took her a good month of rocking back and forth, but she finally got it. It's crazy how much she has improved in just one day. Yesterday, it was just a foot or two that you see in the video, today she crawled across the entire living room! Like I said in an earlier post, these days are just going by way too fast.
Throughout my entire pregnancy, I wondered to myself day after day what being a mother would be like. Would I be a good mother? How would my life change? What would those first months be like? The questions went on and on. I can say without any doubt, everything I imagined came out quite a bit different. Being a mother is one of the greatest and toughest things I have ever done in life. I absolutely love it. I love watching her grow, learn, and change week after week. I think it is going a bit too fast, she's going to be grown up before I know it.
Miss Olivia was 5 and a half months old in this shot. We just got that new handy dandy camera and I guess the flash is a little much.
Olivia absolutely loves her jumper! In the first picture Teva Lou is making her laugh histerically. I don't know what it is about Miss Teva but when she's in the room Olivia can't take her eyes off her. About her love for the jumper, no kidding, we had to buy one to transport to my mother's house because she would through a fit not having one to play in. You're wondering "How in the world could I know that?" Well, if you were holding her she would try her best to jump up and down and then cry when she wasn't getting as much air as in the jumper. I watched some videos on youtube of 6 month olds jumping in their Jumperoo's and Olivia put them to shame. :)
