Sorry we haven't posted in a month or so. We got behind and realized we hadn't posted any pictures. Well, it is summer, but hopefully we'll try to post at least once every week or two. Oh well, life goes on. Here area a few pictures from the past month.
Olivia is really starting some fun movements. She is starting to grab for toys and can turn over from her stomach to her back, but not the other way as of yet. She's close though and with the way she kicks, she'll launch on over to the other side and wonder what happened.
Andrew and Ezra in our 'pool'. Ezra absolutely loves playing with his cousins. He loves to get rowdy with them and run and chase and play and take toys from each other. We are working on teaching him to share and not having a bad heart/attitude if someone else is playing with the toy he of course wants to play with.
Olivia with her little hat to keep the sun out of her eyes!Wow, I'm pooped, mom.
Here's a better picture of Olivia. She has a wonderful smile. Heidi says, "My favorite time's with Olivia are early in the morning for her first feed and at night for her last feed. In the mornings, Olivia is usually awake by the time I come to feed her, sometime between 6:30 and 7:00am. Olivia gets a giant smile and kicks her feet in excitement because she knows it is breakfast time. At night, we wake her up about 9 or 9:15pm for her last feed, and picking her up from her basonet is wonderful. She is most always still sleeping and has the sweetest most innocent face. I just love how she has her eyes closed and she's just sucking away slowly but surely. It usually takes changing her diaper and burping her to wake her up, even though now I want her to go to bed."
Ezra's first time in a lake or any body of water bigger than a 3 ft. by 3 ft. pool which he has come to love and each day says, 'Wannano (WHAD -NA- NO)' which from our understanding refers to water he can play in. It is kind of confusing try to pick up on his phrases, but we are learning and he is picking things up we say very quickly.

Olivia loves being in Great Grandma's arms
Brother and sister together. It has been fun to watch how Ezra has really taken to a love for Olivia. When he gets up in the morning, he repeats all of the names of people he knows...mommy, daddy, papa, nana, Olivia (which he pronounces A-VI-VA-VA). He loves to get close to her and look into her eyes with his. We recently started to let him touch her toes and hands, but quickly learned that wasn't going to work for very long. One morning Heidi turned away for about 30 seconds only to find Ezra practically laying on top of her. He was giggling away and she started to cry. Even though she is growing, about 10 1/2 lbs currently...having a 27 lb. brother on top of your stomach doesn't feel too good.
