4 Weeks Old!

Where did the month of March go?!?! It seems like the past 4 weeks have completely flown by and its so hard to believe our little girl is 4 weeks old already. We have been settling in here and adjusting to being a family of 5. Stefan had paternity leave for 2 weeks which was a huge help and eased the transition back home. The past 2 weeks have been a learning experience at juggling and multi-tasking, but luckily we have had lots of support and help around. I am proud to say that I have even managed a few outings with all 3 kids - it definitely is an undertaking, but it is possible (I was that crazy lady at Target with the 2 week-old in the Bjorn, 1-year-old in the cart, and trying to corral her 3 1/2-year-old that kept wandering off!). We definitely have gotten some looks and more than one "you have your hands full!" Owen and Joey still are pretty enamored by her. Joey loves to "kiss" Olivia (meaning a light bump with his forehead) and Owen always wants to touch and kiss her too. She has been a pretty easy baby so far (knock on wood) - she sleeps alot (both during the day and at night) and has a pretty easygoing disposition. She seems to be getting bigger, but we'll find out exactly how much bigger she is at her pediatrician's appointment next week. Check out the pics below of her first month of life; she's pretty darn adorable in our biased opinions. . .
