Another milestone week!

Another milestone week this week! O'lena has moved into size 2 diapers and 3-6 months clothes, learned how to hold her own bottle, eat cereal, AND ROLL OVER!! It has been amazing. She is growing so fast! Besides all the developments with O'lena, life has been a bit crazy. It seems like drama has picked back up at work and I really don't want to deal with it. But I am excited for spring break and to be heading up to see my grandparents this week. We are making it a short trip because we want to get back to finish the shower..... :):):):) Man, it just started to pour here!!! It is making the house smell really good. We have the windows and doors open because the weather has been so nice. It is even thundering out. oooooooooo
Well here are some good pictures from the last couple of weeks.

This is O'lena at her first official "play date." This is my friend's daughter, who is three, sitting with O'lena. She was very good with here. She was even holding her and O'lena was just fine with it. Okay so my computer is not allowing me to move my pictures around the way I want to so they are out of orders...sorry.
This is O'lena eating cereal for the first time. I think she spit more out then I even put in her mouth! But after some practice she was getting the hang of it. She even was grabbing hold of my hand and pulled it towards her mouth when she wanted more. It was amazing. We took plenty of pictures but this was my favorite. It was the "I'm not sure what my mom is giving me" face. This is O'lena and mommy at the soccer filed to watch daddy play soccer. His team didn't win but we did have fun.
Derick's "action shot." No goal this time, but it was still good. We enjoy watching him play.Daddy and O'lena after the game. This is an awesome picture!! Yes, so every mom needs to have pictures of her baby sleeping! She was just so darn cute. This was when she was taking a nap yesterday. Of course it was right before we had to leave to go somewhere so I was going in to wake her up. I couldn't pass up the cuteness.
O'lena hanging out outside. She was just being cute.
So Derick decided it would be a good idea to dress up the cat. I could not believe he Sebastian him do it. When I came in the cat was just lying there allowing Derick to button up O'lena's outfit. It was really funny when he tried to get up and walk around. Sebastian just kind of hobbled around and then flopped down and whined.My favorite picture of the week! She really likes to chew on cloth. She loves her blankies and any bib that we have on her. She like to suck on her hand too. I thought she looked just like Linus on the peanuts. Here she is holing her own bottle during church today. It was Palm Sunday too so that is why she is holding a palm frown. She held on to it for the whole service. Derick even processed in with her with the other children this morning. It was so adorable! He had her waving her little palm. I about died! So if you haven't been watching LIFE on Discovery you should totally chec it out. It is beautiful, and very interesting. I still can not figure out how they get some of the shots. It is on sunday night at 8pm EST.
Her is video of O'lena rolling over for the first time. It was last week Sunday that it happened. I had just put her on her stomach and came back to check on her and found her like that. I ran really fast to get my Flip and totally caught it on video. It was so great! She has rolled over a couple of times for the sitter but not for Derick yet. She really hasnt done it again for me either. We know it will happen again soon :):)
