And Then There Were Two!

Howdy, Pardners!

Since I last blogged, there's a new kid on the block! My new little sister, Olivia Jane, was born on July 8th at 3:31 p.m. She weighed 7 lbs. 15 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long! She even has her own blogsite!

Ditty and Grammy came down to help Mommy and Daddy during the days before and after Olivia arrived. We had lots of fun! Daddy took us over to his new office building where he works. It's right across the street from the building where we live, so we get to see him on his lunch hour and he doesn't have to work outside anymore!

We spent lots of time in the swimming pool and I showed everybody how I can go underwater by myself! I like to jump off the side and kick my legs. It helps to keep cool when you're in the pool!

Grammy read me lots of books while she was here. I think my favorite has Grover in it and it's called, "There's A Monster At The End Of This Book!" Even though I've heard it read to me lots of times and I know how it's going to end, I still like it!

Know what? When Mommy had Olivia in the hospital, Daddy gave me a brand new baby of my very own! She came with a bottle of milk and a bottle of apple juice and a little carrier to hold her in. Now, when Mommy carries Olivia around, I can carry my baby around, too!

I really love Olivia and have learned to be gentle with her. She's not as tough as I am, so I have to be careful when I'm hugging and kissing her. Grammy got me a shirt that says, "I'm the Big Sister" and a matching one for Olivia that says, "I'm the Little Sister." They're so cute!

They had to go home after a while, but they promised to come back for my birthday in October. And we're going to see them for Christmas! It'll be Santa time before you know it!

Love ya,

Abbey Dawn
