6. smile often
7. find some one to wait on you 24/7
8. appreciate life simple things.... like the sky and trees

getting into a routine

it's been such a blessing having little Olivia in our lives, we are so blessed... We are finally getting into a routine however, we have not yet gotten Olivia to sleep in her crib and I am okay with that. I realize that life is short and I certainly don't want to rush things.... Our pediatrician said to wait until she is twelve pounds and twelve weeks before allowing her to cry it out (as far as sleeping in her crib and crying herself to sleep, as long as she is changed and fed), so next week we will give it a try...

a walk in the park...
