Isabelle Jane Oliverson

Our beautiful baby girl is here!!!  Her name is Isabelle Jane.  She was born on April 7th at 8:26 p.m.  She was 6 lb 6 oz and 18 inches long!  She came 2 weeks early which was a surprise to all of us.  Everything went really well with no complications.  She is very sweet and snuggly!  Up until the past few days I would have said that she sleeps like an angel at night waking only to eat...but that was too good to last.  Let's hope tonight goes better!  The boys absolutely love her.  They want to hold her all the time.  Erik does really well and Aidan needs quite a bit of monitoring!  We are so happy she is here!  What a miracle and blessing!

Erik loves how tiny Isabelle's toes are and Aidan loves how tiny her "hangnails" (fingernails) are.

Under the "billi blanket" to help her jaundice.
She looked like a glow worm.
This is a "Diaper Cake" some friends gave me.  So adorable!!

Visit from Alands & getting ready for baby girl

1 Week before Isabelle was born (37 Weeks).
My sister Jen and Niece Elizabeth came and stayed with us.  She helped get the nursery ready.  The room is mostly done, we just have a few projects in progress to hang on the walls.
We also celebrated my Birthday! 
The boys couldn't get enough of their little cousin.  Thanks Aunt J!

San Diego

We took the kids to San Diego with Uncle Sean, Aunt Gina and my Nephew Jace and Niece Ellie.  We went to the beach, San Diego Zoo, a Science Museum and Sea World (of course).  We all absolutely loved it and had such a fun time.  Thanks Sean and Gina for letting us come with you!!
