Olivia's first crush

While we were in Dallas last week, Olivia discovered a new friend she adores. A big thank you to Cousin Anna who thought to bring Pablo over to entertain her. Pablo is a character on the show Backyardigans. The toy Pablo sings and dances when you press his flipper. Olivia can't stop herself from smiling and cooing when she sees and hears him. Just watch her flop around, grinning from ear to ear.

Are you ready for some football

We went to Eric and Stacey's house to watch Monday night football. Pete was still in town from ACL so we cooked out. It was Olivia's first trip of many to come over to the Langhouts. This video gives you a glimpse into their house. Hilarious!

ACL Fest

This weekend the Austin City Limits Music Fest was held in Zilker Park. I've gone every year since it started, but obviously this year's fest was different. I bought a one day pass for Friday, back in May, because the Beastie Boys were going to be the big act of the night. Then MCA was diagnosed with throat cancer so of course they cancelled their tour. Bummer!

Anyway, Eric, Stacey, the kids and I made our way to Zilker. Pete and Susie were also with us. The grass at the park was like golf coarse grass. You could walk barefoot. We listened to Medeski, Martin & Wood (jam band) then a couple songs of a couple other bands I've never heard of. Then it was time to go according to my body. By Sunday, the park was a miserable mud fest after tons of rain on Saturday. But I heard Pearl Jam was amazing to wrap up the festival. Hopefully I'll be back for a full weekend next year!

8 weeks old

Olivia is 8 weeks old. She loves the mornings, unlike her mom and dad, listen to all of the cooing!

Olivia's first outing

This afternoon Olivia went on her first public outing! Of course, it was to Target. She had a marvelous time and fell asleep almost instantly once I put her in the cart. Hooray! Can't wait to try it again.

Anna & Mia visit

Anna, Mia, Amy & Mik stopped by the house on their way to Sea World. It was the first time the girls all met. Anna was very helpful in lulling Olivia to sleep with the rattle. Mia was busy checking everything out and visiting with our dog, Bailey and our cat, Sam. Can't wait for them to spend more time together.

7 weeks old

Getting closer to 2 months, then we can get out of the house...yippee!!
