Olivia in her baby duck outfit! We took her down to downtown Edmonds, were they go all out for the kids. It was fun looking at them all especially the babies. We went early before dark for a really short time, because Olivia sometimes REALLY hates her carseat/stroller! But not this time! Wish we had taken more pictures.

We have been putting this pink lavendar bear on her tummy as needed. We can warm it up in the microwave and it helps her gassiness a little.

The month of October was a drier than usual October, so Olivia and I were able to go on 2 walks a day most of the time. Here are some pictures of things we liked to look at, especially the beautiful fall colors.




This is one of three linked duck ponds we visit on our walks. Supposedly, the story is that Hiram Chittendin (?),owned this land and built these ponds and locks back in the 1920's. The 3 ponds are on different levels connected by a live stream similar to the lock system at the Seattle Ballard Locks, were you can go view salmon runs.

Almost home! (oh my gosh . . . Olivia's hair is unaffected by the fog and marine layer setting in but not mine!)


Sunset over Puget Sound from Water street. . . also part of our walks.


This is the back side of one of the ponds and one of the houses' driveways that the ducks congregate around. Their are soooo many ducks! But oddly, they all fly the coup down to Seattle right at sunset everyday return again the next morning.


Beautiful fall dahlia's in bloom.

Little Olivia getting a little tummy time on a pillow! This is from when she was 10 weeks old. Great head control!!

I know it has been a while since I have posted anything, but we got a new little easy-to-use digital video camera and now we have all these cool little video clips of our little Baby Button but I can't post them to this blog. (Any tips anyone?) So I have been neglecting the camera, but will get back to it now!
Here' s little Olivia with her Kitty feet sleeper on. (I know the flash on my camera is too much . . . I really need to get the manual out and determine the right setting!)

We couldn't resist putting Olivia into her duck outfit for our evening walk to keep her warm. She really hates having her clothes changed, but once on the walk she enjoys herself and either looks all around or falls asleep against my chest. She usually snores a little too. :-)

I can't help posting all these sleeping baby pics. In my defense, she sleeps alot and is still enough for me to take her pic! There will be more, sorry.

Olivia gets pretty fussy in the evenings, so we hold her in the airplane hold. . . Steve has it down pat! Olivia is sleeping like, well, a baby!

The girls in my investment club had a baby party for us at our October meeting . It was very thoughtful of them! And fun too. Thanks for the gifts guys and the great cake!






And Gail brought TJ! He is a very happy baby! And incredibly handsome!

I think Olivia really is looking like her dad here . . . and don't worry about the crossed eyed look, she has already gained the muscle control and grown out of that. She is a beautiful baby!
