Good evening everyone! It's almost midnight here and I'm determined to get this blog post done before tomorrow! Two blog posts in one day is a lot of work but you know, it's exciting work! I get to talk about my baby girl:)
Olivia is doing well today. Not much has changed today on her progress except for her weight! Remember how in last night's blog I mentioned that they weighted Olivia and she was up by 60 grams? That wasn't right! She must had pooped it out because this afternoon when my mom and I went to visit her she was the same weight as yesterday, 625 grams. Tonight when Jeff and I went to see her she has a new weight! She's up to 645 grams! That's 1.4lbs! Almost 1.5 pounds! So awesome, Olivia! Keep up the great work!
Now I know this blog is mostly about Olivia but sometimes I might switch topics:) I'd like to talk about myself for one paragraph if I may:) You know that saying, "It's all about me?"...well it used to be "all about me" but somebody has taking over. Who could that be? lol... That's okay! I'll share:) Olivia's so worth it, she can take over that phrase...
Today mommy got to do a little shopping therapy! It's been so busy the past couple of weeks I haven't really had chance to get out and enjoy myself out and about. Headed to the mall for a couple of hours with my mom before picking up Jeff at work. (What a nice wife and mother in law you have, Jeff:) ).

After some well deserved shopping therapy and picking up Jeff from work we headed home for some dinner. After dinner Jeff and I headed back up to the hospital to visit our little princess once again. Can't get enough of her! She's so adorable!
Tonight Jeff and I brought back over some gifts that she got yesterday from Barb. Wanted to get a picture of her and her new cute bear as well as read to her some nursery rhymes from her new book, "Mother Goose"! Here is Olivia and her cute white bear! It's way bigger than she is!

We also got a chance to read to her for the first time today. Was a lot of fun! Jeff and I took turns reading a few nursery rhymes
After reading to Olivia for a bit we just sat quietly with her as she went back to sleep. She was very much awake when we arrived. So great to see her little eyes!
I should had put this part of the post up above but forgot! This afternoon Olivia received a very special gift from the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit). Apparently every new born who comes through the NICU gets a gift from the Victoria Quilter's Guild. She received a gorgeous quilt today! She is such a lucky spoiled girl! The quilt is absolutely amazing! (Sorry I didn't have a chance to take a photo of it at the hospital, ill take it back in another time and get a photo of it on her incubator) Here it is:

Okay, it's super late now! These posts sure do take a lot of time but like I said earlier, it's so worth it! I love documenting Olivia's progress and I love reading all your awesome comments every day! Thanks again for all your support. Every day is a blessing for Olivia and we hope that she continues to do as well as she's been doing lately.
Night everyone!
