who knew you can love like this......

As I sit here listen to oliva's Cd play in the background and listen to the sounds of her breathing over the baby monitor, I'm asking myself if i ever knew that i was capable of love like this. That little girl has rocked my whole world. I love her smile,her laughs, her coo's . I would do anything to make her happy and everything to take away any pain that she is in. I'm not sure how to describe how i feel about her and i'm sure that any mother that reads this agrees with me. I know that it's got to be close to the love that God feels for me. I often just look at that face and think, " Thank you so much Lord for letting us raise her". She i truly Daddy's little girl and mommy's angel. For those of you that have not met olivia you are truly missing out on meeting a piece of heaven! I feel like God gave us olivia to help us heal from loosing Taryn and i can truly say that this little girl has given each family member a sense of peace and a lot of healing. I feel like we will always be missing a part of the family but i know that Olivia has helped fill in a hole that we have all been missing for five years.

Baby Olivia is here

Well I'm sure each of you know this but baby olivia arrived safely on feb. 18th 2008 at 8:54 pm at a whopping 7 lbs 15 oz. and 19 3/4 inches long. I am really going to try and keep this updated so each of you can see olivia grow and know what she is up to in everyday life. To all of you that came and saw us, thank you so much. I'm so grateful for amazing family and friends that have been so supportive in these past 9 months.

Baby showers,job hunting and love!

Well two weeks ago my best friend Laura Anne threw me a baby shower for work people and a few family member! (Don't worry to all that are reading this, My friend christen is throwing a shower for strictly family and a few close friends in Jan. which all of you will be invited to and i hope that you can make it.)The shower went well and olivia got a lot of good stuff! I'm so thankful for amazing friends and family. I am now on the job hunt, just looking for something seasonal, I got let go today from my job, but i'm looking at it as a blessing because i was getting hit and kicked by one of my kids and it was getting a little dangerous for me and olivia! Matt and i also celebrated our two year anniversary since the last time that i wrote and i must say that we enjoyed it very much. God has been so good to matt and I over the past 8 years! I hope that this thanksgiving season is finding you each well and thankful for the life that God has given each of us! May He continue to bless each of you as this season continues!
Lots of Love
Matt, Krissy and Olivia Taryn

Is there a pumpkin under you shirt Mrs.Krissy?

I hope that this update finds each of you well! Just though i would share a picture with you! One of my kids told me that it looked like a i had a pumpkin under my shirt, so christen and I thought we would get get a shot of this while we were at the pumpkin patch!! Now mind you, my kids are autistic... It never ceases to amaze me how smart they are! This is me almost 6 months!

Colors and swings and great test results!

Hello All,

 Hope that you are enjoying this fall weather as much and Matt and I are. Things with olivia are going great! I'm growing bigger and bigger and loving every minute of it! I love feeling her move inside me. So this past weekend my amazing daddy with a little help from my husband painted olivia's room! I love the colors ! We did one wall pink and the other three are green. I hope to get pictures up sometime this week. On saturday Mom and Dad went to a resale shop and got olivia her swing and bouncy seat! Mom thought it was recalled, but after looking it up further the model that she bought has not been recalled. I'm not sure what we would do without my parents help! Thank God for parents! This past week i was sick with a double ear infection along with a cold, so to say the least that was lots of fun! I am feeling much better now which is good for me and olivia.

      We got my test results back last week and they say my blood sugar is perfect and that i have nothing to worry about... So thank you so much for your prayers. I hope this update finds each of you well and getting ready for the upcoming  season. 

We love you all

20 week check up !

Yesterday was the 20 week check up where they do an ultrasound and check how Olivia is doing and growing! I got a great report saying that everything looked amazing and that all her parts were working and performing just like they should! It was very exciting to see how much she had grown! We heard her strong little heart beating! The best sound in the world is hearing that little heart beat! It's like music to my ears! Small prayer request, they did testing for gestational diabetes and we will get the results back soon! Just pray that it's negative and that she will continue to grow and be strong! Love ya'll !

Krissy and Olivia!
