Long Live Olivia!

That's right, folks. I have a name!

Mommy and Daddy picked the name, Olivia for me and I just LOVE it, don't you?

"Olivia" is from a Latin word that means "bringer of peace."

I like that, because that's what Jesus did when he came into the world.

In just a little more than three months, I'll be born and can help bring peace, too!

Keep Mommy in your prayers because her heel has been hurting recently and she still has a lot of walking to do before I get out of here!

Thanks for praying for Daddy's job. He's going to have a brand-new one even closer to our home and won't have to work outside in the hot weather anymore!

I hope you like the pictures I picked out (below). One is of my big sister, Abbey, trying to touch me through Mommy's tummy. The others are from a recent visit to the doctor, when he used a special camera to look at me on the inside.

Before I go, I want to say, "Happy Birthday" to my cousin, Jayme, who turns three tomorrow, and to my Grammy, who turns ____ on Friday. (Mommy says she might not like her age posted on the World Wide Web!)

Hope you have a great week!

Love,

Olivia (Middle Name Still Unannounced!)

I'm A Girl!

Yep!

Mommy went to the doctor the other day and found out I'm a GIRL! Isn't that great! That means Abbey and I will be sisters! (That's why I changed my blogsite to pink!)

Best of all, because I already have tons of girl cousins, I'll get lots and lots of clothes for free! I might even have a different outfit for every day of the year!

My name? Well, you'll have to wait a while on that one. Daddy and Mommy are still trying to decide. But, I'm sure they'll come up with a good one! Right now, I'm just glad to know I'm a girl!

Mommy first felt me move in her tummy about three weeks ago and I'm not going to stop until July when they let me out of here! Thanks for your prayers about her side. It doesn't hurt anymore! Praise the Lord!

Be sure to pray for my big sister, Abbey, because she goes to doctor on Tuesday to get tubes put in her ears. That should help her feel better when it's all over with.

I hope to have a picture of my sonogram to post next time. Until then, you'll just have to use your imagination on who I look like. I tried to get Mommy to swallow a mirror so I can see for myself, but she won't do it! I hope I'm as pretty as my big sister!

Thanks for visiting and I'll see you soon!

Love,

New Baby GIRL Texan

Let Me Introduce Myself!

Hello out there!

My name is...well, actually, I don't really have a name, yet.

Heck, the folks don't even know if I'm a boy or a girl, yet! But, they should find out next month.

Mommy says, if I'm a girl, she's going to name me "Fannie" and, if I'm a boy, she's going to name me "Herbert." (But, I think she's just kidding. Not that there's anything wrong with those names! In fact, I had a Great-Great-Great Grandmother named Fannie Valentine, and still have a Great-Great Uncle named William Herbert! I know they'd be proud to have me named after them! ;-))

I'm scheduled to make my grand entrance into the world sometime this summer, probably in July.

All I know is that I'm going to have Abbey Dawn as my Big Sister! She has her own blogsite at: www.abbeydawn.blogspot.com.

And, don't worry about me not having any playmates my age. Daddy says there's like a jillion pregnant moms on the hall and they're going to have their babies this year, too! He says it must be something in the water!

I wish I had some more flattering photos to show you, but I'm posting the only two I have below. I'll try to get some better ones as I get bigger.

For now, thanks for visiting and stop by often!

Love,

Baby Texan
