Olivia is 6 weeks!

Maternity leave has flown by:( This is my last week before I return to work. I'm so sad to be leaving my family, even if it is just 3 overnights a week. Olivia is getting so big! She has her two month checkup next week and I can't wait to see how much weight she has gained. I'm not excited for her to get her immunizations but of course it's a necessary discomfort.
The house is coming along nicely. Hopefully this week they will be siding the house. It's amazing how quickly they can build at hearthstone! We are all so excited to move and I've been able to utilize maternity leave to get quite a bit of packing and deep cleaning done. I'm hoping to get a few more boxes done this week.
I got a second job. It's just very part time, maybe one weekend a month. I have a girlfriend who works for a home health care agency and has been telling me to come and apply for months now. They gave me what I asked for in terms of salary right off the bat and it's really easy work...dressing changes and drawing labs, and IV infusions, primarily.
Rachels wedding was 2 weeks ago and was beautiful! Cecelia was the prettiest flower girl ever!
Cecelia ajoined Girls scouts and loves it. They only meet every other week at the school so it's easy to fit in to our schedule. She continues to improve at gymanstics! I was so impressed with her back bend walk over the other day. She is getting so big and she is soooo good with Olivia. She is a great big sister and such a good helper to me. Never complaining when I ask her to help me with something...and since I'm breastfeeding I need more help sometimes since my hands are tied at times. We haven't been back to church since before the baby was born and Cecelia has been begging to go but every weekend we accidentally over sleep or baby is nursing and we run late and havent' been able to make it, until today. We were both so happy to go to church today.
Aaron's birthday is next weekend. He is turning 29! Old man:) We are having his family over for his favorite meal. A chicken dish, sweet potatoes, fresh green beans and better than sex cake. Then the following weekend, Aaron and Cece (along with a bunch of Aaron's family) are going down to Kansas City for the weekend for the Vikings game. I was originally planning on going...this was before the baby was born that I agreed. However, now that she is here and nursing is going so good, I hate to leave her. So, I gave my ticket to Cecelia and she is so excited to go to an NFL game with her Dad! Were now on the hunt for a Vikings T-shirt for her.
Life is good in the Culver house! We are so truly blessed!
