Peyton Ann is here!!!

Well we had a kind of fast and scary delivery but Peyton Ann is finally here! My contractions started around 5:30pm on Saturday and became really quick and painful really fast around 7:30. We called my mom and good thing she got here when she did because we rushed to the hospital, parked in front of the building in a non-parking spot, barely made it upstairs and into a room at 8:45pm and delivered Peyton at 8:52! I still can't believe it! I guess the good thing is that it went really fast :) Here are some pictures of our crazy night and of our new little princess!
7 lbs. 8 oz. 21 inches long
Daddy and Peyton!
Mommy and Peyton! All they had time to hook me up to was a pulse monitor on my finger. There was no time for anything else!
She had one small little bruise under her eye from coming so fast but it went away right away.
First Visitor....of course was Auntie Vickie!
Grandma was shortly after :)
Grandpa......who guessed the right delivery day and is pretty proud of that :)
Liv meeting her new baby sister for the first time....
Our new family! Nice shirt on me (Kathy's Pub) but no time to put on a gown even!
First bath!
Now my hair is pretty :) She has a lot of hair but it is much lighter than Olivia's was. It is dark on top and blonde underneath already!
All bundled up!
Me and my girls!
Chris is a little out numbered now :)
She loves her little sister!
Great Granny and Grandpa visiting.
The Wilson's visiting!
The Schultz's Visiting.
Auntie visiting.
She has really long skinny feet!
Getting ready to go home!

Livy Lu and her Tutu!

We are getting bored waiting for this baby to come and we haven't taken any new pictures of Olivia lately so we thought we would have a mini photo shoot :) A friend of mine at work made Olivia this tutu for Christmas and she LOVES it! She never wants to take it off when she puts it on! Thanks Tina!

My first Movie!

We took Olivia to her first movie in the theatre tonight......Yogi Bear.....I guess we were feeling brave :) She sat right down when we got there so we were doing good at first :) She loved the popcorn and candy....despite spilling her bag of M & M's on the floor because she wanted to hold them herself :) Overall she did pretty good.....she just didn't want to sit still after a while........surprise surprise :) She said she liked the movie so I guess we will have to take her to another one soon.....although next time we will probably have to get a babysitter for the new one that should be here any day now!

Getting closer.....Getting ready.....

Well we have less than 4 weeks until Baby Stenzel will be here so we have been really busy trying to get everything out of storage, washed, and ready to go for the big day! We got a lot done this weekend and I am starting to feel ready now.....just a few things left to do! It is so weird to walk past the baby's room and not see Olivia's stuff in there and the crib raised back up again and ready to go. I have to admit it was a little sad coming up the first night of putting Olivia to bed downstairs and seeing her room empty. Pretty soon it will be filled up again though so we can't be sad about that! Will it be a boy or girl.....we can't wait to find out!
We got this play mat out and Olivia immediately jumped under it and had to test it out!
Crib is ready to go!
Books and baby toys are out!
Olivia's baby wall frame is moved to her new room and the new one is up and ready to be filled with pictures!

My "Big Girl" Room!

Well Olivia's big girl room is finally done and she is all moved in! She did really well her first night besides being a little scared when we turned the lights off and seems to be really excited about her room. She was a big help moving all of her toys and clothes downstairs and had fun putting everything in it's new spot. She loves showing her new room to everyone that comes over! Here she is on her first night of no more crib!
All ready to read stories before her first night in her big girl bed!
She looks pretty little in this big bed!
Her new book/toy bin shelf. She was nice enough to pick out the "big girl" books....and of course her "Olivia" ones and leave the rest upstairs for the new baby.
She got to bring the toy box from the living room down to her new room....more space for us upstairs :) and she loves her little table and chairs in the corner and has already used it a lot!
Her big Polka dot/butterfly tree.
She is pretty excited about having her name on the wall above her bed! This is the first thing she tells everyone when they look at her new room...."That's Olivia up there!"
