On the Lawn

Friday, after a warm walk in the desert (the umbrella brought for rain protection ended up being used for shade)in sarah's Baby Bjorn (Olivia slept most of the way, seemed to think it was pretty comfortable!), Olivia and I sat on the lawn with Olivia's aunt Kristen (my sister) and Sarah (born at term, a month before Olivia). She has been having a grand time watching her older cousins - they make her laugh! More pics from this, as soon as they get downloaded.

Olivia begins her culinary experience with her very own sprig of sage. She likes to feel the different textures of the dry flowers and the leaves.

Olivia has been sitting up by herself for the past week and a half and she is also getting much better at pushing up on her stomach. As well as just using her forearms, she is also pushing up on her hands, which gets her alot further off the ground. Sometimes, this gets her really close to rolling over from her front to her back.
