A very merry Christmas..

Olivia had a wonderful first Christmas!
Santa brough Olivia a kitchen. She wasn't too sure about it at first..

But she warmed up to playing with it!

She loved the paper and bows the most.

She got pretty excited about opening gifts.

Nana bought her a warm hat for the winter!

Our sweet little family :)

Olivia's first Thanksgiving!

We made the first of many hand turkeys!

Happy Halloween!

Olivia had a blast dressing up for Halloween and visiting family!

Enjoying Fall

Picking out the perfect pumpkin and a couple of photo shoots:

Baby face!

Olivia has the best expressions! We love watching her and her many funny faces. Here are a few that I love to share!

This has infamously been named the roller coaster picture:

First Beach Trip!

Before I went back to work, we took a trip to Oak Island with my family. Olivia, as always, loved being outside. Being on the beach was a bit windy for her but wrapped up in a towel, she fell asleep!

The ride there was long. This is her "are we there yet?" expression..
