Our little girl

Well I think another week has gone by since the last post? My days seem to run together and before I know it a new week has approached without my ok.
Anyways... I just thought I would put up a few more picks of Olivia or Liv (as daddy prefers)
We are so blessed to have such a wonderful baby! Things may change but this little baby has a grunt for a cry and if she didn't do that I don't know how else I would know she needed anything. Don't get me wrong, there are times this baby cries but it is very rare. I am sure that now that I have said that she will begin to cry all the time now and everyone will think that I am a liar!
We are finding out that Miss Olivia doesn't look much like Rog or me. Everyone is sure to tell us that she is a "merritt" baby. I was told the other day that she looks like her uncle Jay. (Rog's brother) I also discovered the other day that she could definitely be one of Shane and Devin's babies. (Rog's brother and sister in law) She would just fit right in and no one would ever question it!See what I mean by a "merritt" baby? Apparantly that means you look like anyone other than Rog in that family. In a good light she looks like she could have RED hair so only time will tell for that one. Let me just say though that if she does we will look like one odd family! Luke was so dark as a baby so I don't think I am still used to having a baby that is light in skin color. I did say though that this time around we would have one that would probably be completely opposite of luke. I said it but I didn't actually think it would be true! I will still keep her though! She is so precious!

Man, she is so cute, how are you guys doing? How is Luke feeling? Jamy and Andrea finally had their baby too, she was 8 days late, I felt so bad for Andrea. They named her Isabella, she is a doll and doesn't look like the other two either, its funny how siblings can look so different.

Aim,

Your post is soooo funny. Now you really know how I felt when everyone said Colin looked like Uncle Jay! (And by the way, that is all I ever hear when we take our children (especially as newborns) to Southside...."Oh, he's a Merritt! It gets old. No duh, He's a Merritt. LOL)

I hate to say it too (and you certainly have the right to roll your eyes and ignore me and I promise there will be no hard feelings) but I do think she looks a lot like our boys! :-) And if she has red hair...you are really in trouble! I just may have to swipe her from you. She'd fit right in with us. (It would probably be my only shot at a girl, short of adoption). That is sooooo funny.

Can't wait to watch her own little look develop over the next months!

Love you all,
Dev and the boys
