New Soccer Season / One growing girl

A brand new soccer season kicks off today for us here in Mitchell, and for me as a referee. It's going to be an interesting day though, as I've never done indoor soccer before. It's all played inside on a basketball court, so this should be an adventure all itself. There are some different rules, and I don't know some of them, however, that will be part of the fun. So, that's what I'm up to today and early tomorrow morning before Church.

Well, Little Olivia is not known as "little" so much anymore around our house. She's getting big already. We've seen one month come and go now, and she's growing like a little weed. Of course, that's what it seems like as much as she eats though, I'm not too surprised. She's got me pretty much figured out and how much whining she has to do before I spoil her and pick her up. She's very convincing at making it sound like something is really wrong, and then as soon as you have her lifted off her back, the crying ends and you know that you've been suckered. I fall for it every single time. But, someone has to take care of the poor little thing. As of our month checkup on Tuesday, Olivia had grown 1.5 inches and had gained 2 pounds and 2 ounces since we left the hospital. She is starting to pick up some chunk on the cheeks, but sometimes they look extremely chubby, and sometimes she looks like not a chubby baby. Either way, her daddy loves her and spoils her. Her mother does these things too, but she's got her dad wrapped around her little finger for sure. By reader request, here are a couple photos for you to enjoy.
