Happy Easter!

Olivia wants to wish everyone a Happy American and Greek Easter! Thanks Thia Alexis for the bunny towel. As you can see from the blog, Olivia loves bath time AND bath gear!
This holiday weekend brought more family through Atlanta. Olivia got to meet Aunt Ann, Uncle Joey and cousins Sam and Jack who are on their way to (hopefully) warm and sunny Florida for Spring Break. It is freezing in Atlanta (at least by Atlanta standards) and Aunt Ann and Uncle Joey barely escaped an ice/snowstorm on their way to Atlanta. Even if the weather stinks, there is always Easter candy!
Here Olivia roots for food on Aunt Nadine's cheek. We initially thought she was displaying anger at not receiving an Easter basket! Maybe next year she will be ready for candy....

1 Month Old: Pandas, Papou and Poundage!

Today we visited the Atlanta Zoo with Aunt Nadine, Katie, Jake and friends. We were so excited to see the giant pandas. The Grant Park Zoo is fortunate enough to have one of the few giant baby pandas in the world. All of the spring breakers came to see the pandas and the lines were insane. Unfortunately, Mei Lan (the baby) did what most babies do....she slept the entire time we were there--and so did Olivia!


Olivia was one month old yesterday! She is growing like a weed and now weighs over 9 lbs. and is almost 23 inches long. She has finally shown an interest in her bouncy seat and the toys that accompany it. Check out her expression when I removed the rattle that was dangling over her head!



On another note, Olivia has finally met all four of her grandparents. Yiayia and Papou returned to Atlanta last week for her final introduction. Papou did a great job of helping out with spring yardwork while Yiayia helped out with the "indoor chores." Papou managed to sneak Olivia away from Yiayia's arms just long enough for her to fall asleep!

We will certainly miss our visitors. Thanks for all of your help!
