Oly is now 5 months old. She is sitting up, rolling over both ways, laughing, cooing, sleeping through the night and just started to eat rice cereal this week. Oh did I mention she is 18lbs!!! Yes, this girl is BIG, but she is strong, healthy and happy as can be. She is such a joy to have and we absolutely love every moment with her.
This past month was full of adventure. I had gone back to work from maternity leave, but that did't stop us from making our weekends packed. On a last minute decision we packed our family in the car and drove to the Bay for a Giants game and the zoo the next day. This was Kins first time to the zoo, so she was very excited to see all the animals we read in books, sing about in songs, and watch in cartoons.

Also this month, we went for a family walk/golf. A 9 hole golf course is near our house and it made for a fun morning.

| Hi Daddy! |
Just when I was getting used to being back at work. The owners of my company announced any moms that had babies in the last year, could take another 4 months off (fully paid) to spend more time with our babies. There is about 8 of us. My work was scheduled to open a daycare center this summer and postponed it until January. This is the reason they are giving me and the other mommies more time off. Once the daycare center opens in January we will be called back to work. Until then, I will be enjoying every moment with my family. Travel, adventure, birthdays and holidays are in our future. So, stay tuned...
