Meet Baby Olivia


We are proud to re-announce (most of you got emails with pictures already) the birth of our precious daughter, Olivia Love Stott. We've had a lot of weird looks at the middle name, so I think I will explain. I really wanted to name this baby after my Grandpa Bud, since his real name is Harrison, and I love that name. Unfortunately naming a girl Harrison is something that even I wont do, but his mother, whom he adored, had the maiden name "Love." I will never get to use Harrison, but I did get to honor a man I truly love and admire. Plus "Love" is just cool, so there. I'm still recovering from the C-section so this will be very brief. I just wanted to put up a few pictures (one, of course, is Livi in her going home outfit that I knitted) I'll fix red eye later and replace pics, but for now I'll justs add as is. The kids are very sweet to the baby and want to help feed and hold her. In the hospital they seemed to enjoy being at the hospital, and eating there, more than seeing me or Olivia. Oh well. As soon as I figure out how to add video I have a great one to post. Joan got us a great new camera as a baby gift and it is simply fabulous. It does everything, and does it well. Hopefully I'll figure that out before Livi's 1st birthday. I'm going to go shower and try and feel human again. My love to everyone.
