3 Weeks Old

Here is her 3 week picture. With a bit of strategic propping she is able to sit up on her own.



Apparently she already has a taste for Old Navy and Gap cloths...I think I'm in trouble.


Everyone here is doing great. One more week of vacation for me and then we'll see how good I am at multitasking with work and baby. Grandma Ollig is coming to visit on Thursday and Avery is very excited to meet her. I know I know, she can't talk yet. I'm not crazy, thinking my three week old daughter is talking to me. ...She typed it on the computer.

2 Weeks and Sniffling

Well we're coming up on the three week birthday. I can't wait, I love cake. Of coarse she can't eat solid food yet so Erin and I have to eat it all but what are you gonna do...?

Anyways, she didn't waste any time getting her first cold. It's been a little over a week so she's about all done with it. Still a few boogers here and there but feeling much better I'd say. In case you were wondering, it's not much fun for a two week old to have a cold. The nose is a lot smaller but the snot is the same size. But she's lots better now.

Here's the two week picture. Not quite filling this outfit yet but she's working on it.

--ok this dumb site wont let me upload pictures today so I guess it'll have to wait.--

Avery Jane Oglevee

I got tired of looking at that old football player every time I logged on here so I thought it was time I put a picture of a cute girl on.

I met This guy today!

So I was standing in my shop today with our Rec coordinator, going over a few final details for this weekends wedding event. And I don't use the word "event" loosely! By far our largest wedding to date. They have told us that they are expecting 600 people and have spent $50,000! Perhaps that may not seem like a lot to pay for a wedding to some but...it IS!

What was I saying again? Oh yeah, I was standing in my shop and this old grey haired fella came walking up to talk to us. Very nice, polite guy. I shook his hand as he told me his name and that's when I saw "it"! THE ring that any true blooded vikings fan cringes at the sight of. The one with the big fat IV on it! And there he was, flaunting it in my face, knowing very well that I was from Minnesota! What a jerk! I could go into a hobbit reference here and talk about feeling the urge to throw "the ring" off the rim of the Edgerton volcano into a bubbling pool of lava...But I'm not THAT big of a geek so I wont.

Ok I'm just kidding, he was a nice old man. I guess he was just driving by and saw the park and had to stop and see what we were all about. He sure wasn't modest about his accomplishments...but I guess if I had one of them things I'd be going to the 7-11 just to show it to people.

So, like I said we have a Ginormous wedding this weekend. So far they have been one of the easiest going groups we've had. I just hope it stays that way.

Just in case there is anyone reading this just to see if we had the baby yet, I'll tell you in a minute......... ok I'm kidding, no baby yet. She's still kickin like crazy. I think she's running out of room in there so maybe it'll motivate her to come on time. I'll be sure to keep you all posted!

As for the "mento's challenge" that has been a source of endless seconds of entertainment for a few of the Ollig boys... Hold tight, my entry into the competition is coming soon. Prepare to be outdone!
