Daddy's Little Girl
Jose is, shall we say, smitten with his little girl. At the ripe age of nearly 8 weeks - she has got this guy wrapped around her finger. It is something to see...a normally tough guy melting like butter when he looks at his daughter. HI BABY - is how he greats her when he gets home from work...but in a very high pitched voice. I have discovered that he really likes giving Olivia her bath. Tonight when we were bathing her - well Jose was giving her the bath - and I was sitting on the toilet watching - he was talking to her in a calm voice and for the first time she did not scream during bath time. He also likes dressing her. Tonight he picked out her Jedi-Knight outfit...that's his name for her white side-snap onesie and white leggings. She does look cute - and Jose thinks that she looks the most beautiful in all white. On Sunday moring I took Bryan the Dog for a walk around Reeds Lake and when I got home Jose and Olivia dressed for the day....an interesting choice of clothing...but he was proud of his selections and thought she looked adorable. I didn't have the heart to change her in matching clothes.
It sure is cute though - a father with his baby.

There's just something about Daddy and his little girl. Love the story about Jose dressing her--just wait, it gets better. I used to want to go back and re-dress the boys and Kelsey, but I don't anymore...it's not the important thing.
