Loved it, as usual, but you already knew that. Can't wait to meet this new baby! =)
Author's Response: Awww, thanks :) You know the rest of the kids can't wait to meet the new baby either...but I feel like Maddie will be having some issues soon, haha ;)

Oh my God, forever CONTINUE this story! Loving every update! Is it weird that I find older Jim kinda hot? Like, in the way that one would find Hugh Laurie hot.... And as a teenager whose Mom is turning fifty soon, the idea of having another sibling is really...*shudders* So I see where the kids are coming from.
And thank you for a truly wonderful break from studying. Unfortunately, my schedual prevents me from any writing/editing of my own, but reading is quick and lovely!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I think older Jim is hot too...and HUGH LAURIE! I'm so glad someone feels the same way I do about him! I wanted the kids reactions to be genuine so I am glad they came across that way.rnrnI have finals coming up in the next two weeks so I know how you feel! I am trying to focus on that but all i want to do really is write JAMmy goodness!

Five kids is lot... having four kids makes you a large family, but I can see planning four, two of each. It makes sense for the 'oops' to be on number five, so I say well played!
This large, lively family is lots of fun!
Author's Response: Good, I'm glad you find them fun because I want them to seem real, but also kind of ideal, if there is such thing. Thanks for reading and commenting :)

I love this series so much :)
Author's Response: Thank you so much :) I didn't know if this chapter would go over well because, HELLO! 5 KIDS! But accidents happen, I was one too :)

umm ADORABLE!! Love the writing of the older kids, and we totally had family shots done of us in white tees and jeans, i LOVE this !
Author's Response: Thank you so much :) We had jeans/t-shirt pictures done like that too when I was younger, I couldn't resist using it here.

Like I say every time, I love the family you've created for Jim and Pam. And I love that we get this sneak peek into the future, instead of having to go baby at a time, you know? Really great job, I'm looking forward to the next snapshot!
Author's Response: Thanks, doll! I think the next one I'll keep them older again, just to practice, even though I love writing about babies because who doesn't love babies?! I think I'm channeling Kelly Kapoor, haha, oops.

Freaking adorable, I loved it as usual :)
Author's Response: Thank you! I had so much trouble with this one, ugh! But I am glad it worked out okay :)

Squee! So cute! This is such an adorable story...I love it! Yeah, it's mostly fluff, but somehow it feels like there's a little bit more to it, you know? I think you've nailed Jim and Pam's characters, and I love Olivia!
I dunno if you've got parts of the story planned out already or what, but d'you think you could maybe do a story taking place at the beach? I just got back from a trip with some friends, and I thought about how much I'd love a story about that! Anyway, I look forward to an update!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I don't have anything planned specifically, I just have a few different ideas that I have started working on for the next chapters. And it's funny you mention something about a beach, because that may be coming up soon :)

Haha, thanks for the shout out. I'm blushing over here =)
Anyway, great job as usual. I really love Olivia--you do such a great job with her characterization, and the way that she and Jim and Pam interact with each other is so exactly how I'd picture them with a child--it's really fantastic. And this entire chapter is just...freaking cute. Adorable. I love it.
KEEP IT UP!
Author's Response: :):):) Thank you. There's a lot of pressure now, yeesh! Haha.

awwww, this story is just precious. keep up the good work!
Author's Response: Thank you, I will try!

Aw, this was so sweet. I love how you go for such a simple, beautiful moment between the three (four) of them. I'm sorry I have no suggestions for you, but I do hope you keep writing. :)
Author's Response: It's okay, compliments are more than welcome too :) I'm glad you liked it!

I agree, Big Tuna IS awesome, she's just started beta-ing for me and I want to squeeeze out all of her awesomeness and EAT IT, so that I am just as awesome as her lol.
This my dear was fabulous :) I demand more. I have fallen in love with Olivia already!
Author's Response: Thank you!! I was having a tough time writing Liv at first, I was trying to remember what my cousins were like at that age, how well they could speak, etc. I hope I'm doing okay so far!rnrnAnd don't worry, there's still a lot of mischief for Olivia Halpert to get into :)rnrnLOL @ the awesomeness comment, but I concur, she rocks!

I like this chapter. Such a sweet family moment. I don't know why but this line particularly tickled my funny bone:
Even so, her three-year-old mind was racing now at the thought of all the things he would get into once he was here.
I can just see a toddler with her little face scrunched up in disapproval. I like the dialogue and flow of this chapter. It seemed more realistic and less contrived than the prior chapter. I LIKED "The Oliv ia and Boomer Show" ... I just liked this BETTER.
Author's Response: Thank you!rnrnJust curious, what didn't you like about the last chapter? If there's something that needs to be improved, definitely let me know! :)

Please continue! This is such a cute story, and I can't wait to read more. :-)
Author's Response: Thank you! That makes me feel much better :)

You should definitely continue this, it was freaking adorable, and just how I can imagine the Halpert clan :)
So yeah, this needs to be a series ;)
Author's Response: Whew, I am glad people are liking it so far. I am working on the next part so that will be up soon! Thank you!
Date: April 08, 2009 05:43 pm Title: The Olivia and Boomer Show
I... I just... I just want to see this happen on the show as soon as possible. lol
Jim and Pam as parents make me tingle a little bit. This: “Why? Is he gonna to be naughty?” Liv’s eyes widened; this was not a possibility she had considered. made me laugh a lot. And this: “Hey Little Man, you taking care of Mom and Sister today?” made my heart feel very, very full.
I loved this. More please. :)
Author's Response: I know, I want to see it too, ASAP! But of course we'll have to wait *sigh*.rnrnI'm glad you like the story, I was ervous about posting something like this because I wasn't sure if someone had already done a similar story but my lovely beta dug the idea so I just went with it.rnrnAnd if you like the 'Little Man' comment Jim makes to Jackson, then you'll probably (hopefully!) like the chapter that I have planned in the near-future, very father and son based. Jim as a dad makes my heart flutter the same way BJ Novak's blue eyes do.

So so so so so so so freaking cute. I love the title, too, "The Olivia and Boomer Show." I really love Liv, she's so cute and Halpert-y and I love love this little family you're creating. Please do more--I mean, you have my suggestions already so I won't repeat them, but I will say:
GET TO IT. My email inbox is cold and lonely!!
Author's Response: I definitely want to do more with Olivia and Boomer, I think she is going to be a very interesting little girl :) I am so glad you like it, hopefully people are enjoying reading it as much as I like writing about them.rnrnI want to have the next one I told you about finished by maybe tomorrow, more likely Friday. And yes, I have your suggestions and love those ideas too, so don't worry, you may be bombarded with many chapters at once!
