Once we start the car up it takes awhile for the oil pressure to get up. It finally comes up but only after slowly creeping up. Is this normal and if not what could be causing it?

If you are using the stock gauge I'd say it is normal. Every aftermarket gauge I've used jumps to pressure within 2-3 seconds.
