Daily life with Oliver

These are some random pictures I took of the boy that capture some of the fun things he does lately. This is what life is like with this little sweetheart.

He likes to snuggle with his mom and dad.

He LOVES to look out the window and stand on the window ledge and smack the glass. This boy has no fear!

Oliver's other great love is reading books. I don't think a single day has gone by without one or both of us reading him a book and its usually his idea. Some nights he will drag out every book he owns one after another (and he has a lot of books!). Lately he also likes to climb onto your lap and snuggle while you read to him.

And he loves to read along too!
We have a little ritual when either of us leaves the house. Oliver goes to the window and we wave goodbye to each other. He will press his face to the glass and crain his neck to watch you go as long as he can.

He has a really long reach and he doesn't let us get away with leaving anything within his reach. Luckily this time it was just one of his toys.

Oliver loves to take baths. This one says it all.

Pure joy.

After the bath. He always tries to escape without a diaper on and run around his room naked...Mike wouldn't let me put those photos on the internet though.

Another staple to Oliver's day is reorganizing his dad's drawers. Mike's underwear have turned up in some unusual places...

Just a few snapshots of our daily life with this sweet and spirited little boy. He is so much fun!

  2. Thanks Dawn! I agree, it has been really nice to get to see you guys more often. Your family is also very sweet. I love watching Trent and Oliver together, they are so funny. I got some cute photos of Oliver trying to copy Trent climbing yesterday - I'll send them to you.
