Getting a Bath

Part of our nightly routine is bathtime. It's Oliver's favorite time of the night. No matter how crabby he is he turns to all smiles in his tub. A few weeks ago Oliver discovered that he could suck on his daddy toe. It's sooooo cute and I finally captured him attacking it in his bath tonight.
This week my Mom and Dad went to visit my sister and my nieces for Emma's birthday so Melody (a long time family friend) came to watch Oliver.  I knew she won him over when  he was all smiles flailing in excitement when he saw her the next day. I was so grateful that she was able to take the time to come over and watch him.


There you are! You where hiding under a sock all day!

If I can just get you in my mouth. Almost

Steady..... Steady

BINGO!!!! Now.... is there room for my thumb in there?

I love baby food!!!!!!!!

So Many Things, So Little Time






Well if you didn't know school has started and time has now become even more valuable. I have been spending my nights soaking up the time I get to spend with Oliver. There has been so many things that have been happening with Oliver so here are the top ten.

  1. Oliver now eats baby food. I've been blending it up food from our garden and Oliver is loving it.
  2. Oliver discovered his tongue out and enjoys sticking it out. Grandpa Wollerman is good at getting Oliver to do it. 
  3. Oliver weighs 20 pounds! Rolls galore!
  4. Oliver now fits into 9-12 month old clothes.
  5. Oliver can sit up for a little bit and then timbers.
  6. He can stand for long periods of time. I think he's trying to get those thunder thighs back in the Bumbo.
  7. Oliver can say Mamamamama. Erik and I had a bet and I won :)
  8. He can move objects from one hand to another.
  9. He laughs more.
  10. Oliver sleeps through the night consistently!! Yay



We made a trip up to the Salm's cabin and enjoyed the Minaqua Beef-o-Rama festival and parade.Oliver still doesn't like fire trucks but sure loved all the attention he got from his little Stormy Kromer hat.


Erik and I also had a nice date night at a Packer game. We got to sit in the box seats and enjoy the game from the indoors with a great view and comfy seats. It was an awesome experience.
