Portrait Of A 1 1/2 Year Old!





Oliver was 18 months old this past Saturday! While the time has gone by fast, Oliver is even faster. It is very difficult to get a picture of him these days as he is always on the go and is a busy boy getting into everything. While he is always on the move he is constantly chattering or singing/humming. He is a very happy little boy unless you try to take something that belongs to one of his big brothers away. You can see how much he loves his biggest brother and Mimi. It is not unusual to see him hugging Mimi and eagerly sticking his tongue out to her for kisses. His favorite song to hum is Barney and aside from his brothers, Woody and Buzz Lightyear are his best friends.
Oliver saw Dr Trotter yesterday for his well-check. He weighed in at 21lbs 14oz and measured 31.5 inches. As he chattered and was even singing in the office, Dr Trotter commented how nice it was to see such a happy child. He got one shot that dampened his spirits for a minute, but the nurse took care of that quickly with a package of McDonald's cookies and on we went!

Elton Won!


Two weeks ago, we went out to Applebee's for dinner on Family Night. The boys got to enter a drawing for a bicycle. Elton was determined he was going to win. The next Tuesday I got a phone call to let us know that he had indeed been drawn as the winner! This past Wednesday we were asked to come in so they could present him with the bike and have their balloon guy make the boys some balloons. Here is Elton with his new bike and some of the staff at Applebee's. Congratulations Elton!
