Back to "Normal"

On Monday we went back to our "normal" schedule. On Monday and Tuesday Oliver stays home with Brent, which are his regular days off. Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday Oliver goes to "Noni" (our babysitter) during school hours. Then Saturday and Sunday he's at home again, when I get to spend all day with him. I must say it was hard leaving him this week after having 2 weeks straight of being a full-time Mom. He's just a great kid and is just amazing to be around. He is a constant reason to smile and remember the good things in life.

He is working on his new tricks constantly. Some of them are grabbing at things, rolling over from his belly to his back (which he's done about 10 times now), talking, laughing, and eating some solid foods. He's also growing like a weed! Though he still fits into most of his 3-6 month clothes, he's grown out of some and can fit into 6-9 month ones now. I am grateful daily for a friend, Jamie, who let us borrow stuff for him to wear. It has saved us tons of money and he looks cute, like a little man. Between her and Grammy, Oliver is stylin' and profilin'.
I stuck Oliver in the bed with Brent. Clones indeed! 

In his roll-over position, drooling with excitement and
contemplating whether he can do it again...
In his play gym squealing with joy! 
We didn't realize when we first put
these pants on him today that they
were too short. Guess they'll
have to go into the "retired clothing" stack, huh?

A happy baby indeed!
