A Little About Oliver

Oliver is 2 years old now.  We wondered for a long time when he would start talking.  And now he talks all the time.  He loves playing with Madeline.  He loves Cars, the toys and the movie.  He makes the cutest sounds when he makes them go, "booden booden booden" and stop, "eeerr ch".  

 He likes to talk in a growly voice.  He loves to make us laugh.  He will do something over and over if he finds out it makes us laugh.  This might include running into walls, banging his head on the table or making funny noises.  

He loves his blankie and baba.  He has to have the taggies on his blankie to go to sleep.  If he is sad or tired, his blankie will make it much better.  If he gets hurt, a kiss from mommy will make it all better.  

He does great somersaults and likes jumping on the trampoline with Madeline.  He loves to drive his little red cozy coupe in the driveway.  He is usually very polite and says "please" and "oh thank you, mommy".  He prays for our food at dinner time now, "Thank you for aaaaaahhh (all) our food, AAAAAAmen"

He takes his shoes and socks off every time we get in the car.  He likes to torture his sister by doing stuff to her that she doesn't like.  Like spitting at her or knocking down her towers.  But, he also loves to give her hugs and kisses before bed at night.  And for the majority of the time, they get along great.    

He loves Lucy.  He loves to make her laugh and smile by playing peek a boo or tickling her.  He is constantly telling her to not eat things and will take all of her toys out of her mouth.

 He still sleeps in his crib with a crib tent.  But, we are probably going to move to a big boy bed in the next few months.  We will see how that goes.  He is a great sleeper and still takes 3 hour naps most afternoons and sleeps for 11-12 hours at night.  

He is all boy. And we love him to pieces.
