TEN


Today Oliver is 10 months old!  While it's been a long 10 months it's just crazy to think he is almost 1!  Time really does fly by.  It seems to go by so much faster when you have kids.  So what's new with the little man?

- He has 4 teeth fully in & 2 that just erupted through the gum. 
- On the plane ride to KY/WV he started shaking his head no (more like his whole body).  Maybe this was in effort to make sure all those people knew you are a boy and are just very pretty.  ;o)
- Also on our trip he started to wave.  First time was to my cousin Craig as he was headed to bed.  After that his Great Papa among others got to enjoy that cute little full arm wave.
- As I mentioned in the previous clip he is now taking steps with his walker.  Still not walking along furniture yet but is definitely a climber!  This one may be getting a crib tent!
- He is definitely our eater and will eat anything you give him.  It's been great to start making one meal and watch him explore new foods. 
- Thankfully our trip back east didn't distrupt his routine at home for sleeping in his crib at night.  However, naps still are not happening solo.  We still have to hold him to get him to nap or there is a lot of tears, vomit...you name it.  Not fun, but this to shall pass.  I'm hopeful this will change soon.
- Last night he enjoyed his first concert.  We took the boys to Taj Mahal at the Woodland Park Zoo.  Such a perfect environment for families to enjoy live shows in a picnic style event.  Highly recommend it.
- His love for his big brother continues to be like nothing I have ever witnessed in my life.  It's truly a beautiful thing.  I often catch myself smiling as I watch them share laughs and special little conversations. 

Little Olie you continue to bring so much light into our lives.  Your colorful personality keeps us on our toes and our hearts filled with so much love.  We love you bigger than the sky and cannot wait for what the world has in store for you.
