Sunday

We had a rainy Sunday and we didn't do too much with it. We went to church this morning and then got groceries. We also stopped at Toys R Us and picked up swing for Oliver. We plan to put hooks in our porch so that he can swing there, even on rainy days, and the we will figure out something so he can use it in the backyard too. Eric stayed busy working on his paper and Oliver had fun playing with toys and reading books. Eric is on spring break this week so his schedule will be a little different- no classes which he is excited about.
Have a great week everyone!

Pajama Time

Go Panthers!! Oliver was getting to bed a little later than usual and so putting pajamas on was quite the fiasco. When he gets tired, he thinks pretty much everything is hilarious. He was laughing at everything and ticklish to the touch tonight. Have a good night!

Happy Friday!

Oliver and myself shortly after his nap this afternoon.

We ran a few errands after Eric got home this afternoon and one stop was ToysRUs. Just past the checkouts, they had a big selection of Power Wheels that Oliver desperately wanted to get in and drive and we were mean and wouldn't let him. As we were exiting the store, they had the little quarter machines with trinkets and things and they also had a car that you put your 50 cents in and then you got go for a ride. So we figured we would let Oliver do that. He loved it as we thought he would. Here are a few snapshots of him in the car and a little video of his ride.

Happy Friday!

A few weeks ago, we were watching Planet Earth about the oceans. Oliver saw the fish on tv and thought they were pretty awesome. I wish we would have caught his first reaction, but this gives you an idea of what he thought of it.

We had another very nice day here. Oliver and I went to our MOPS group in the morning. After nap, Oliver wasn't feeling well again- I guess this bug is holding on for a little while longer. Hopefully a good night's sleep will help him and a restful day at home tomorrow and he will be all better.

Some exciting news today- my niece Jill and her husband Steve had their first baby today. Ethan Aaron Scanlan was born and from the pictures I have seen, he looks pretty adorable. Congrats Jill & Steve! We can't wait to meet him!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Oliver and Andrew walked around holding hands in their green shirts today.

We tried out the bike carrier for a little trek this afternoon. It worked very well and I think Oliver liked it. After trying that out, we for a walk. It was another beautiful 60 degree day. Oliver played outside a lot today. He used sidewalk chalk for the first time and had a lot of fun drawing with it.

Have a good night!

Tuesday!

I wanted to get a few "good" pictures of Oliver today so I threw a sheet up as a background and tried to get some. Some turned out pretty good, but I learned that having Eric home when I want to do that would probably be helpful. :)

Grandma & Grandpa Shook brought a doctor kit out for Oliver when they visited last weekend. Oliver has a lot of fun with it. He especially likes the stethoscope and the blood pressure cuff.

We went out for a walk around the park this afternoon. While we were out there, I let Oliver and the little boy I watch run around for a bit. Oliver wouldn't leave the side of the stroller, he just played with the wheels or pushed it around. When we got back to our house, we played in the backyard. It was a beautiful day! 61 degrees! We are expecting a few more days of that this week.

Monday

Oliver and I spent the day at home. He seems to be feeling better today. He slept a lot last night- 7:30pm to 9:00am! We played upstairs for awhile. He had fun playing with blocks. Eric had a busy day at work and a seminar after working so he got home a little later than usual. I guess we were boring people today- maybe tomorrow will be more exciting and I will get the camera out :)
