Ollie used to be the easy one. He was always so quiet, calm, and tolerant. But he is becoming more of a challenge these days. He is just so interested in the world around him and wants to touch everything and put it in his mouth or ear. And if he can't get to an object that he is fixated on, he arches his back, throws his whole body back, and screams. He has such an attitude now. He wants what he wants when he wants it. Oy!

Today Ollie and Mommy walked with Carol while Orion was at his OT appointment. The sun was actually shining so it was a nice walk.

After big bro went to school, Ollie got a bath and some naked play time. He seemed to like being naked. Then he enjoyed playing with his piano book. He seems to really like musical instruments. He must take after Mommy in that regard.

Anyway, I took some pictures of him and noticed his hair just keeps getting redder. It's cute.

3/3/08 - FINALLY FORWARD FACING IN CAR

It was a drizzly, rainy Monday but the silver lining was that Daddy was home! Yay!!! He returned from his big trip to California late Friday night and we were so glad to see him. This weekend Mommy got to catch up on some sleep and time away from the boys.

Then on Sunday night Daddy, Mommy, and Oliver went on a date night to a Korean restaurant in Lakewood called the Honey Pig. Then, on our drizzly Monday, we loaded up the boys and some packages and headed to Benson Lake.

This weekend was the first time that Ollie got to actually have his car seat facing forward and it was a real treat for him. He was all smiles. Although, he might always have been all smiles in his car seat and we just didn't know it because he was facing backward. He does tend to be a happy little camper in most situations.
