Happy birthday, Oliver!!
well, happy one-day-early-birthday!
This little man is wonderful! He's been such a good baby (for the most part). He doesn't really say any words yet, just dadadadadadada, and occasionally, mamamamamamamamma. He can sign "more" and "all done", but not really with any consistency. This past week, he's started folding his arms any time we say, "Time for prayer!" It is the cutest!
Oliver has a very chill demeanor, usually. Obviously, he's not a perfect angel all the time, but for the most part, unless he's tired or hungry, he's perfectly content. Sometimes he'll sit and play in the floor by himself for like an hour at a time. It's kind of awesome.
He'll eat pretty much anything he can put in his own mouth. He HATES to be fed by other people. His favorite foods right now are cheese, cottage cheese, grapes, and tomatoes.
He has recently started to love reading books! Finally! Up until a couple of weeks ago, he had NEVER sat still through an entire story, but now he loves it! Especially when Cecily "reads" him the books that she has memorized (which is a very surprising number... this girl remembers everything!)
Oliver loves people. Seriously, anyone. I'm a little worried, because he has zero stranger-danger instinct. I guess Cecily stole it all and there was none left for him. He took his first steps earlier this week, not towards me, Jonathan, or even Cecily, but towards Miss Sarah, the lady who does story times at the library. He loves her! He has frequently abandoned me at church and story time to crawl into random people's laps.
That's our little man in a nutshell! We love love love him!
