Order, order, order

Ollie had his 18 month checkup today. It's a little late since he will be 19 months in a week or so, but we tried to make it for break last week but that didn't work out. He weighs just over 25 lbs! Daddy took him (Mommy hates those shots and he definitely knows they are coming now!) and they stopped at Golf Galaxy on their way there. I'm not sure if many of you know, but Ollie absolutely loves to line things up. He does it with all kinds of stuff, his animals, his bowls, cups, you name it. Well, William turned around in the store and he was lining up golf grips! Too funny!

Outlets

Last Friday we met my friend, Sondra and her daughter, Lela at the Outlets. She is such a cutie pie..of course Ollie loved her. I was hoping to find the outfit Ollie wore home from the hosptial so I could get another one, but no such luck. While we were looking in Carters we saw Aly and Willy! It was so random, but great too!

Fish..

We have been working on getting the attic (AKA..new spare bedroom) ready so we can move Ollie into his new Big Boy Room! Part of his new addition is the fish tank that was downstairs. Yes, we did try to kill the fish before so we could get rid of it, but.....since we watch Finding Nemo at least once a day, we thought it would be better suited in his new room. He loved going to the fish store and seeing all of the fish. Hopefully we can get his room done by next weekend!

P.S. We went to the outlets on Friday and met my friend, Sondra and her daughter Lela, but those pics are on the regular camera and we need Daddy's computer for that. So, those will be coming soon!

Zoo

This was supposed to be with the other post....oops!

Zoo Again!

It was a beautiful day so daddy came home early so we could go to the zoo. Ollie loves it there so we decided to get a family membership so we could pop in and out all year long! Plus, we thought Grandmas/Grandpas/aunts could take him this summer when they come and stay with us! His latest favorite book is Polar Bear Polar Bear What Do You Hear? which is full of animals, including flamingos so he was excited to see them. I don't know if you can tell but he is wearing his new sandals, which he DID NOT want to wear. Luckily, once we got there he was so distracted by the animals, he was ok with them :)

Papa

People have been asking how big I am and this is actually the first belly shot I have taken with this pregnancy. With Ollie, i took one every couple of weeks! I measured 31 weeks when I was at the doctor's office today (I'm only 25 wks) so I am a little nervous of what I'll look like at the end! My dad came up last night and watched Ollie while I was at my appointment today. Ollie liked playing with Papa. The pic of them together is when we went to lunch. Papa learned first hand that he can be a little escape artist! The pic of Ollie with his mouth open is one I have been trying to get for a while but he will never do it for me when I have the camera. Whenever he gets excited about something (like when his show is on tv) he does this and it is the cutest thing. I was outside the window and daddy was able to snap a quick one of him. We are having a fun vacation..we may hit the zoo tomorrow. P.S. Doesn't he look handsome in his new shirt? Aunt Jamie got it for him....Can't believe our little guy can wear a 2t!

Weekend Fun!

My friend, Barb, has been watching her granddaughter, Gabriella, since Tuesday night. She had us over for a little play date yesterday. I was a little worried since he had been cranky, but it worked out ok. Here are a couple of shots of the kids. Gabriella is crawling so Ollie was chasing her..she wasn't much of a fan of that. We tried to get a group shot, but Ollie was so tired by then he boycotted. Luckily, either a tooth popped through or the pressure is gone because he slept all night last night...and he was a back to his happy self. Thank God! I was cleaning a little today and found the magnetic letters and words I had saved. Ollie loved putting them on the cookie tray and it was a new way for us to work on colors and letters! I am on Spring Break tomorrow so we are looking forward to some quality Mommy and Ollie time!
