Mountain Adventure

Oliver out working, to the left of him is the arroyo toad.
(Oliver was working in his jeans and his boots!)

Oliver woke up this morning and called for Mommy. He screamed when she walked in, her sleepy hair scared him! (Mommy thinks it looked a little bit like snakes....) Mommy laid down on the sleeping bag and there was dirt all over it! She cuddled with Oliver and listened to him as he told her about his late night mountain adventure the night before.

Oliver and Daddy went to the El Capitan Reserve past Ramona. They were looking for arroyo toads and they found some! Oliver told Mommy that they hiked and that they saw a coyote and heard some frogs (he gave her the sound effects and all!) They got home past 11:00, so both were sleepy (Daddy fell asleep on the sleeping bag- thats why there was dirt!).

Daddy said he had to carry Oliver the whole way, it was dark so a little scary. They crossed a river, both on foot and in the car. They took measurements and pictures together and had a great time. Oliver was very proud of himself for being such a big boy- he really enjoys working with Daddy in the mountains and outside of our house!

Today we had a together day. Oliver had a big tantrum in the morning which made it difficult for us to get to Amanda's house for her 30th birthday (Happy Birthday), Oliver recovered and we had a day of cleaning his room, playing at the Y for a little bit, and visiting Grammie, Aunt Jess, and Aunt Ali. In the afternoon Oliver rested- we also went to the library to pick up a new fire truck movie- played with Daddy outside and then we went to FroYo. We had a nice day together.
