The Cutest Baby-Toddler


Picture from July- Padden Lake, WA- Oliver was sleeping

Oliver is so cute! I just love him! He went to daycare today and had so much fun. He slept for 2 hours and when I got there he was eating with his friend Sky and then playing hide and go seek. He would run into the other room and hide from Sky, we could hear Oliver squealing with laughter in the other room and then Sky would go look for Oliver. He is so funny! We had a nice day, we are ready for Friday! Yeah!
I couldn't get a cute pic of Oliver today....so I am posting an old picture....

Moon


Sleeping Little Man

Today Mama had to go to work, so Oliver got to go to daycare. He had fun! He didn't get upset when Mama left, yeah! And he slept for 2 hours, even better! He was having fun playing with his friends when I picked him up. When we got home we went for a run to Henry's to pick up a few grocieries. Then we headed home in the dark, with the moon shining.


Oliver played with Daddy, ate dinner, and then Grandma gave him a nice warm bath in the kitchen sink. Afterwards he fell asleep really fast.

Election Day and Rain


Oliver all cozy on our rainy day run...



Oliver's 1st Election!

Today was a great day! Oliver and I went for a run in the rain this morning! It was perfect, because I have been yearning for Washington weather lately! I got completely soaked and Oliver was protected in his stroller with the rain cover and his new car slippers!

After we came home we got ready and Oliver helped me vote! He was very helpful and respectful of the other voters.

After we cast our ballot we went to feed Patches and then Oliver helped me at my doctors appointment. He then took a wonderful 2 1/2 hour nap! Then he ate his yummo dinner and we went to swim class! He is loving it! Jumping in the water, saying three (he skips one and two), and taking a shower afterwards, he loves it all!

Full Day


Sleeping Boys

Oliver had a great day! He woke up early, still getting used to the time change. We went running, Ranger's paw is still healing so he couldn't come. Then we went to swim class, lots of new babies in our class, yeah!!! We did some errands afterwards, he loves Costco! Then we came home and hung out, he took a nice nap and then he got to play at Stephanie's for an hour! (Mama had a meeting at work, there is no such thing as a part-time teacher!) He was laughing his head off at Stephanie's 8 year old daughter when I cam to pick him up! He loves to play!
After I picked him up we met Aunt Katy and went for a short walk. He loves his Aunt Katy! He fell asleep on the way home! We had a great day!

Rainy Day


Rain at the beach in the morning


Eating his ice cream!


Oliver had a great day. We went for a long, long run this morning. When we got home Oliver played with Daddy. Then we all went to return Daddy's racing bike and go to the street fair in Carlsbad. We stopped at Souplantation after Oliver had a little nap. Oliver loved eating his food and his little ice cream cone. After we went to the street fair for a little bit. It was a big fair and it was fun seeing everything. It rained a little bit while we were there.

When we got home, Oliver and Daddy went to Uncle Joey's for a little bit and saw the gang there! Then they came home and Mama fed Oliver his yummy dinner then he did yard work with Daddy, while Mama went and played in her soccer game. Oliver said moon tonite when he was working with Daddy.

**Oliver's great grandma passed away in her sleep last night. He didn't have a chance to meet her, but I will be sure to tell him a lot about her. I will miss her.***

Laughter

Oliver was in a really good mood today! He laughed a lot! When we went for a run this morning he was laughing a lot! I'm not sure at what, maybe he was thinking about last night! We hung out at home for a long time and then went over to Grammie's house, where we both napped. We saw Chad and Aunt Jess and then went to Borders for a little while. When we pulled up to the bookstore, Oliver started laughing! He loves to go to the bookstore! (He always laughs when we pull in to the library parking lot too!)

When we got home, Oliver got to see his Daddy! Daddy was in a 55 mile bike road race called Tour de Julian! He did well, had a lot of fun with his friend, tasted wine afterwards! Oliver loved seeing his Daddy, he ate his dinner and then went to sleep.

Happy Halloween! Oliver had a great time going to the Vons center to trick or treat by Uncle Joeys! We took a little break and then went to some houses. Oliver got tired on the 2nd round! But we had so much fun! Oliver was a little monkey, his costume got a little warm, so we took his top off! He had two bananas, a crazy uncle, a dog, and plain clothes person (Daddy/Kalyn) as his escorts! We had a great Halloween!!!!

Pumpkin Patch


Practicing the wheelbarrow


Checking out the pumpkins

He likes how the pumpkins feel.

Oliver loves pumpkins. Tonite we went to the pumpkin patch down the street. Oliver played with the wheelbarrow, pumpkins, and he went down the giant blow up slide with Daddy. They went down the slide about 20 times, they had so much fun. Oliver is such a little daredevil! He also could spot me out down below and would wave and say Mama. Everyday, he is showing how much he likes getting into things and being a little crazy daredevil, sometimes it scares me!

Slippers, Bike and Daddy


Riding on his new tricycle with Daddy


Trying it out on his own, he can't reach the pedals yet!

Today Oliver and I woke up early. We fed Ranger first thing so he would be ready to run with us! Oliver and I then got ready and ran a short run with our best friend. Then we rushed to the pool! Oliver says a new word everyday and today it was pool! He loves jumping in the pool after he practices climbing out! He has a hug smile on his face when he does it! He also loves going under the water! We signed up for classes for next month, it is so much fun!
After the Y, we went to get some slippers for Mama and a notebook for Daddy at Target. Oliver found some slippers he liked, they are like his Lightening McQueen car! He looked at them and said car. If one came off today he would bring it to me and have me help him put it back on! After Target we went and fed Patches and hung out with her for awhile. Then we went to the library. He loves coloring and sitting in the seats. We read a few pages of a book that had babies in it!
When we got hom we took a nice nap and then Oliver and Daddy played like crazy! Oliver loves to play with his Daddy! After Oliver's dinner, Uncle Joey and Kalyn came over. Oliver showed them his new helmet and his car slippers!

Another Great Day

Oliver showing off tricks with his spoon. He
kept doing it because Mama and Grandma
were laughing at him. He is a bit of a comedian.

Today was fun! We went for a long run with Ranger in the morning! Then we came home and Oliver played with Daddy for awhile. Daddy told Oliver all about his adventures the night before! It sounded like fun! Later Oliver and I made our way to Aunt Jessica's to visit Patches and make pumpkin bars again!!! (This time we are trying to change the recipe to make them whole wheat and healthier, we are on the right track!)

We went for a nice walk in the Carlsbad village, and Oliver was a little cuddler in the afternoon! We had fun together today!

**Old pictures, from last weekend and the weekend before. Grandma had some nice pictures on her camera!***
