Happy Halloween!

Oliver had an amazing first Halloween. He was a race car driver and we were his crew (Daddy was his pit crew and Mommy was his trophy/flag girl). We had a great time with the King family, Meme, and Poppy!



All dressed up and ready to go!

Swinging at the park

There is a park close to our house and Oliver loves to swing. The video below is his very first time in a swing and as you can tell he enjoyed it so we go back all the time!

Action packed weekend with Nana

We had an action packed weekend when Nana came to visit filled with many "firsts" for Oliver.


Oliver went to his first dog show and got to see Nana show her dog Chatty.



We had such an awesome time with the Chamness family at the UW/Stanford football game. He loved playing with Sarah and Natalie and even took a nap during the game.

Pumpkin Fun!

I love being a parent for many reasons and one of them is you have an excuse to do all the fun activities during the holidays. I haven't carved a pumpkin in around 10 years, so I was very excited to carve pumpkins with Oliver!!


Meme went with us to the pumpkin patch were we had fun on the tea cup ride!


We picked out a pumpkin just the right size for Oliver.



Oliver kept us company while carving....... and here are the finished products!

Here is a video of Oliver now that he's gotten the hang of bouncing around. It's a lot of fun for everyone - him bouncing and us watching.

This is how I eat!!

Oliver started a little rice cereal last week. He seems to enjoy it.

He keeps most of the cereal where it belongs.

Until of course it's time to sneeze then he's a bit more messy.

Here's a video of the little man doing his thing.

Busy day - Ollie's Baptism and Mommy's Birthday

During our trip to Washington we also had Oliver baptized. He was baptized at Holy Spirit Lutheran Church where Lindsey grew up and many family events have occurred. The baptism was on Lindsey's birthday - October 9th!

Oliver did a great job during the baptism. It was also special that Pastor Mike is the one who baptized him.

I can talk with Dolphins


Lately, Oliver has been squealing more than talking, so we had to capture it on video. Maybe he thinks he is a dolphin?? Or, a honey badger?? :)
