Oliver is growing up so fast!!! Do I say that every month? I wish we could just freeze time and enjoy this cuteness a little bit longer before the temper tantrums really arrive.
He wants to help, which is cute. And has been a challenge as I/we come up with things for him to do. He likes putting his clothes in the laundry hamper when we get ready for bed and also LOVES playing with the kervish, mop, and dustbuster in the kitchen.
What a parrot! Lots & lots of imitating/mimicking going on in this house.
We are trying to encourage lots of "Big Boy" actions - we need to carry him less. So, plenty of fights about how he is getting up & down the steps when we don't want to carry him.
Oliver loves music. We have the ipod on all the time in the kitchen and I created a mix which is half kiddie songs and half family-friendly songs that we like. His favorite song is Pumped up Kicks (Foster the Peole), which is sometimes played more than 5 times in a given day! He also likes Here Comes the Sun (Beatles) and Our House (Madness). He recognizes the songs just a couple of chords in and knows when to sing "house" and "sun", which is pretty funny.
As my recent post mentioned, Hide & Seek is a big hit lately. He also contines to enjoy throwing balls down the basement steps, playing Fuss with Daddy, and is also very much into stickers and coloring.
Oliver is not a good sharer - definitely something we need to work on.
Have I mentioned that he likes to talk? A lot? He is talking from the moment he wakes up (singing in his crib before we get him) until the lights get turned off at night.
He has finally adjusted to daycare!!! Boy, did that take a long time!
