Ollie Claps!

This is the adorable smile we get to wake up to every morning. Ollie's started waking up earlier and earlier. He just sits in his crib talking and talking...and talking. It's so sweet. It makes sharing a bedroom very interesting--and those early mornings not quite so bad!

Our little pudgeball dressed and ready for church. So handsome.

Ollie LOVES to clap. (And, we love it, too!) He claps while he's eating, while riding in the car, when we say goodmorning to the bus driver, when Mama or Daddy gets home--seems like just about anytime is a good time for clapping!

Ollie's Buddy

Our friend, Sean, came over to play with Ollie while Mama was sick. He was such a big help! And, Ollie always loves seeing him!

Apparently, Ollie & Sean share a similar sense of style.

Mischievous Ollie.

Ollie's a hockey fan--just like Daddy!

Don't make me laugh while I'm eating!

Ten Month Old Ollie

For quite a while now, whenever we put finger food in front of Ollie, all he would he is play with it, squish it, throw it--but not eat it. Of course, he always got very excited when we put it in his mouth for him, but he had absolutely no interest in doing it for himself...until now!

Ollie loves driving around with his Mystery Machine!

Daddy's Birthday!

Happy 29th Birthday, Daddy!

Our sweet little giggler thinks it's SO funny when Daddy tickles his toes!

Jibber Jabber

Our little guy just jibber jabbers away most of the day. It's so cute. Sometimes, we think we actually understand what he's saying!

Ollie thinks the computer is so cool--especially when he gets to touch it!

Banana Baby

I love Ollie's hair in this picture. He had just gotten up from a nap. Also, he's pretty proud of himself for finding the remote control and Daddy's phone, both of which try to keep hidden. Sneaky Ollie!

Ollie's so peaceful sitting by the bedroom window. He likes to watch the cars and people go by but gets especially excited when he sees doggies. He likes to wave out the window whenever he watches Mama go to school or Daddy go to work.

Ollie tries real bananas for the first time. He started off tentative, but now he loves them (and strawberries)!
