Giggles!

Ollie LOVES wearing his rainboots. His favorite: jumping and stomping in puddles. He wears them whenever he can in the house...just so he can be ready for puddle jumping if it should start to rain.

Poof hair.

Despite having a little tummy bug last month, Ollie was in good spirits. Every once in a while, he'll come across a new word that gives him the giggles. Current giggle producing words: puke, shucks, shoot, cute, and success.

This is a game that Ollie and Daddy play during bath time that has come to be known as "Block It." It gets him to look up so we can wash his hair without getting soap or water in his eyes!

***Other news: Ollie is doing much better after our scare with MRSA. He has an appointment with his pediatric surgeon tomorrow.

A funny new phrase of his: "I know." Every once in a while, he'll respond with this. I still can't tell if her really understands what it means. An example from today: After he accurately pointed out where an ice cream shop is that we visited only once, over a month ago, I declared that he was better at directions than his mama...to which he replied, "I know!"

He's also developed an attachment to a stuffed elephant that our friend, Lindsay, gave him. Tonight, he must have given the "elf-a-dent" at least four hugs before finally agreeing to go to sleep.

In preparation for Father's Day, I asked Ollie what he would like to give his daddy. Ollie's response, "desitin." (Ollie calls medicine, "desitin," (they sound the same!) and taking his medicine three times a day for the past week has made it's mark. Apparently, Ollie thinks it's Daddy's turn to take his medicine!)
