Olivers Updates

Miss Tinley hanging out in the pack and play…I love to make her giggle.

Baby Hunter eating dinner with Uncle Cory.

Mommy hanging out on the boat with baby Hunter…I had to come sit with mommy too, wasn’t about to let her hold him all by herself! His toes were so cute I couldn’t stop playing with them and then I accidently woke him up.

All the big boys making yummy salmon dinner. I can’t wait to learn to cook like this one day!

Uncle Seth and I hangin’ on the boat, I’m learning to drive!

Watching the water with my best friend!

Auntie Stacey and I went on a hike to pick flowers for mommy.

Look what I got you Mommy! Mommy was super excited to get such a fantastic bunch of flowers, thanks Auntie Stacey for your help!

Look close and you can see that I’m holding a Bass in my hand! I’m fearless!

My cool Uncle Seth!

Daddy wake boarding, right before he did a belly flop into the water and hurt himself. Way to go Daddy!

Brock and his stick.

Look, I caught a fish! (Thanks Jacob for getting it for me, I can’t wait to actually go fishing and catch my own fish, so cool!)

Enjoying the view on the way to Elkin’s for music and Huckleberry frozen drinks.

Throw it to me mommy!

Auntie Stacey and her tiny baby bump.

Stacey, Cory & Tinley – I love them all!

Look at our belly’s! Daddy…we need to work on that one!

The whole group!

I love these babies!

Jacob is trying to teach my how to skip rocks in the water. I really liked meeting him!

When I eat I have to move my chair 500 times before I find a good spot.

We passed a fire on the way home.

This was the damage after 3 days (caused my lightening), they still had fire crews out because it kept lighting back up.

Time to stop for a potty break! I didn’t really like sitting on the potty and getting rained on so I had to go use the trailer…much more relaxing.

Thanks Auntie Stacey & Uncle Seth for inviting us this year, I hope we get an invite back next year because I had so much fun! I love spending time with family and hangin’ in the great outdoors!

Last week I went on a camping vacation to Priest Lake…and despite that everyone doubted my mommy that I could figure out how to use the toilet…I did! I only had 4 accidents the entire time and that was really mommy & daddy’s fault for not checking in with me. While I know I have to pee sometimes I’m just way to busy playing to say anything. I also woke up with a dry pull-up every morning and made sure to use the potty before I wet it, whooo hooo! Mommy and Daddy are so proud of me and I’m pretty excited to be wearing my big boy Spiderman, Cars & Lego undies. I’m turning in to such a big boy!

I have started Little Thumpers soccer camp.  Once a week we have “practice”, which is actually just goofing around on an indoor soccer field.  It is great fun!

Today we went down to the Museum of Flight, and watched NASA’s Super Guppy airplane deliver the Space Shuttle trainer.

While we waited, a 787 landed.

Some astronauts came to celebrate with us, and they flew themselves.  How cool is that?!

We went up to Samish Island for the weekend to see Dick, Cathy and everyone else. There were about 60+ people there! Amazing company, great friends and fantastic food.

A walk down to the beach

Pretty Rhodie!

Tides out, what can we find?

Snails

Starfish

Sea Anemone

Crabs!

Time for a BIG fire!

Me and one of my best buddies Carter

We even got to visit the Samish Island Fire Station

Checking out the outfit worn when going to a fire, that is some serious business!

Cam & Carter putting on the super heavy air tank

I’m not putting that thing on…you first daddy! Ok, I’ll try!

Checking out the cab of the fire truck with mommy

Uh, fun!

This is great! I need one of these!

Let’s go for a drive daddy!

Auntie Nee

Hey guys, that is dangerous!

Wait, you aren’t my daddy!

Turn it off!

We even got to check out the paramedic’s truck

Let’s go Cam!

Cathy taking everyone for a ride

Such a fun weekend, thanks for having us up! We love all of you!

Kind of dark, but you can see the tree goes up to the ceiling, above the built in shelf

My idea was to do owls but I really love the big brother little sister owl, sweet and simple

Full tree and fairly true color. Love the stuck on flowers that I did.

We took our traditional trip to Remlinger Farms, each year it gets better. This time Gramma Charyl came with us!

Hi Grandma Mina!

Happy mother’s day! I yuv you!

Howdy folks!

Going for a ride on Coconut

Mommy & me!

Wow, look at those tummies! That is my baby sister in there.

Daddy and his mommy

huh?!?  my funny faces

Blowing “wishes” (dandelions)

Riding the school bus, can’t wait to do this when I’m 5!

Taking mommy for a ride

I’m such a good driver, thanks for trusting me mommy!

After a long day of playing and walking it was time for ice cream, so yummy!

Time to get serious!

What’s that daddy? I don’t mind if I do!

Mommy had a great day watching me play, thanks Gramma for coming along!

Well, I must admit, I’m not the best at wearing my brace and shoes and night…they really annoy me when I sleep. So I beg mommy and daddy to take them off and it normally works because they are so tired they just want to sleep too! So, what happens when I don’t wear my shoes, you ask. My foot tightens up and I have to get a series of casts on!

The morning that I had it put on I was kind of sad, but by the time that I got to Miss Julia’s I realized it was pretty cool. Not to mention I got special treatment from everyone. i.e. “you have to be nice to Oliver, he has a cast on, no pushing or hitting him!” This cast thing could be cool! Not to mention I can sleep with it on much easier!

My first cast

Time to saw it off, and guess what…

It tickles!!!! Thanks mommy for holding my ears so it isn’t so loud.

Popping the top of the cast off, below is the special lining they put on so that it keeps my skin dry

Yuck, what is that smell? I had some stinky feet!

Time to put the last cast on. Here goes nothing!

It’s Green!!!

Thanks Dr. J!

At Echo Lake Church waiting for the egg hunt with Grandma

The Easter basket doesn’t go on your head? It fits pretty well mommy!

After the egg hunt at the church we had all our family over to the “moon house”. You should have seen the spread, I wasn’t super hungry but I hear it was tasty. Thanks everyone for coming, I love each and every one of you!

Egg!!!

Note from mom – After each egg Oliver would find he would open up and see what was inside, the egg hunt took a long time but he was one happy camper! He wanted to hunt for eggs at least a week afterwards.

Grandma Mina sent me a Valentine…look what I had in it!

Hairy toes and all! Mommy says I look just like daddy…especially those toenails!

Raaarrrrr….
