from this past weekend

Saturday

Well, our boy is getting so big and handsome! We went for a walk today and the LDS temple had such beautiful flowers we just had to take a picture. Ollie has his new fishy jammies on tonight and I couldn't resist taking a picture b/c he is so cute in them! We had a nice visit from Grandpa Ernie and Grandma Susan this past week. They liked to hold Oliver a lot which was nice for us b/c we could get some unpacking done. Not much else going on, just trying to get everything unpacked and put away this weekend. Miss you all!

We're all moved in to our new place. Well, except for a few boxes that haven't been unpacked yet. Here is a picture of our messy living room and John relaxing after a hard day of putting everything together. He starts his first day at EPG tomorrow!

Waking up on a Sunday morning.

I'm getting sleepy

and sleepier

and I'm out.

Oliver had his 2 month Dr's appointment yesterday. He weighed in at 11 pounds 4 ounces and is now 23 inches long. The doc said he looked great! He got 4 shots, 2 in each leg and was very good for the nurse. He was sleepy all afternoon but didn't fuss too much.
We're all moving to Salt Lake City this weekend and there is a lot of packing to still be done. We may be not have an internet connection for a little while. Grandpa Ernie and Grandma Susan are coming next Friday to visit and we are excited to see them!

Wednesday

Yesterday Ollie was 6 weeks old. He wore his new outfit from Grammie Trish and was told how handsome he was by Dr Huggins. I think he knows how handsome he is. He has been sleeping much better through the night these days. I think we could almost say he has a night schedule... He was very excited to meet a bunch of family members this past weekend although he was a little bit overwhelmed. So many cousins! He did very good on the airplane and his mom was proud of him. He can't wait to see them all again in August for Uncle Dan's wedding. Grandpa Earl is doing much better after the open heart surgery last Thursday. He's back at home and taking it one day at a time...

Oliver loves his new camo outfit from Grandpa Ernie. We had a hard time finding him when he fell asleep near our forest of plants in the dining room. It's a good thing he had those black socks on!

Ollie on a Monday.

I don't care what you think about my dinosaur jammies, I'm not taking em' off!

Oliver has been amazing over the past few days! He's been sleeping better at night, he smiles all the time (at least when he's filling the diaper), and his eyes are getting much better as he loves to watch his mom work on her juggling routine in front of the fire place. We're all feeling much more rested and I think we may be getting the hang of this parenting thing!

He'll be 5 weeks tomorrow and if I haven't said it enough already, he's just growing so fast!

Staring at mom (post juggle).

Muhammad Ollie? (Ignore that they're actually red socks on his hands)

Thanks for the new flushable diapers Aunt Kara! Trying to save the planet one dirty diaper at a time... I think dad put it on backwards though.

Ahhh... A Smile!

4 Weeks Old

He's growing so FAST!! Our arms arm getting much stronger from toting him around and we'll probably be ready for a arm wrestling match if there are any challengers out there...
