Ok guys, It is Mamma Brooke here. Long time, no posts...
Mr. Man is getting used to the boring life without Grandmas. He doesn't have any more excuses to skip any naps....Mom is boring.
I will say that he is growing fast. I just put him in some 9 month "Little Me" outfits 2 weeks ago, and they are pulling at his feet. His pants last a lot longer than the 1 piece onsie with footies, but those onsies are an essential part of his daily routine! Oh, the drama of baby life!
Oliver has been venturing out to take many walks in the good old stroller. However, he enjoys them much more when we go after 7 p.m. when it isn't so hot outside. Lately, he hasn't been outside much with the exception of the back porch, because it is so miserably muggy outside. They said that the heat index is 100, which is too hot for baby Oliver. He very quickly turns into Mr. Grumps in hot weather...The summer should be interesting.
He started putting his hand on the bottle with Grandma C. As of last night, he put both hands on the bottle the whole time. It was pretty cute. He has been holding his own weight for awhile now, but he started taking 5 or so steps when he was held up with Adam a few nights ago. He wants to walk...Hmmm, can I delay that a few more months please? Oh say, when he is sleeping through the night...It's got to be a give and take relationship here! Just kidding...The sooner he develops the better...and the more excercise mom gets.
His wrists, thighs and tummy are getting pretty chunky, but not as chunky as Adam was at this age. His cheeks were priceless! I weighed him this morning and he is weighing in at a whopping 15.5 lbs. He is getting heavy. Sculpted arms, here I come...I better take advantage of my new built in workout.
Oliver's voice is getting louder. He is making sounds of all varieties. He is definitely interacting more. He will smile the moment anyone talks to him or makes eye contant.
Well, that's it for now. A big thank you to Grandma C for coming down and helping with Baby O!
