Our New Place!

Wow! That's a cute baby! I think watching him sleep is definitely on our top ten list.



 Now our little boy is 11 months! He is such a little boy now.







 So this is when he did this super fast roll and then zoomed off the bed headfirst. His first time falling off of the bed. Landed right on his head and boy did I feel bad. Poor sweetie.
 With all of the moving Oliver had been sleeping with us for about a month. And waking up 3-4 times a night. It was a bit fun at first, but by the end I couldn't wait for him to sleep in his own crib. Oliver was really missing it too. When we saw Baby Ruth's crib he didn't want to get out. It took only two nights of a little crying and now he sleeps straight through the night- a good 12 hours. And he has been going to sleep great. Wow, I love cribs!
 So here is the tour of the house. It's a full size house but only two bedrooms. There is an add-on, but it is locked, so we only get to use two bedrooms and one bathroom. It is fenced in and has a garden area in the back. Since now is the start of the growing season, I just planted some seeds and there are already a few popping up. Yay for my own garden!





This is our bedroom. All the furnishings are thanks to Dad and Mom.




 Oliver's room.
 He even has his own door to the outside!
 Lot's of wood! I feel like we are in a cabin every night.








 Eric's work station.


 We gave Oliver a new hair cut, but his hair is still too fine, so we chopped it off.

Our Own Little Beethoven

Well Oliver is crawling almost as fast as we can walk now, but his real exciting trick is that he can play the harmonica. I taught him how to blow a whistle. That turned into him blowing a pitch pipe, so I got him a harmonica as a present. Now the three objects just lay on the floor and he goes around blowing each in turn. It is really cute. He sure is developing a pair of lungs!

We have taken some really cute pictures the last few days, so here they are.

He doesn't do it as much anymore, but he loves to stick this duck in his mouth and crawl around.  We get some cute faces and some crazy ones!




 Standing up in his crib like always.





 Our little baby is growing up! And getting so long.

Look at these next pictures and tell me my baby is not a happy baby.



 Working on quilting Wendy's baby quilt. Boy my fingertips are hurting.

 Here is the quilt that I just finished to be Oliver's special blanket.


 This is the special picture for grandma. Doing the necessary horse training. Gotta be on the  horse lover side.
 Lately each morning and randomly he has been trying to whistle. He has been successful too. I don't think I learned to whistle until I was about 5.
 Always on his toes.
 Standing up everywhere.

And here are two cute videos. Don't skip out on watching them!
