Sunny weather at last!


This past weekend was the last weekend of winter and what beautiful weather we had. And today it is reaching 61F which is just amazing!! It's been so nice to get out and about with Oliver and Scoop. Oliver has had fun running around the garden and playing in his car and Scoop had a crazy time at the off lead area yesterday. This morning I took Oliver to Como Zoo (where we went on his birthday) and we had a picnic there. He pretty much ate a whole apple (not cut up!!) as you can see in the picture above! I am willing him to have a little nap now although he seems to have given up nap time over the past couple of days.

In fact, Oliver has turned into a typical toddler - he is crabby a lot, refuses most of the food we give him and has tantrums when we tell him off for something. And the nap thing of course! At least he still sleeps through the night which is a blessing. Of course he is sweeter than pie when he's around anyone else so no-one understands what I'm talking about, LOL!!! One thing I forgot to say last time was that we took Oliver for his second haircut when Granny Colleen was here but he cried the whole way through it this time. Obviously as much fun as going to the doctor's :)

But there are the fun things too of course. Oliver loves to play hide and seek although he likes Jon and I to do the hiding. We run around like mad things upstairs and jump out at him when he finds us :)) He squeals with delight when we do that!! And when we walked Scoop yesterday he discovered the fun he can have with puddles, i.e., standing in the middle of one and stomping up and down. So much fun :)) No new words that I can think of (Oliver is taking it all in rather than speaking a lot!) but he can do some awesome animal impressions: lion, elephant, dog, snake and duck! I'll have to try and get a video of them.

Here's a couple of new pics for you!


A new place to play - Mummy and Daddy's bathtub!
