I sit writing this in amazement as OIiver has just eaten some roasted vegetable lasagna for dinner!! He is somewhat picky and hardly ever touches veggies so I wasn't overly optimistic but he seemed to enjoy it. Maybe because we all sat together for dinner for a change??!!
It's been Easter crazy over the past week. Since last Saturday we have been to 4 different egg hunts of varying sizes!! After yesterday's mega hunt at a friend's house Oliver really seemed to get the hang of it so today we put some eggs in our garden and he managed to find them all (with some assistance!). Now he has enough sweets and chocolate to last a good while, especially since he got Easter baskets from us and Grandpa and Grandma. It was funny this morning because he was looking at the one from Grandpa and Grandma and there was a chocolate bunny in it and he couldn't get it opened fast enough. We were trying to get him to eat an ear but he went straight for the feet - and you'll see what he did to the candy duck in the picture below.....
The weather has really cheered up now so we've been able to get out with Scoop most afternoons. Oliver does really well and managed to walk about halfway yesterday - I only stopped to put him in the buggy because we reached the main road. Nanna Pan will remember that route from when she visited! Today we stopped at the playground nearby and Oliver had fun on the swings and slide. He now knows how to swing his legs around to sit on the slide before going down.
What else?? Oh, Oliver gave one his friends her first kiss this past week - so cute!! He tried to give Mikayla a kiss too but she wasn't paying attention to him so he gave up :) Lovely to see him trying though! And the other thing is that Oliver now hates his bath so for the past week or so he's been having a shower and that seems to work much better (although one of us normally goes in with him). And today Oliver actually stepped down our stairs and the ones at Grandpa and Grandma's with someone holding his hand. My baby is so grown up. I can hear him upstairs now reading with Daddy and doing lots of animal impressions!!
Well, I have loads of new pics and a couple of videos for you all so enjoy - and I'll try and update a bit quicker next time!!
Happy Easter :)
Egg hunting at Andrews Park last weekend - I was allowed to help Oliver as he was under 2yrs but I still struggled to fight my way through all the excited kids!
Hanging out with the ladies at a play date
Oliver no longer likes to eat banana if we cut it up for him - it's straight from the peel or nothing :)
Another egg hunt yesterday morning - so many eggs to find!
My Easter basket from Mummy and Daddy
Give me that chocolate duck - NOW!!
The chocolate bunny's good - but where is the duck??!!
Ha ha - off with your head ducky!!! Notice Scoop looking longingly....
Hunting yet more eggs in our garden today
Daddy helping me on our swing
Oliver wouldn't pose with his hoard of eggs so here's the next best thing :)
