Art Splash

We had a nice day.  Oliver had fun spending some time in the morning with Grammie and Aunt Jess, while Mommy took a Y break.  Afterwards we went to a little street fair in Carlsbad called Art Splash!  Mommy saw the sign for it on Rancho Santa Fe Rd and decided we should go check it out!  It was pretty cool.  

We had a nice rest of the day together.  We did some errands and came home to rest.  Well, Mommy wanted to rest, but Oliver wouldn't really let her.  He probably gets the not slowing down thing from Mommy.  Oh well.  Happy Saturday!

Oliver is off with his Daddy in the morning for the next week.  Mommy will miss him.

Art Splash!

Neat surfboard signs!

Artists working on a sand sculpture.

Another really awesome sand sculpture.

He wanted to go in and play with the sand.  Mommy

told him he can make a sculpture at home!

Little art street fair.

Lots of cool, cool chalk art!

Mommy loved the artist's seat!

Froggy?

Oliver thought the art was pretty neat too!

He devoured his hot dog and ate a couple of chips.

Art Splash- It is still going on tomorrow!  It is on Amada

Dr. which is above the flower fields.

Oliver is super into band aids right now.

Guess who we saw there?  Grandma and her friend.

Grandma giving Oliver a nice hug.

Waiting in line for a balloon.

He asked for a dog, then a monkey, then a

sword, then a dog, then finally settled on a sword.

Sword making.

Mr. O with his sword.

Graffiti art.

Mommy loves this whimsical piece of art.

Mommy wanted to make a sun catcher.

Oliver didn't really want to, he wanted to watch the

girl on the pogo stick!

Mommy colored a peacock. 

Rock Balancing.  (Mommy likes balancing

things.)  She is getting good at it.  

Hula Hoops!

Sand Sculpture again!

So Cute!

With his sword on the way to the car.

He was kind of in and out of a pouty 

mood.  It kind of makes Mommy tired

when he does that!  

We stopped by Jimbos on the way home.

Mommy read some of the Far Side comics

that she hasn't read yet.  

More comics.  (Mommy needs a good laugh.)

Oliver at Jimbos.  Right after this he ran

out of gas and laid on the floor.  Sometimes

it is cute when he is a car, sometimes its

not so cute.  At least he has an awesome

imagination!  

Worms, Tracks, Stickers, and Rain

We had a busy Friday with our daycare babies.  Oliver is learning how to whisper, Mommy likes that!

Happy Friday!

We decided we needed to check on the worm farm 

that Amanda brought Mommy last week....

Oliver helped take off the lid...

Mommy stirred up the dirt...

With a little help from a baby hand.  We didn't see any worms

though.  We will add some to the farm once we start finding

them again in our yard.

Shhh...don't tell Oliver or the babies.  Mommy found

some worms but they were fried!  Most likely a combination

of Mommy and Amanda's care.  Oops!  

Oliver made a race track in the sand.

He wore his old helmet that doesn't fit his head

anymore.  It was kind of silly looking.  (Mommy

kind of wonders if there would be any good

SNL skits to compare his helmet too...)  He

knew he looked silly and was loving it!

Working on a sticker collage!

We loved the afternoon thunderstorm!  Oliver put on his rain jacket,

rain boots and used his spray bottle to find "bad guys" in the yard!

Mommy's feral kitty cat.  She hasn't started feeding

it yet, she think she will.  (She may invite it in soon too,

meow.)  She thinks it might kind of make a nice

addition to our home.  Maybe.

Cute sitting kitty witty.  

Oil Change

Oliver had an awesome day at preschool.  Mommy picked him up after school and we had some errands to run.  First on our list was an oil change.  Oliver loves going to get our cars oil changed!  

He walked into this Jiffy Lubes waiting room and did

not like the smell it was kind of funny!  

He really wanted to go outside!  (This is kind of

how Mommy was feeling too...especially since

this was the second oil place we went too after 

preschool.  The first one tried to tell Mommy

she needed synthetic oil...ugh.)  It should not

be that hard to get a good oil change.  

We sat outside.  For now we will only go to Jiffy Lube.

At least until Oliver learns how to change oil on

real cars.  He is doing a pretty good job on people

and his bucket of cars.  

Tired Oliver watching the oil garage.

Our Adventure Subaru.  (Mommy feels

better about our car now...)  Oil changes are nice.

Donut Wednesday

Donut Wednesday!  We love Wednesdays!

Looking for his donut.

A pile of fresh donut holes.  Yum.

He found it!

Oliver's Donut.

Mommy's donut hole.

Eating yums.

Mommy's decaf coffee.  (She thinks it 

may have been caffeinated today...)

We saw some cute birds.  

We had a nice day!

Happy happy Wednesday!
