Saturday

We had a busy fun Saturday!  We started off at Grammie and Grandpa's, Oliver got cozy with Grammie while Mommy was off for an early run!  

Then we checked out Mommy's old high school's track....

We were hoping that we could get access

to the field.

We could!  We slipped through.  Lots of others

were playing in there too!

We played pass back with some tennis balls a man

gave us!  Fun!

Oliver was a little bit excited!

This is what Mommy really came for!  She 

wants to do some exercises with the steps!

Oliver loved her idea!

Mommy practiced a few times, but had to stop herself.

Oliver tried it once too!

Then we ran the track!

Oliver thought he wanted to run around

4 times!  Mommy figured that would take

awhile with his pace.

He runs in little spurts!

We will be back soon!  Mommy is glad

we will be able to utilize the track and steps!

Then we were off for the library...

We checked out the biography section to look at

a book about Louis Sachar.  Oliver loves his 

Sideways School Series!

This book caught Mommy's eye!  Mommy

wishes she could be as creative as J.K Rowling!

We got some Louis goodies!

Then we were off for some more swimming...

The pool was a little cold today and we stayed

in a long time!  It was fun...

Because we got to swim with the Cunningham's

for a little bit!

Rain in the pool today!

The sound of rain from inside.

We love the rain but were glad to get in

the warm car after a long swim!

We came home to rest and watch an old baby friend...

And Oliver fell asleep watching the starry/doggy ceiling!

Grammie and Grandpa gave it to Oliver for Christmas!

We love it!

Swim

Aahhhh, we finally made it to the swimming pool!  It felt really nice and was very warm!  

Pretty Christmas lights are still up!

He was to afraid to get our swim bracelets.

For some reason he is scared of Missy!

Ready!

We were both a little nervous, 

its been awhile since we swam last!

Brrr!!!

We drove by our favorite Christmas house

on our way to Grammie and Grandpa's tonight!

We looked at everything for awhile, there is so much

to see there!

Hot Air Balloon.  

(Mommy spies Santa!

Goodnight Sweet Dreams!)

Donut Wednesday

Our Donut Shop is closed, so we got so we were prepared with some mini donuts that we shared with our daycare friends!  We are going to have a busy, rainy, fun day!!!  

Oliver's donuts!

He liked them!

Thank Heavens for 7-Eleven!

Yums!

Oliver is busy making projects!

(Mommy is busy thinking and working!)

Oliver's spider!

Oliver will be off with his Daddy around 6:00 this evening.  Mommy will see Oliver Friday for another fun together weekend!  

(Have a great day!)

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!  We had a wonderful day!

Santa must have been in a hurry!  The milk cup was 

turned over!  

Oliver went straight for his stocking!  

Santa had really pretty animal paper for 

Oliver's presents!  Mommy sanded and

painted the old Captain's Rocking Chair

for Oliver!

And Santa brought Oliver a cushion for it!

Teamwork!!!

Captain Oliver!

Santa brought Oliver another snow globe!

And a collection of Curious George things!

Oliver is going to give something to 

Mommy in her journal!  He said Mommy

isn't allowed to know what it is yet!

Suspense!

Oliver had Mommy go outside to check his forest!

Because Mommy gave him some birdies

and a nest!

Creative Oliver!

We rested and cleaned up a little before

we headed over to Grammie and Grandpas! 

We were greeted at the door by Grammie,

Aunt Jess, and Claire Baby!

Happiness!

Karate Kid Marathon!

Two Cuties checking out Mommy's Chair 

Collection!  Mommy adopted it from the 

Estate Sale she went to a while back,

and Grammie and Grandpa gave it to 

her for Christmas!!!

(Mommy really likes her collection! 

She has an idea for a shelf/display thing.)

She is going to sit on her thought for a bit though.  

Mommy's chair collection was popular!

Uncle Chad and Aunt Jess!!!

Claire slept through most of the present opening!

When she finally woke up, she got

to open her Princess push car!  

Rachel loved it!

Oliver loved his box, rope, and bungee cords

from Grammie and Grandpa!

He went upstairs and put it all to use!

Oliver wasn't so into his gift from Santa.

Oliver is working on making good choices 

with Mommy.  We will keep working on it Santa!

Cuteness!  Mommy took a cute video,

but it won't upload right now.

Our Christmas Picture!

Mommy had to lock her legs around him.

We ate a nice dinner!

On Coca Cola Plates again!

Someone slept through dinner!

And someone took a picture of himself with 

Mommy's camera!

Aunts and a sweet baby!

(Mommy likes the details in this picture...)

Smiling Girls!!!

Wreath Making!

Gingerbread House Time!  Uncle Kelly put the

foundation down!

Can you tell Mommy did the rest of 

the icing?!!?

Sweetness!

Trying to capture them all together, its not easy:

Merry Christmas!!!
