Oli's first bath

Oli is a pretty mellow baby. The only time he reliably cries a lot is during diaper changes. He seems to hate being naked. So we were ready for a loud first bath. He had another idea. He fell right asleep within seconds of being put in.

Asleep in the bath

Post bath, barely awake

Conked out again with Daddy shortly after, Daddy almost asleep as well.

It's now been 5 (!) hours since his last bottle. This is the longest stretch he's gone. Not sure if it was the bath, that we gave him a slightly bigger bottle, or what, but Oli just might be getting a bath every night from now on... maybe two ;)

Playdate yesterday

Charlotte went to her first playdate since Oli's arrival yesterday. Lots of running, sliding, and more running. Oli was the perfect gentleman and slept in the moby wrap the whole time so mommy could play photographer.

Grandpa brings the best presents

Grandpa John visited yesterday and brough presents. Charlotte's favorite part was the fashionable hat.

Day 4

Oli kept mom and dad up most of last night, but we still had a great day 4. This morning Charlotte and mommy went for a walk and a short spell at the playground. Then Oli had his first doctor's appointment while Charlotte and daddy went to another playground, Trader Joe's and the library. Oli is almost back up to his birth weight, already 7 lbs 14 oz. His ultra sound on his hip came back normal, so clear bill of health :) 'Aunt' Carri came to visit us for lunch. Then after nap, Charlotte tried out her new sidewalk chalk while Oli tried out the baby carrier for the first time. To top it off Charlotte loved the banana pancakes Daddy made for dinner.

Tomorrow is Charlotte's first day of pre- preschool, so another eventful day in the works.

Mr. Oliver Comes Home

This was Oli's coming home outfit. He can't wait to see his new buddy Gabe (my cousin Elisha's little one due at the end of the month) in his coordinating hat!

Bill was surprised that even with the straps in the tightest position they're still slightly lose. Oli will need to grow into them....
