Easter Eggs

Charlotte and Oliver were both sick yesterday with a cold. Combine that with rain all day long and by mid-afternoon any distraction was welcome. We ended up dying Easter eggs and it was a big success. Oliver and Bill supervising Charlotte directing the dying process

The final results (yeah, purple didn't come out too well :P)

Oli really wants to be able to crawl

He can get up on hands and knees. He's managed to scoot back a few times, but so far no coordinated crawling. Unfortunately, he's favorite place to practice is his crib when he's supposed to be going to sleep. Last night I caught him rocking back and forth on his hand and knees. He literally fell asleep mid-rock in the crawling pose.

Oliver at 7 months

I had tried to post these on his 7 month "birthday" but due to technical difficulties, you're now be inundated with posts one after another instead.

Big hugs

Charlotte likes to hug Oliver. But she doesn't quite understand that hug does not equal head lock.

Just hanging out

I Love You Oli

Unprompted Charlotte gave Oli a big hug today and said "I love you Oli!"

He responded by blowing more raspberries.

First day of the season at the Animal Park

Checking out the baby donkey

Yes, the stroller is pink ... the price you pay for having a big sister.
