Oliver 2 1/4

What can I say about this toddler? He is such a great kid! His speech is pretty adult-like these days, he loves music and likes to sing, loves reading, and is developing his sweet tooth. Of course I'd be lying if I said living with a 2-year old was all sunshine and rainbows. He has his frustrating moments (e.g., doesn't want to get dressed or have his diaper changed, says something we don't understand, etc.) but the highs outshine the lows for sure. He's been spending a lot of time doing things with Chris while I have been home with Josie. I miss him but know the two of them have fun on their adventures. I got to take him to his swimming lessons the last few weeks and we had a blast. Here are some photos from the last month or so.

We've had our hands full with the new baby so I didn't have time to do a separate Thanksgiving post. Here are a few photos of us the night before making my family's fruit "salad". Oli had fun helping me make it but didn't want to eat it. Still a picky eater although he's been trying some new things which we encourage.
December has been a particularly cold one (even for Minnesota) so Oli has been wearing his "dog ear" hat even inside. He is always making us laugh!
Happy 2 1/4 Oliver! I'm so lucky to be your mom. Love you!
