Week 17

Well....all of us survived my return to work! Dad even managed to hear Ollie at night without prompting....or at least not alot of prompting. While on Dad-duty Oliver decided to surprise his Dad....Adam got up in the night to see what was the matter...when he noted that Ollie was soaked in "sweat"...for some reason he thought I might like to come in and feel for myself (at 4 a.m I opted rather to stay in bed!)...shortly thereafter I was delivered one changed, saucer-eyed Ollie to take care of while Dad cleaned up the aftermath....apparently what Adam had been feeling (and rubbing all over Ollie) was not sweat!!! He he...no pictures of that event unfortunately!!
Ollie is getting more and more active....the feet have officially made it into the mouth this week. They just have trouble staying put. He has discovered that kicking the toys beneath his gym is much more fun now then batting at or grabbing them...in fact, he kicked one so hard it wrapped itself around the top bar!! Showing signs of soccer skills to come perhaps?
In an effort to get rid of the bald spot at the back of his head...we have invested in a little chair called a bumbo...you'll see a pic of Ollie in it...actually this is his friends..Ollie's is yellow...Ollie is chuffed seeing the world in a whole new way. He has even joined mum and dad at the dinner table in his throne.
Well that's it for now folks...we'll keep you posted!
ps....We now have light and electricity in the dining room!!! It has only taken 3years!!! Just in time for Christmas!
