Grandad and Nana's Visit

My little Spider-pop

About to blast off!

Hide-and-seek with Linda, etal.

Sweet Logan, who kept asking Oliver,

"May I have this dance," and

Oliver kept running away.

Grandad and Nana

Lunch on River St

This boy is a party waiting to happen!

So O and I bought a Spiderman tin

filled with taffy for Grandad. And after

lunch Grandad and Nana went to the same

store. Grandad wanted to buy a tin of

taffy and Oliver did an amazing job of

keeping his secret and thwarting Grandad's

efforts to make a purchase. This is him

saying "Oooh, no Grandad."

This is O saying "no, no, no

Grandad," no taffy purchases for you.

"Let's run Grandad."

Happy Birthday Gramma!!!

Just When I Thought O Could not be More Endearing

Last night we were lying in bed talking before sleepy time. Oliver wanted to know what would happen in the future and I was telling him about growing up and doing all the things grown ups do, like working. So I asked him what he thought he might like to do for a job.

me: "Would you like to be an astronaut?"
O: "No."
me: "How about a doctor?"
O: "Oh Yeah! A real doctor so I can take care of people's bodies. That's why I want to be
at work with you."
me: "Because I help take care of people's bodies?"
O: "Yeah."

I almost cried a little bit. It was like a movie moment. He's just so precious.

My Precious O

Oliver's first favorite song was "Uptown Girl," which he calls "Up Down Girl." The other day he asked me to play it then asked, "does she do tumbling?" "I don't know buddy, why?" To which he replied "because she's up and down."

Halloween Weekend 2010!

Uh oh, watch out, these people will getcha!

A Family of Vampires ready to Suck your Blood.

On our way to assault the neighborhood!

YIKES!!!!

Ok, so what if our jack-o-lanterns

didn't look exactly like this. Show offs!

O went up all by himself! He's so BIG!

My little angel handing out candy.

He loved it, maybe even more than

recieving candy.

Chasing the pigeons in Market Square

and getting them with his Web Slinger.

The pirate ship.

He can ring your be-e-ell, ring your bell.

AHA!!!

We're thinking very deep thoughts about

the eco-consequences of the machine age.
