A Rich Heritage

While we're visiting my family, Oliver has been sleeping in the crib his Great-Grandpa Lindsay slept in as a baby. It was made by his Great-Great-Grandma Lindsay. What a special opportunity and a blessing to still have it in our family.

Our New Game

Oliver and I have a new game and it goes something like this:
I put two teething tablets in his mouth, under his tongue.
He smiles and pushes them out.
I push them back in, he pushes them back out...
They're now mush.
I push the mush back in and he pushes it back out until it finally absorbs into his mouth and dries all over my finger.
I can't help but smile and laugh the whole time while he smiles at me!

Our Growing Boy

Our happy baby swinging away... He loves his soft minky blanket!

Getting excited for Christmas!
He just learned to roll onto his side, so now he likes to do it often.

Oliver has a friend, she's the lady bug that hangs from his lion. We find him "talking" to her all the time, it's so cute! Here, he's apparently a little upset with her...

Tummy time and some talking.

He's getting close to rolling over, we're thinking it might happen soon...

Thanksgiving and Our Rockstar

Thanksgiving was neat here in Louisiana. It was our first one by ourselves, so Mike and I were excited to work together and make dinner. We decided to make deep fried catfish instead of turkey and it was delicious! If anyone comes to visit, we'll make some for you...
Here's our feast! It did take awhile to get through the leftovers, but it was worth it! :)

Oliver continues to grow like a weed. It seems like he grows into some new bigger outfit each day!
Here's his cute "rock star" outfit.

Family Pic

My mom needed a picture of us for the Christmas card, so here is a pretty recent family pic.
