Update September 2008


Well, Oliver did a log of growing this month. Both physically and developmentally. He's officially crawling now and has already realized that he can pull himself up to stand, which he has accomplished a few times now. He cries a lot more now that he's mobile and keeps falling over or whacking his face on things.

We have new videos and photos! (Links to your left.)



Grant was here on business this week and we got to visit with him for about 3 hours on Saturday morning before he flew away. It was so fun to see him and sad that it was so short. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANT, this Friday!!! The big 3-0.


Oliver is learning the meaning of the word "no" and more often than not throws little fits when he hears it and when his mission gets interrupted. (Usually crawling towards cords: computer cords, lamp cords, projector cords. Why do we have so many cords in our house?!) But just a few days ago, after I had told him "no" twice and removed him from his goal, the third and fourth times he went for it and I said, "No, Oliver", he actually stopped and turned around and crawled away. I was VERY amazed! He's a good kid.


Nathan and I are healthy and happy. Nothing new or exciting with us. Today is our 1st anniversary in our condo. It has also been four years since Nathan proposed to me and he still makes me laugh every day and he is still the greatest guy I have ever come across. I'm repeatedly shown what a fantastic choice I made, or really, what a great blessing I was given.

He is adorable!! I can't believe he is mobile. I don't know what I will do when Gavin gets mobile. I can't wait to see you guys in December!
