Happy Birthday Oliver!!!

Little Oliver is a year old! Crazy! We had so much fun celebrating his birthday!  He got spoiled with so many new toys, which in turn spoiled Walter as well :) but that's ok, we love it.  I wish I could say that Oliver has gotten easier as he's gotten older, but that's not the case.  Poor kid has been almost a constant ball of whineyness the last few months, and I'm pretty sure it's due to constant teething.  Despite his fussiness, he is still such a sweetheart and has a smile that will make you do anything for him.  Here are some facts about him at a year old:

• He is wearing 24 month clothes, size 6 diapers
• He is still waking up at night.. grrrr. It's pretty much impossible to sleep train him while he is in our bedroom, but I don't want him in Walter's room, or Walter will never get any sleep
• He takes 1 or 2 naps a day
• He is walking and running like crazy!
• He is a climber! He climbs on everything and has no fear!
• He has 10 teeth, even a couple molars!
• He loves loves loves food! But we are pretty sure he has a dairy allergy, so getting him started on milk and stoppping nursing has been a challenge- we're slowly working on it
• He loves to wave at people and get peoples attention
• He can meow like a cat and make fire truck noises
• He loves books! He could look at them all day
• He wants to always be playing with what Walter is playing with, which creates many fights every day
• He is a mommas boy to the max! I love it... most days :)

He sure is a stinker, and some days he is more than I can take, but he is amazing.  He is a big old teddy bear who totally has my heart!
