It's naked tummy time!

Here are a few pictures from today's tummy time. To be fair, only one picture is actually tummy time. But mommy likes to combine tummy time and naked time (which requires I air out both sides) because I hate being on my tummy on the floor, but I do love being naked! She figures it balances out to keep me mostly calm.

Out in the fields...

On Monday, dad was off work and it just happened to be the height of strawberry season. So we took a fun family trip to Washington Farms in Watkinsville. Here I am telling dad which ones to pick from the comfort of my baby sling.

Through lots of hard work under the hot sun, and just enough encouragement and direction from me, mom and dad picked a whole bunch of beautiful strawberries. Ever the bargain hunters, m&d brought their basket from last year and saved a whole dollar. We got an entire gallon of fresh ripe strawberries for a mere $8! And that's not counting all the berries that were intercepted before they got to the basket. Not bad! Unfortunately, I'm not on solids yet so I didn't get to try them. But strawberry milk for a few days is a decent deal, I guess. Can't wait for next year! Here is our basket when we were halfway done:


And this is the end of our trip to the farm. As you can see from my face, I was sad to leave. Or maybe I was thinking my parents are jerks for making me stick my face through a cow head. I can't remember now.

And after a long day (or long half hour) workin' the fields, we farmer boys needed a bath. And she wouldn't be a thorough mommy if she didn't document that too.


All that hard work makes a baby tired. But not so tired that I close both eyes.... (okay this is actually not from strawberry day, but it's an excuse to use the natural narrative to post a cute picture of me sleeping. I hope no one minds)

Mother's Day Fun Time!

On Mother's Day Weekend, I went to visit my grandparents! On Satuday, I went to mommy's mom's house, where I met my uncle Jimmy and my new aunt Michelle and new cousin Gracie. Cousin Jordan was there too. Here we all are smooshed on Grandma's couch:

And here I am with just Grandma:
On Sunday, we visited daddy's mom and dad. We floated out to the middle of the lake on the newly jazzed up pontoon, and I got to wear a huge orange lifejacket. Tell me honestly dad, does it make my cheeks look chubby?

Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of me with daddy's parents on Mother's day. I don't know how that happened. Too much commotion I guess!

All in all, a fun weekend had by all. Yay mommies!

Welcome to my Blog

Hi, I'm Oliver, and this is my inaugural blog post. There's not much to say, so I'll start with a set of then and now pictures to introduce myself. This is me about 2 months ago with my mom and dad:


And this is a photo of me taken a couple days ago:


As you can see, I'm well fed and well loved. Oh, and I like to sleep, and wear overalls. I'm about 2'0", with strawberry blond hair and blue eyes. I'm an Aries who enjoys being carried on long walks. I'm not dating yet, but once I am, watch out ladies!
