October: 10 Months Already?!

Ready for a chilly run with mom!

Cozying up with my bird.  But not real thrilled that mom stopped at mile 1 to take my picture.  This is going to take foreeeeever.

Oliver loves to "drive" the shopping cart.  And slobber all over the handle.  At least there aren't any germs on it!  

One of the first times Oliver "stood" on all fours.  But it took a couple of weeks before he learned to coordinate his movements and crawl on all fours.

We love swimming!

Oliver was a bit intimidated for his swim first class and kept his hands clasped most of the time.

Practicing my kicks!

Oliver's 2012 complete set of Topps baseball cards courtesy of a new friend we met at Quyen and Pat's wedding.

Rocking out in the exersaucer.

Hm....so many choices for the perfect chew toy.

I think maybe this one will do just fine.

Yum!

Look carefully--someone is keeping tabs on mom while dinner is being made.

Hooray!  Mom brought me coffee!

Anything inside?

Hm...pretty sure this thing is empty. 

It is funny how the cheapest toys are often the most fun to play with.

All done!

This teething guy needs something healthy to munch on.  

I peeled an apple, kept a close eye on the damage those 2 bottom teeth could do, and snapped away.

Testing out a green pepper from Grampy's garden.

Delicious!

Headed out on our chilliest run yet.

Words can't capture their excitement.  Clearly.

Oliver's snowsuit kept him toasty warm.

Oliver and his new friend--who is yet to be named.

Wow!  You're tall!

Hi friend!

Grampy and Oliver the Pup

Oliver dressed up the day before Halloween to see Grampy.  

Unfortunately Oliver didn't love his specially made puppy hat as much as I did so I had to come up with Plan B.  I needed to find a costume that was more comfortable to wear as it was a hot day!

Gram and Oliver (who actually left his puppy hat on for an entire 30 seconds!)

Thrilled to be dressed up for Halloween!

Any costume guesses?  We heard: football player and basketball player.  

Does the ipod accessory help?  He's a runner baby!  Which fits him perfectly because he is on the move all. the. time.  And he runs every morning with mom! :)

Ritz crackers for Halloween dessert!

Grandma and Oliver.

Happy Halloween!
