Chopsticks!!

Tomorrow Ollie gets to leave Ollie's new house. It's been a fun 2 weeks with new toys, new bath, new books, and a new experience - his first attempt at eating with chopsticks! We are definitely going to have to pick up a set for him.

Bye bye Ollie's new house hello ......?????.... to be continued

i asked papa to find a good picture of mama to help me write this mother's day post. he told me this is one of his favorite pictures since it was taken within hours of finding out that I was growing in mama's belly. he said i was just a little more than a twinkle in her eye. do you think she knew I was going to be such a handful?

 

i woke up nice and early today to tell mama I loved her.... somewhere around 530. she wasn't ready but papa was ready to film it

mama i love you...see you at 10 o clock!

 

SHOWERHEADS!!!!!!

While eating breakfast together this morn, the usual topic of conversation for mama and papa was the renovation, I believe specifically tile.

Out of the blue, Ollie shouts SHOWERHEADS! We all start to laugh. Poor guy is so sick of us talking about this project.

The one good side is we sometimes let him watch some dinosaur train while we are planning. This was the scene last night right before bath time.

Earth ball

Fun with Ollie's new earth ball.

 

Neuhaus

Life at Ollie's house has a been a bit hectic of late. We decided now is the right time to renovate our uber 80's bathrooms. It took awhile to find a contractor that could meet at least 2 out 3 of our project needs, budget, quality, and schedule. Schedule was the one we ended up compromising on. We had to find a sublet and finalize the renovation details with about a week's notice....so Ollie has a new house!

One thing he is sick of listening to is Mama & Papa talking about the renovation. He often interrupts us and says no Mama dont talk to Papa talk to me! I am not sure why he is not enthralled by wide array of subway tile offered: 

 

This evening we moved in to our sublet (luckily the home of a 2 yr old boy) and it took Ollie all of 5 minutes to spread out the kid's entire set of toys on the floor. 

 

Here he is checking out his new gear. 

 

One perk to the new temp digs is that it is across the street from a old school soda fountain shop. This eve we had a scoop of ice cream, next time we will try an egg cream
