3 Months Old

Oliver is 3 months old!  He's discovered his hands and fingers and loves to suck and drool on them. He always clasps his hands together like he's in deep thought or something. He sleeps from about 7:30pm to 5:00am, eats and sleeps until 7:30ish am. YEY! He squeals when he's excited and smiles at everyone he meets.  I love to stare at him.  I never knew I could find so much joy in simple things like a smile or a look from him. Motherhood is exhausting and emotionally draining, but very rewarding.

Gotcha Mom!

Life has really changed! I was feeding Oliver while eating dinner when all of a sudden, I heard a loud sound and felt something warm on my leg. I thought it was the usual dirty diaper.  I continued eating and talking to Brian, but after a few minutes something told me to look down. So we both looked down and realized why my leg felt so warm. YUK!!  



Maclay Gardens

Saturday has become our day to explore Tallahassee.  Today we went to Maclay Gardens State Park.  The garden was not in bloom but it was still pretty.  There was so much we didn't see. We'll have to go back again!  There's canoeing, fishing, trails, lakes and even wildlife observatories.  You'll have lots of places to choose from when you visit us!

Reading Time

Here we are reading "The Very Hungry Caterpillar".  A very fitting book.  Oliver and the little caterpillar have the same appetite!


Sitting in the Park

There are so many parks to explore in Tally!  Today we went to The Park Avenue Chain of Parks in the Downtown area.   There's a visual corridor that connects one park to the next.  It's very pretty!

Oli had just woken up from a long nap so he was cranky and was not in the mood for a photo shoot. But we did manage to get this one smile out of him.

The rest of the time he wanted to eat and sleep. Notice the pouty expression on his face.
So serious....
Our little man...

Behind me you can see a corridor leading to the next park.
