If I had to describe him in one word it would be...
HAPPY
We've been going to the little playground in our apt. complex almost every day. It's been so cold lately that it's the only place I manage to walk to sometimes. Maybe to him it looks like a huge park?
He's been sleeping 10 to 12 hours at night but doesn't really have a consistent nap pattern in the day time. He does get fussy/tired every 2-3 hours, but he fights it and is particular about how he falls asleep. For example, he will sleep up to 2 hours if I go for an outdoor walk but will not be fooled if I'm walking at the mall or a bookstore, so I'm forced to exercise if I want him to take a nice long nap! Or if we're at home I feed him, read and sing to him and put him in his crib and he'll sleep for about half an hour to an hour (when he feels like it). He hates being in his car seat and will sometimes cry the entire car ride (not fun!). The Horstmeyers got to witness half an hour of that! He hates his swing at home but really likes the outdoor swings. Maybe he doesn't like confinement? He's ok on the bouncy chair and does well in the carrier. He loves being cuddled in the nursery on Sundays and loves to socialize wherever we go but he's more picky around bedtime. In Summary, Oliver is a happy but particular little person.
I have a feeling we're going to enjoy seeing life through his eyes!
Weeeeh!
