Dear Oliver,
I LOVE this photo of you! It really captures who are you are becoming and how much you keep changing, even week to week. You discovered your legs a few days ago and shortly thereafter those little hands found your feet as well. You're constantly in this position now: knees bent and hands grabbing for your legs and feet. We have to keep your nails constantly trimmed because you're not only scratching up my chest and arms, now your claws attack your own legs!
You love to roll back and forth on any given surface and although you can't quite get from your back to your belly yet, you have certainly mastered flipping over when you're propped up on your elbows, belly down.
It's so much fun for us when you babble and coo, which you do more and more. This afternoon I even caught you on video blowing raspberries--another first!
You wouldn't even believe how much you make me smile and how lucky I feel to hold you, snuggle you, laugh with you, comfort you, and feed you on a daily basis. You've taught me more about unconditional love in your short twenty weeks of life than I've learned in my thirty (!) years of life and I'm grateful every single day to be your mommy.
We have yet to figure out what you will be for Halloween--or at least, what costume you will wear for twenty minutes during a photo session--so stay tuned for that. And please, please be patient with your daddy and think about not screaming when you're with him? He can only circle the house in the stroller so many times, dear little one.
Love,
Your Mama
