oliver jack is 10 months old!


the tenth month has been an eventful one. we have finally purchased baby gates (and the voice of dr. w. echoes in my head as she says, "good parenting doesn't require baby gates") and our lives are so much easier. he isn't walking yet but he is fast and quite capable of getting himself into trouble. baby gates just allow me the time to clean my house without having to save oliver jack from pulling a chair down on his head, throwing toy pizza into the toilet, or eating various toy dresses, shoes, or army men. sigh. life with three children is certainly fast...
he has changed so much in the past month. i decided to trim the point of hair once it made its way to the middle of his eyebrows...i also trimmed the hair off the back of his neck because it was beginning to look a bit mulletish and i am just not ready to go there...not even for cute baby hair.
he has started doing tricks like playing "night-night" and patty cake. he gives high fives and kisses. and he gets quite proud of himself whenever he accomplishes anything. he loves to put food in his hair and as fast paced as he is, he sure loves to cuddle.
i cannot believe that in only 2 months he will be one year old! everything about this boy has been pleasant. and i am patiently awaiting what the future will bring.
