Fresh Air And The Sound Of Neighborhood Children Playing

Bun and Papa came over with Jackson and taught G to ride his bike without training wheels today.  A bunch of the neighborhood kids also came over to help G learn.  Here he is with his new skill.  We are SO proud of G!!!!!




The Bike Riding Superstar!!!

O needed to eat and such, so we sat on the floor by the open window in the living room and got some fresh air and sunshine.

Yesterday, we noticed that Ollie is almost reaching toward things, and today, he grabbed Mommy's shirt.  We thought that was a pretty significant milestone.  Here is a photo of when it happened:


He also really started tracking yesterday - if we jingle a toy, he will follow it with his head.  



Finally, one more thing we noticed today is that he seems to be putting on weight.  I think that every parent of a newborn wants that reassurance that he is getting enough nourishment, so we are happy that Ollie looks so healthy.  Just look at those cheeks in today's "Awww" moment:
