2 months

Oliver had his 2 month check-up last Tuesday. He was 14 lbs 12.4 oz and 24 1/4 in. long! He is growing too fast:) I am enjoying staying home with him but we are missing Andrew now that he is back in school. He loves sitting in his bouncy seat and looking at the toys that hang across it. He has started blowing bubbles and we are working on sitting in his Bumbo. We are enjoying his smiles, talking, and snuggling. He is such a little blessing!

We love you buddy!

Birthdays

So last week was the birthday week. My brother Brock's was on Monday. Andrew's sister Abby's was on Tuesday. Mine was on Wednesday. Andrew's was on Saturday.

On my birthday Andrew had to do school and football stuff so I went to the pool with my mom, my sister, and her kids. I went up to my sister's for lunch. Here is Ollie waiting to go to the pool. He is getting really good at sitting in his Bumbo!

This about the extent of Oliver and Jake playing together... it's so funny because they hardly ever look at each other:) We can't wait until they are old enough to really play together!
The weather was so perfect. Mom was so sweet and held Oliver for me so I could get some sun. They had fun taking a nap:)
Here is my birthday buddy Mackenzie:)
After the pool Nichole invited me to go with her to girls night. We ate at a Mexican restaurant and had a good time. I even got to wear a sombrero while they sang Happy Birthday to me. The best part about that was I got a yummy birthday dessert:)

On Friday we headed up to my parents to celebrate for the weekend. You can't tell in the picture but Friday night we saw a beautiful rainbow!
On Saturday, Aaron, Nichole and fam came over and Brock and Zach came home from college to celebrate. Brock and Ollie were showing Cardinal pride :) (much to Andrew's dismay)
The college boys...
The birthday people. Andrew got banana bars, Brock chocolate chip bars, and I got Anna's yummy cup cakes:)
We skyped Dustin and Leah so they could be in on the party too. We missed having you both there! Thanks Dad and Mom for a wonderful weekend of being spoiled. We love you guys!

Sleeping...

This is how Ollie likes to fall asleep. He is such a cuddle bug:)

Wiese Birthday Weekend

Since most of the Wiese family has an August birthday we usually try to get together and celebrate! This past weekend Andrew and I drove up on Saturday morning, stopped to do a little shopping, and headed out to the Wiesee Plantation. When we got there we had a fabulous BLT lunch and afterwards the "kids" headed outside to play on the slip-n-slide (bummed I didn't get a picture!). For dinner Dad grilled and afterwards we celebrated! Here are the grandparents with all the grandchildren.

After church on Sunday we went to Red Robin to get our free birthday burgers! This was Oliver's first time to my favorite restaurant:)

Before we left Andrew was trying out our new carrier and Oliver was trying on his new hat from Grandpa and Grandma Wiese.
We had such a fun time and are so blessed to have such great family. Thanks so much for all you did and do Dad and Mom. We love you guys!

7 Weeks Tomorrow!

Oliver is growing so fast! We weighed him the other day and he weighed 14lbs. He is growing out of his 0-3 month clothes and is now wearing 3-6 months and even 6 month onesies. He has slept through the night 4 nights in a row now! It has been so nice:) He lets us know when he is tired and loves to nuzzle into my neck to fall asleep. I love the cuddle time.

He is such a sweetie:)

Ollie's Room

I finally took some pictures of Oliver's room. I still haven't gotten anything for the walls yet which I hope to do soon! We will see:)

My favorite part about his room is his bedding that my cousin Leisa made. I love it! Oliver loves the dots on the bumper:)

He has been taking his naps in his crib but sometimes prefers his swing. We are enjoying him so much!

Ollie Update

Oliver is 5 weeks old today! He has been such a great baby, especially with having to travel so much! It has been nice being home these last couple of days and starting to get a routine. He doesn't really cry unless he is tired or hungry. He eats about every three hours during the day and usually wakes up once during the night to eat and then around six in the morning. He loves to be held when he goes to sleep. At his two week checkup which was actually at almost three weeks he weighed 11 lbs 6oz and was 22 3/4 in. long. He is such a big boy! I think he weighs about 13 lbs now. He is even wearing some 3-6 month clothing! He only loves bath time when it is in his big boy tub and likes his swing most of the time. He smiled at me a couple of weeks ago a few times and lately has been doing it a lot, I love it:) He has also started "talking" more... so sweet. We are falling more and more in love with him every day:)

Here are some pictures starting from when we brought him home till now. Enjoy!
