Hard To Keep Cute Down

We are halfway through this cycle. His steroids and mercaptopurine have gone up again, due to his weight going up another 500g. We have expected this to result in a grumpier little man, but he seems to be handling it OK, almost better in fact, though that is fairly subjective depending on the state of his parents.

He has been walking more and more, though still loves his trolley. He is fairly wobbly at the moment due to his steroids, but is still eager to give his legs a workout. Won't be long now. I thought I'd share a few pics and video's with you.

Here is Oliver in a few of his favourite places.

Of course his favourite place is on mummy's shoulder. Can't say I blame him.

Next would have to be his bookcase. Let him do his own thing and it won't be long before he is going through his books.

The path below the lemon tree is also a favourite. Normally he negotiates it with his trolley, which I can't imagine is easy.

Oliver has learnt to sneeze. We think this is the cutest thing ever! We are a bit biased.

Sorry, I don't know how to re-orient this. Any idea's? Oliver is studying up hard. Actually, for those who know, he's flicking through my Boardman Tasker Omnibus. That probably means something to someone. Not sure what he's looking for, but he's obviously exasperated about not finding it.

In a follow-up to the last random news break, I have enrolled in a Master of Nursing Science at UWA, to begin in July. I'm pretty excited. At the moment I'm obviously interested in paediatric oncology, but I suspect I'll end up heading towards emergency nursing. The course is general and 2 years fulltime, and overloaded, so who knows what will happen at the end.
