Happy Birthday Oliver!

I had every intention of doing this yesterday, but didn't quite make it. Our little monkey is now 2 years old and every day he does or says something new. I could sit and watch him for hours, except I'm a little to prone to want a cuddle.

We had dinner with Nanna and Grandad and Gatey on Sunday afternoon. Oliver liked his silver crocs, but nothing was as good as his new puppy - luckily it's plastic and rolls along. Thanks Nanna. Oliver has named it Aimee - he misses Uncle J and Aunty Aimee very much, and he's already got their Christmas present from England to put under the tree. That means Dad can start Christmas early this year - yay. As I write, Oliver is 'talking' to Uncle J and Aunty Aimee on the phone - his hand up to his ear and chatting away merrily. It's a shame he isn't so chatty on the real phone.

Yesterday we took Aimee for a walk in the park and Oliver played in the fountains. Grandpa came to visit at lunchtime and Oliver was wrapped with his new elctronic book and blow up pool. Of course, he loves the Thomas duplo train Mum and Dad bought him too, and the playset from Oma and Peter has been a favourite since it was put up. Dad needs to get busy and provide some shade so it's usable during summer.

Enough rambling, here are some photo's and videos. Thankyou to everyone for their emails and messages.

Where's the truck, Mum?

Is that wet?

Taking my puppy, Aimee, for a walk.

Yay for me!

Worn out from the park.

What a special little two year old!Oliver is affectionate, excitable,addicted to hummus,learning to say new words every day and loves to dance with the Wiggles or High 5. We were so happy that he loved his pull along puppy and thought it so cute that he named it Aimee.
Very proud grandparents Nanna Noel and Dan-dan Greg. (Words such as grandad and Jarrad are not easy to say)xoxo

Whoops - so sorry I forgot Oliver's birthday. Just can't get over how much he's grown in the few months since I last saw him. He's fabulous! Hope all is going well. Love you all heaps,
