Nichole and I went to the park to

feed the ducks. - They loved it!

One of Oliver's favorite things to do is

sit on the bottom step of the stairs and

read his little books.

The first time Oliver played in his turtle

sandbox.

I watched Zayden a few days after Sienna was born.

Oliver and Zayden had fun being silly together.

Mom and Dad came up to visit for a few days

Daddy got Oliver his very own laptop (an old one that they

didn't need, from work) Oliver was just a tad bit excited! :)

Melynda and Uncle Dan came down

to look for apartments for Melynda

to live in while she goes to school

to become a Physician's Assistant.

Then we all went down to Tucson.

Oliver's first ride on Grandma's

rocking horse.

The ride down to Tucson. - Two different Oliver's! :)

Oliver and Uncle Dan

Oliver gets a bedtime story read to him

by his cousin Melynda.

Ginny's little girl Arrina befriended Oliver. She hung

out with us quite a bit. - She helped watch over Oliver.

Oliver is already attracting the girls. Whenever we

would go over to the grassy area where the kids play

some girls would follow Oliver. It looks like he is

trying to run away.

Rachel and Oliver

Oliver becoming "pals" with Naomi, so that he

can have some of her goldfish.

Auntie Heather, Uncle Aaron and cuz

Madalyn came to visit. ....And of course

Grandma came up to visit both

grandchildren.

I love my little niece to pieces! Madalyn

has the cutest personality.

Nichole, Alicia and I met up at the mall for the weekly
thursday kids hour.

Oliver is sometimes fascinated with different objects. -

This time he played with this note card box for about an

hour. - Again I say - why buy kids toys. :)

Oliver and Zayden playing at a park

close to our houses.

Mom and Grandma came to visit Oliver...oh and also

Ethan and I.

A bunch of the younger kids that go to our Mesa

gospel meeting.

Alicia, Kalab & Kayden went with Oliver and I

to the zoo. Oliver's first time at the zoo. He

seemed more interested in the people around him

then the animals themselves. -We should have

just set on a bench at the mall. -he he

Some photos of when Alicia and I were doing daycare together.


At Grandma's house - where he is ALWAYS spoiled! :)

Having fun with Rachel & Nathan's cat.

February 2009 Photos

Alicia and I were doing child daycare in her home. Oliver was becoming a pro at walking and Oliver enjoyed playing in the playhouse in Grandma and Grandpa Z's backyard.

Rex, LeAnn and Thor came to visit the week after

we got back from the cruise.

After we got back from the cruise we were really really sick. Oliver ended up getting two double ear infections back-to-back. Poor guy! :( I cannot even remember a time when I was sick this often.

I started doing home daycare with my cousin Alicia (she ended up going back to work). - I am now doing daycare at my home. And Oliver started walking just before he was 13 months.
