4 months

This boy just gets cuter month by month.
He is so happy and smiley and has just started laughing. It has got to be the best sound on earth. His first laugh was such an incredible thing to hear, sadly, I screamed with excitement and scared little Ollie to death which turned the adorable laugh to a terrified scream. Stupid Mommy.

At 4 months Oliver is very active, lots of kicking and wiggling. I'm scared for when he gets mobile... my life is gonna get tough. He has also started some first foods... which he thus far hates but we're working on it. It has been so much fun to watch him learn new tricks this past month, his best trick however is just sitting around being adorable.




Oliver also had his first swim this month! He LOVED it. He was kicking and squealing and thought it was real funny to watch mom and dad splash. So much fun!


Look at that bod... Oliver's I mean :) He's so strong!

Can't wait to see what the next month holds!

TAGGED

I usually don't do these tag things but I don't have anything else to do at the moment (which I am loving). Jon's home today, we went to breakfast, went on a walk, been playing with Oliver, what else could I possibly do? Plus Ashlie tagged me and it's like in elementary school when someone dares you, or like double dog dares you... you have no choice but to do it!

You probably know the rules, you have to take a picture of these things as is, no cleaning. Lucky for me I made my bed today :)

Favorite Room

I really love Oliver's nursery too, but I already posted that. This is our master bedroom. It's so relaxing feeling, I love it.

Bathroom

This one not so relaxing, and not clean. But hey at least I am following the rules!! Notice, it's only my stuff spread all over the counter. My hubby is such a good sport.

Laundry Room


Nothing too exciting here.

Favorite Shoes

My Mommy shoes, they are flat and comfy and I love them. Ask me 4 months ago and I would have posted some 4 inch, purple heels.

Self Portrait



They were all so stunning, I couldn't pick just one...

Refrigerator

Outside: Motivation for summer so I stop eating crap all day long

Inside: Crap tempting me to forget summer and eat all day

Closet

Stuffed.

Kitchen Sink

Not bad right now.

Your baby at this moment

Playing with Daddy.

And one more just for fun because he was so cute yesterday in his little skunk onesie (it says mommys little stinker, I love it) and camo socks. Who am I kidding, he's cute everyday.


I tag: Mom (you need a new post)
Danna L.
Katie R. (I wanna see your new house)
Kate J.
Sharla J.

Come on girls, join the fun!!!

What matters

Today, I feel selfish and embarrassed for my last post. I'm not gonna delete it because I want it to be a reminder of how I feel today. I was just playing around in posting it, but the truth is that I wanted those things yesterday. Today, not so much.

Today I read THIS it's a long story, but well worth the time to read.

Most of you probably know that the do-gooder in this article is my brother. And reading it brought me to tears. I'm not sure if I felt guilty for my own selfishness, touched by his example, or proud... probably a combination of all 3. But I feel so differently now.

I certainly feel a need to change and I think I will.
