Busy, busy boy

So, this morning Oliver discovered the drawer under the stove where we keep all our cookie sheets and other large, flat metal items, and while I sat here on the couch, he brought them all to me, one at a time. Very busy, very determined. After two large cookie sheets, two cooling racks, a muffin tin and a splash guard were strewn about the living room, he set out to return them to the drawer... I haven't checked to see what that looks like, but I'm sure it's amusing! I think he's only brought two things back so far, actually. It's quite a noisy endeavor. Oh, here comes the cookie sheet, back into the living room...

Yesterday we had a little walk down the street, and he was extremely fascinated in the big oil truck parked next door (engine still running). He stopped nearby and just stared at it, pointed to it repeatedly, murmered interesting noises, and waved at it a bit. The oil man saw him and smiled, and when he drove the truck away, he waved at Oliver. Oliver watched the truck turn the corner, and then waved back, and kept waving for quite some time. Very cute boy!

Right now Oliver's dad is out on his mountain bike with a fellow biker we met at the park a few weeks ago - it's sunny outside but very cold still. When he gets back, we're all going out for a walk in the woods or possibly down to Frenchtown, NJ for a bike along the canal path on the Delaware River. We're looking forward to trying out Oliver's new bike buggy - we'll take lots of pictures! xoxo
