My parents are so la-ame

I kept posing for the best photos and videos ever, and yet, no posting by my la-ame parents. Well, finally they've at least gotten the stuff onto Flickr.

Well, I'm too hard on them... maybe if I stopped needing constant attention, they'd get more done. Why would I do that though?

budding artiste

I turned on "scribble" on the iPhone and let Oliver go to town. Seriously all I did was close the help screen when he clicked the help button.

looking forward

My favorite new thing is to look forward, from high off the ground. Here are a couple pics of my ma and pa giving me the height I require to survey the world. It's good to be the boss.

water

Last night Daddy had a glass of water and Oliver seemed very interested. So Daddy let him have a sip. He wanted another!

healthy

Ollie had his doctor's visit yesterday. He's 14.4 pounds and 24 inches long -- on the large side, of course! The doctor gave him a clean bill of health!

He also got his 2-month shots. He was a brave little boy. Mommy, of course, kind of freaked out. Ollie screamed for a minute or two, and then settled down for a cranky evening. A good night's sleep, though, and he's back to his happy self!

The doctor recommended Tylenol for "crankiness" -- do you think that would work on grownups, too?

grabby

For the past two weeks, Oliver's been working on his grabbing skills. Check it out!

mobile

Mom found a neat idea for a mobile on the internet (here in case anyone is interested -- I just cut out the shapes, stapled them to pieces of cereal boxes, and clipped them to a photo mobile). It's his FAVORITE THING EVER IN THE WHOLE WORLD. We had no idea how much he'd love it.

Here's a video daddy took of him enjoying it:
