Ready For My Close-up.

Well, Dad hasn't loaded any new pictures in a while, but at least he uploaded the last six months' worth of videos to Youtube. Here's a sample, and you can see 'em all at http://www.youtube.com/ollienite.

Halloween and after.

Well, here we are chugging into November. Thanksgiving is coming, and I'm practicing eating solid food so I can take full advantage of the holiday. These days, Mom and Dad can mash up some of whatever they're eating and I'll eat it. Now, if I could just get the rest of these teeth in, I could *really* chow down. . . .


The weekend before Halloween we had another wedding, this time for Raederle and Salsa. I got to get all dressed up again, and this time I told Mom and Dad I couldn't be seen at another wedding in my suit. I'd already worn it twice, and I simply had to have something new to wear. Fortunately, Old Navy helped a brotha out, and we found a most excellent shirt and some slacks for me.


Last weekend was my very first Halloween. It's a weird age to celebrate, though. My dissected frog costume was awesome, but I can't have any candy, so what's the point? Oh, right -- to look extra cute and get a lot of attention. Hopefully next year I'll get my sugar high, too.


I've also been enjoying hanging out with Mara and Adam. As you can see, Adam and I are rapdily becoming best buddies.


Other than that, there's not much to report. I'm still climbing on everything I can get a handhold on, and talking non-stop. I'll repeat "mama" and "papa" if you want me to, but I still don't quite get what they mean. I just know it makes Mom and Dad really happy when I say them, so I try and oblige. What also makes Mom and Dad really happy is that I've discovered the joys of playing by myself. I like to crawl into the nursery and pull out my toys, and I'll spend twenty minutes just playing and talking to them. It's a good chance for Mom to do homework and Dad to do . . . well, whatever Dad does.


Hopefully Dad will upload some of the thirty dozen videos he's taken of me recently. I'll link you here if he does.
