Oh How a Month Flys By

On Friday Oct. 24th Oliver turned one month old...only a day after his due date! As part of newborn ritual we celebrated Oliver's one month birthday with a visit to the pediatrician. Oliver weighed a whopping 7lbs 7oz...only one more ounce than Marina weighed when she was born. He was almost 21 inches long and got a perfect bill of health. He's eating between 2oz and 4oz at each feeding and has more good nights than bad. His Mom's are doing well and can't believe how big he's gotten already .

As part of Oliver's birthday weekend we visited with lots of friends. On Friday night, Auntie Q came over to play and brought us such a yummy homemade soup. On Saturday Tami, Emily and Joey came to visit and then we went to Katie and Angie's house for some delicious homemade pizza. Oliver also got to see his Aunts Kris, Tamar and Q (again) which made him more than happy. He felt so at home in all of their arms...he better get used to it since they are all going to be in his life for a long time and will be baby sitting many, many times.

On Sunday we initiated Oliver to the world of woman's flag football...and all the yelling and screaming that accompanies it. He did so well and hardly batted an eye...except to flirt with some of the girls taking peeks at him...too bad most of them were lesbians.

Later that day Shawn, Jeff and Zoe came over for a visit. Zoe oogled at her future boyfriend and started making wedding plans in her little notepad.

Oliver really enjoyed his weekend and all the awesome festivities in which he got to partake. Time is flying by so quickly and each day we look at each other and shake our heads in disbelief that we are actually parents.
