He's a Big Boy Now

The Novoa house has been teeming with lots of developmental growth lately. Oliver is getting to be such a big boy and he's decided that eating with ones hands is for babies. Check out these two videos of Oliver taking his first "stab" at self feeding with a fork and a spoon.








Oliver has also recently showed us his very special talent....whistling! That's right, our baby whistles. Ok, well he doesn't quite have the entire technique down so I have to help him a little but tell me how many 13.5 months old babies whistle.



Oliver has also really taken to helping with the house chores. I mean, it's about time he started pulling his own weight around here. Fortunately, he seems to like it.

I couldn't leave this entry without mentioning the irony that is our lives. Oliver's first song that he has actually learned to recognize is the Itsy Bitsy Spider. He also makes the hand gesture of the spider climbing up the water spout. It's really cute! Enjoy (sorry for my bad singing)!
