Quality time with friends

Oliver always has so much fun playing with Brendan and Cameron. It is fun to watch them together. Brendan dotes on Oliver and he soaks it up! Love it!


We got to meet Enzo (Dave and Jen's new addition)! Oliver was entranced by him, but I'm not sure Enzo felt the same way.

Look at me Mommy!

Like every other day, I put Oliver down for his nap and a little bit later I checked to see if he'd fallen asleep. Nope! He learned how to pull himself up and is now climbing on everything and anything he can!

Trip to Southern California

We took a trip down to Southern California for the wedding of Lindsey's friend, Kelsey. It was a great trip. We got to see Chris and Lauren, which is always fun!


Oliver spent most of dinner hanging out with Chris and Lauren. He jumped all around and kept them busy.


Oliver is trying to point out what Poppy should order for dinner ;)

Nikolas' 5th Birthday

Oliver had fun with all the kids at Nikolas' party.


Smile :)


They are getting so big. Mladen and Oliver are 20 days apart and it's been fun to watch them grow together.


There was a pinata at the party and Oliver was laughing hysterically whenever the kids hit it. We tried to get it on video, but didn't succeed.

Washington Christmas Vacation

We took our first road trip up to Washington for Christmas. We got some great advice to drive up at night (thanks Gayanne!) so that Oliver could sleep the majority of the drive. It worked!




Oliver had fun spending time with Great Grandma and Grandpa Ullery.



We always love being able to see the Pelletier Family and Laura kept Oliver entertained!



Kaitlyn and Oliver in their Christmas pajamas .... kisses for the cousins

It was fun to spend Christmas Eve with the Boldt family.




Christmas morning!!! Oliver had so much fun eating... I mean opening the presents.


Christmas evening at Great Grandma and Grandpa Ullery's with the family was very special for us and we are so glad Oliver got to spend time with all of you!

Papa and Oliver ..... Nana Sheri and Nana Nancy with their grandbabies!



On the way home, we stopped at the Tillamook Cheese Factory. Yum!


We also went to the Oregon coast aquarium. Oliver kept pounding on the glass trying to get the fish, crabs, and sharks. He had not been very vocal until around Christmas, so we had a lot of fun hearing him babble at the fish.


Pit stop at Starbucks for the drive home.... Nick hooked up a video monitor in the back seat, so we could watch Oliver while we drove at night. Here he is sound asleep - our little angel!!

California Christmas Celebration Weekend

We celebrated Christmas twice this year! The first celebration was in California with the Koske side of the family. It was a fun filled weekend with Chris and Lauren visiting and a family holiday party.


Oliver loved getting to know Lucy - here he is meeting her for the first time. He got a big kiss from her :)


It was cute to watch them play together. Lucy was so great with him!


Time to open presents... Oliver on his first Porsche.


Climbing on Poppy and playing with Lucy is so much fun.


Getting love from Uncle Chris and Auntie Lauren!


Oliver is so lucky to have such amazing family. He was having fun playing and cuddling with everyone all night long! Here are the moments we captured on camera.

Lunch with Meredith and Marianthi

Meredith and I have a fun tradition of meeting at Lake Elizabeth for a walk and then going to lunch. I'm not sure who looks forward to it more the mommies or the kids.
