It takes a village to raise a little one... and Mr. Ollie Hayes, you are no different. Mom and dad left for a full week this month and thank goodness for our friends and family that love keeping you. You love everybody so it is easy. You joyously go into their arms and giggle and smile at all.
You have eight teeth now and are really working hard on your molars... so hard that you keep getting ear infections. You also may be allergic to the seasons changing. Don't worry, we all are. It's no fun.
You can walk and dance and you love doing both. The other thing that you love doing is opening up cabinets, which in turn required us to baby safety lock all of the cabinets in the kitchen. I thought I could get away without doing it... and alas, you win again. You walk around with a ball in one hand and a book in the other. I love it because it makes me think that you are equal parts of your father and me.
You have started sleeping really poorly at night for your first time in your life. If you could knock it off, we would appreciate it; however those ear infections, weaning, and teething are not necessarily helping you any. It's okay though. You've learned quickly that we love cuddling with you in our bed...
You give the best kisses, all open mouthed and slobbery. But you have started biting too. You can't be a biter so we'll work on that. You still love food and are so happy. I love that you are my little one Mr. Ollie. I love it.
