"Buh, buh, buh"

Oliver practices his new noise while he plays in the Exersaucer.

Exterior Paint

David determined that the exterior of our house needed to be painted before this winter so we've been scrambling to get it done. As you can see in the pics, it will be quite an improvement (when we're finally finished.) The jasmine plant growing on the front of our house had to be seriously trimmed back and David did a lot of scraping and prepping. We labored over the color choice and finally decided on some that we thought would be fun - the green is "Mother Nature" and the brown is "Cocoa Chocolate." We still have some trim to paint and David has to re-hang the gutters but we got the bulk of it done before the rains started!

More Baby Noises

Oliver was laying on the floor in my office next to David and they were waiting for me to finish up a quick project at work. Oliver starting making some noises for attention and I grabbed my camera to catch some of his sounds.

Date Night!

Oops. I loaded these pics awhile back but never published the post. David scored free tickets to a Timbers game and Jamie stayed with Oliver so we could go watch it. Our team lost but it was still fun to go out and cheer them on!
