The three months after year one. This little Olan dude is becoming quite the character! Although he didn’t get a photo shoot all to himself this time, I compiled a bunch of random ones from this season. He’s our little tornado baby, he’s still a crawler (although he can walk, he’s milking the crawl for all its worth), he’s starting to say real words (mom, dad, sis, grandma, star, ball, downstairs, car), and I can’t get enough of his sweet baby cheeks! Gobble ’em up.
Some notable Olan thangs this time around:
- Has his little tongue out constantly.
- Points where he wants to go (and he KNOWS where he wants to go, let me tell ya)
- Loves opening doors (bedrooms, cabinets, microwaves, no discrimination)
- Throws tantrums. Oh my, we have got our work cut out for us. Hitting, screeching, contorting… the whole gambit.
- Feeds himself. Even getting the hang of using a spoon like big sis!
- Obsessed with kicking and hitting a ball around. He is even throwing it up in the air and catching it! Paired with a huge tantrum if he misses. I know how ya feel, kid.
- Favorite food is bananas. I’m pretty sure he’d eat 12 bananas a day if I let him.
- Makes the brrrm car noise when he’s pushing around cars
- Loves reading books with his mom. Swoon!
- Loves to be upside down with his mouth gaping open
- He’s got 4 new teeth (all four back molars!) for a total of 12!
- Wearing 24 month/2T clothes and a size 6 foot
- Major belly sleeper (and much more attached to a pacifier than Evie ever was… hmm)
- 7:30pm-6:30am sleeper
- 28 pounds of goodness
- Climbs up and down stairs with ease (we haven’t witnessed a “head first” attempt in a long while)
- Loves to be chased
- Slides are fun!
- Makes a mess in 3 seconds flat.
- Must have food. He will follow us around relentlessly until food is in his grasp.
