Well, i am a few days early, but i thought i would give everyone the 18 month update on my beautiful little blue eyed man. He is FINALLY getting over the World's worst double ear infection ever, and i am pleased to report that both ears finally look clear save a small amount of fluid behind his left ear. He is weighing in at a respectable 23 pounds and is measuring a cool 32 inches. He is also talking up a storm with new words everyday! The new ones for today are "horsey" (hoss-ee) along with clopping noises for the feet, and "cow" followed by a moo. Some of his newest words are snowman, snowing, (yes, you can see the Montana-ish trend in his words), meer (which means "come here" along with hand motions for him to be picked up:-), hello, and hi. He has well over 40 words that are in his vocabulary and gains more every time i turn around. He has also turned into quite the little imp, getting into everything that he is not supposed to, but avoids punishment by giving me or Grandma that little smile that melts our hearts.
Some of his favorite things these days are his blanket, aka "Baby", baths, bubbles, ice water (thanks to grandma), puppies, Roo, Maddie, long afternoon naps, large cardboard boxes, Grandma's shower, cookies, pictures of Daddy, flushing the toilet, helping make dinner, climbing (much to my dismay), and playing outside. He always says "please" and "thank you" after most everything, and we are currently working on "I love you" which sounds more like "eye-wa-woo". Below are a few videos mainly for my beloved husband, but if you are willing to sit through them, they are rather entertaining.
This first one is one of my favorites. Here Oliver has found an old mailing envelope and has decided to make it into a rather charming hat:-)
This one just shows you what a goof Oliver is and how much this ham loves the camera!
This last one was an afternoon spent outside in the driveway with Grandma. He absolutely LOVES running around outside so I cannot wait to get back to South Carolina where it is actually warm and we have a park just down the street:-)

I love the way he thinks everything is a hat!! And way to let him run into the desk! That was hilarious!! I never got to hear the reaction to the haircut!!
Love the hat! What a cute little guy. We just might have to come and steal him away! Can't believe how fast he is running. He is adorable.
