10 weeks

My how much can happen by week 10! We've really seen such a change in Oliver this past week, week number 10. He's so much more active, and talking more and more. It makes us smile to see how much he's growing.
My family came to visit us this past week and we had such a nice time introducing them to little Oliver and visiting with them. It's been about a year since I've seen them, including my nephew. My nephew has grown so much too! I saw him at 4 months and now he's huge at 17 months, and so busy! Kind of gave us a preview of what to expect in the next year!
We had so much fun catching up though, and watching the little ones interact.
While we were at Cracker Barrel for dinner last night, Oliver made another milestone marker. He was sitting there in his little car seat and we looked over and saw him with his little fist in the air with his gaze focused completely on it. Just watching it move. It was so adorable to see him finally notice his very own fist, and so funny! He just kept staring at it and moving it, then would drop it down and forget, only to go back and do it again later.
I'm sure this is probably not exciting stuff to those that have several children, but going through these milestones with our own baby is so much fun!! It's amazing to see them grow and realize how very quickly it happens.
He also sat in his bumbo for the first time and sat up like a champ. No problem for him! He was talking up a storm tonight and making us laugh. We have a feeling there will be many more nights like these to come.
So milestones for 10 weeks:
discovered fist
talking and cooing more and more
sitting up straighter
first tear!
slept through the night!
