Ollie loves to play. He has become very verbal while he sucks on and holds his toys. Although he's only rolled over a few times, he is doing a great job of pushing his chest up during tummy time and can sit up for short periods of time without assistance.
He also has a jumperoo that a friend of mine, Julianne, is letting me borrow. He loves it and goes crazy bouncing. Every time he jumps it lights up and makes noise. He figured that out in a hurry. He does, however, like to be affirmed while jumping. An occasional, "Great job, Ollie!" does the trick. It's hilarious!
He has also decided that the swing is okay. Initially, he hated the thing and every time we put him in it he would scream and of course puke. He does though have a time limit. The other morning he was sitting in it while I finished breakfast for Bob and I and course Ollie. He decided he had enough and began howling. I looked at him and signed "All done?" while saying it too. After I said it a few times, Ollie raised his arms, signed all done and shouted, "AhhhDahhh! AhhhDahhh!" I'll try to catch it on camera.
Wow! He is getting so big! What a little man. It is so exciting to see them learning new things. What a wonderful blessing. Enjoy every moment. :o)
