Enjoying the sunny weather....wish it would last.

We have had some wonderful spring weather this past week and Kelly, Oliver and I have taken full advantage of it. Trying to stay busy outside as much as we can we went on long walks, worked in the yard, visited family and BBQ'd. I can not wait for this summer now that Oli is walking and talking it will be so much fun to take him on trips to the beach, check out different parks, swimming and just enjoy the wonderful outdoors.
Also in case any one is wondering we do take Tucker along on all our walks!
This was our last stop on our long walk today. Oliver had to wear my sweatshirt because he was soaked after playing in the water and I didn't have back-up clothes for the little guy in the stroller. He is a such a happy boy he did not even seem to mind what he was wearing. I was very thankful considering we were taking a break at Starbucks!
Having a blast in the water. Oliver loves the water so much, Kelly and I really need to get our little fish in swimming lessons!!!
On our walk we stopped and the water fountain at Esther Short park and Oliver had a blast in the water. The only thing is that is that I never brought him any back up clothes, good thing I had my hoodie to put on him :)

Some friends of mine; Stacey, her daugher Sloan, Stephanie with Abbie and Oliver and I all went on a long walk down on the waterfront in Vancouver. The kiddos did so great, it was too cute. They are all very close in age (1 yr) and were so happy on the walk, each one was just babbling and singing the whole time. Us moms just were happy to get out in this wonderful weather!
After his popsicle we had to take him to the closest sink to rinse all the sticky popsicle remains that seemed to be everywhere. The poor guy barely even fits in this sink any more but he is still happy because he just loves being in the water.
I decided to give Oliver his very first popsicle on such a nice and warm day, I knew it would be everywhere so I was smart and put the towel underneath him. He actually sat on the towel the whole time. Good job Oliver!
Oliver is learing to love the grass although it is very uneven and hard to walk on. How cute is this little golfer outfit??!

Posing like a model, too bad Kelly only has one plan for this little guy, to GOLF!

Another Baby Winn!!!!!

Yes, it is true! We are already adding to the family. Oliver, Kelly and I are so excited to add to our happy family. I'm sure Tucker in his own way may be excited, on the other hand, he could be upset because then I will really ignore him. Oh well the kids will be his best friend when they get a little older.

I am due the beginning of November so we have just recently started this new journey. We will be finding out the sex at the end of May and I will definitely let everyone know! I will try and post some pictures of my growing belly, that has not begun to grow yet.... we will see when baby decides to show considering I never had a belly with Oliver until around 6.5-7 months along. Who knew he would be a 9lb baby!!

The first Zoo trip!

He was very excited to go to the Zoo, we had such wonderful weather so Oli had to bring his sunglasses.
Posing for mom!

Oli and Daddy checking out the sea lions. Oliver kept banging his hands on the glass, oops!

He did not want to be in the stroller, when he can walk but I was paranoid and left him in the stroller. Just being a mom!

The polar bears!


Trying to pose for Dad but Oliver was clearly pre-occupied with the ground :)
He really was excited to see all the big animals and pointed at all of them and said "baby".

One of our last stops before Oliver had a melt down becuase he was so tired, it was 2 hours passed his nap time and he could no longer stand anything! Oh well we got in two solid hours of the animals at The Oregon Zoo.

Oliver is the busiest little guy, does not stop EVER~~ Now that he is a pro-walker he is discovering all the fun things he can reach at and drag around the house. We are having so much fun watching him grow and learn.

Oli's first haircut!!!!

We finally got around to cutting Oliver's hair, it was getting was too long! I don't think we got enough cut off but I was really nervous it would be too short so I think we will be heading back to another salon for our man to get his hair trimmed once again.

Our little boy is just growing and growing. He now walks everywhere and points at anything he spots. We are having so much fun with the little guy. Oliver is one busy, busy boy!!!

I added a few pictures.

Oliver is 1!!!

So I am a little late announcing Oliver's 1st birthday! He had a huge pizza party at Bortolami's Pizzaria and had no idea, not a single clue, what was going on. I would have loved to post the classic "cake all over the face" photo but.....he would not touch the cake. It was a great big pirate cake that he had no interest in. Oh well. Here are a few pictures of the big day!!

A beach trip which inlcudes "Oliver's first steps!!"

The family went on another beach trip. Kelly was signed up to play in a golf tournament at Gearhart, Or. The weather turned out to be very nice for us. Oliver had a few firsts this weekend and one was sooooo exciting for Kelly and I!

We went to the Seaside aquarium and Oli got to feed the seals and check out a huge octopus. He also touched a sea cucumber, a sand dollar and grabbed a clam and threw it on the ground. Poor little clam! On Sunday Oliver took his first steps, which was surprisingly very, very exciting. I think I even wanted to start crying, for two reasons, he is growing up so fast and secondly more work for all of us!!!!

Here are a few pictures of our main man...
