| Doesn't he make an Oreo look good? |
Well I didn't see it happen, after I helped him dip is Oreo in milk, I turned around. However Adrienne said she sat there shaking his head like that while he was eating his Oreo! Good Times!

18 years of Ollie.....Yup worth celabrating!
 |
| In one year Oliver will be going on a mission. He is taking a missionary prep class. This day Trevor went down and moved the car to see what would happen. It was funny because he moved it to where they had parked the prior week, so it didn't take them long to find it, just made them (he and Paul) think....What the, dang this is weird! He will make an awesome missionary! |
 |
| He got everything finished and signed, and now he is tracking down some letters of recommendation. Then he will need to get together a board for his Eagle Board of Review! Almost there! |
 | |
| So happy happy birthday to my Ollie dear, happy days will come to you all year, if I had a wish then it would be, Happy Happy Birthday to you from ME!!! |

My Beautiful Blond Baby Girl
As I was laying down with Edward this after noon, because he is just not taking a good nap today, I closed my eyes for a second to have this memory come flooding back. I don't know what sparked it, but here it is.
It will have been fourteen years ago on August 2nd. I was riding in the helicopter headed for Primary Children's Hospital. Not know what to expect, I sat there looking down at my beautiful little girl. She lay there with her eyes closed, not breathing on her own. I look at her golden blond curls, and wonder if I will ever get to do her hair again. She looks like a little china doll with her eyes closed, but this day her head was a little miss shaped, with some bruising. I don't think I have ever felt more alone, as we fly over the green hills, and mountains below dotted with many mountain lakes and ponds. I had put a little braid in her hair that morning, her hair was finally long enough. I ask the flight medic if I can take her braid out. Trying to be strong, because that is the only way I was allowed to ride with her to the hospital. I take the little rubber band holding the braid together, and let the braid fall loose in my hands, and the golden locks fall between my fingers just praying this is not the last time I get to hold her hair in my hands. The 45 minute trek is over, we are at the hospital. What a relief it was to get off the elevator and see my 2 wonderful sisters there, and one amazing brother-in-law. I will be forever thankful for you and sacrificing your time so you could be there for my beautiful blond baby girl so she wouldn't be alone, not knowing if I would be able to ride with her or not.
I can still feel her hair between my fingers, and every time since when I have been able to to her hair. It has been 20 year since I first found out I was pregnant with her. I don't remember if I always knew that little baby was going to be a girl, but in my heart I want to believe I did. What a blessing she is to me and Trevor, and we treasure every minute of everyday we get to spend with her. I know with every passing day she is getting one day closer to getting married and starting a family of her own. I think secretly I hope it is still 3-4 years out and she will still want to stay here at home, but one of these days she will be gone from our home and living on her own. I only hope I have taught her what she needs.

Adrienne is Home!
Edward is supper happy that Adrienne is home. When she was gone he kept going down the hall knocking on her door and on the bathroom door, yelling "Adean"! He was so happy to see her this morning. Then she left to go to school, and he just sat in the hall wondering where she went. He was super excited to see her this afternoon when she got home. He wouldn't let her put him down, and he just kept playing with her. He sure loves his big sister. Just a side note...He loves his brothers too, and is excited when they get home also.

All in a text!
Today Mary was cleaning out her phone, and sent me a few pictures she had on her phone. I texted back "Cleaning out your phone?" the reply was "yeah" . Edward wanted my phone so bad he kept trying to grab it, he finally just shouted "HI"! Yes I let Mary know he wanted to say hi, but if I had called her he would not have said anything. So I also shared with Mary a few things he had been saying, and didn't once wish her a happy birthday. Wow how selfish.
Anyway earlier he was playing over by the back french doors, because he can see out there, and he likes it there. Well he knocked over the fan, and I looked around the corner to see what had happened and he looked and me with a surprised look on his face and said, really loudly "Wat iazat?" apparently we say What is that" a lot to him when giving him things, and showing him things? his look was super funny.
Then the other day he was standing on the couch and the dogs came up, and he stood up tall, and very seriously, and loudly said "dow dow" telling the dogs to go down. Yesterday when they started barking, he started yelling "dogs". I kind of think loud noises startle him and he fells he needs to yell back, so when I was vacuuming he was making the same noise the whole time it was funny. When I yell and the kids to come (because they are in the other room or downstairs) he will yell their name right after me. Adrienne is Adean, and Braden is Daden, and Oliver is well he just yells when I say that, all thought he has tried to say Oliver's name before. Paul (Oliver's friend) was the first name he said which was funny.
At this point all the animals are still MO MO, but he does say dogs, but I don't think he understands the difference yet. He is just a lot of fun to have around, and makes it very hard to get anything done. We sure love him tons!!
He he getting very brave in his walking, and standing up on his own with nothing to help. I have also been working with him on the stairs, and well today Oliver left the gate open, and we found him down on the first landing, yup he crawled down the stairs on his own!
