You are 5-months old already!!!





Filho, amor da minha vida, you are 5 months already!
You are almost sitting without help of your worm. Today you were playing inside it and I laughed, and you immediately turned around on your own to look at me.
It took a while for Miss Claire to tell us, but you are already rolling over. You have not done it for daddy and I yet though...that is ok, it will come!
You are the happiest baby we have ever met. All we need to do is look at you, and you open the biggest smile, brightening the place and making everyone around you happy.
Today you went to work with me, and everyone there was in love with you (of course). We spent a couple of hours there, and then went home. You are not feeling too well, but you still smile. If only all mommies in the world had an easy one like you!
You came to our lives to bring so much happiness, Oliver. And it is so peaceful with you around.
Mommy wants you to know that she will always be here for you, always. I love you so much it hurts.
You are growing so fast. This week you did not want to eat jar food, and it is ok. Take your time...we are by no means rushing you, filho. You can stay this little for as long as you want...
Thank you for choosing us as your family, little angel. We feel truly blessed.
Your brother clearly does not know what it is to live without you...and neither do we.
Daddy and I have not been on the beach for a while, but looking at your face gives us the same peace as when we used to be able to sit and watch the ocean.
I love you, love you, love you, filho. Thanks for being part of me, part of my life, for being mine.
Te amo mais que a vida...

Oh My God, look at those eyes! So sorry Oliver has been under the weather. It always brings me comfort in the morning to see him in Red. My face lights up and I say, "Good MORNING Oliver." As if somehow I think he'll keep a watchful eye on Miss Kelly. Yesterday I asked Sara, "And who do we take with us to the Children's Museum?", and she said...."NOAH!" Your boys and my girls! What a fun group of kids! I'm with you...we miss the ocean too! Let's do breakfast this week! Lori
