10 months old!

And Ollie is on the move!  He has become a super crawler and has begun to climb.  He will climb up your legs (after trying to chew on your toes) and over the couch, over the dog, up a table, on his wagon.  Anything he thinks is remotely climb-able he gives it a go. He is also continuing to work on standing with out assistance. 

Ollie loves to play ball.  He is getting very good at throwing the ball.  Which makes my parents dog, Darby, very happy.  Ollie will often engage in a game of fetch with Darby.  Although Darby doesn't quite understand why his throws only go a few inches. Ollie also loves it when the ball bounces off of his face.  He thinks it's hysterical, go figure. 

We are also continuing to give him a taste of pretty much everything and he eats it all! (Well, except for the pickle. He wasn't sure of that one.) He loves watermelon and goes crazy for hummus! Ollie is also very alert to what I am eating and has decided if mommy has it, he should too. (No, Ollie you can't have wine!)

Another fun development over the past couple of months is that Ollie actually pays attention to you when you read to him.  He is focused on the pages and will ask (in his own baby sign language) for you to read it again.  One of his favorites right now is 'Chugga Chugga Choo-Choo' a gift from some dear friends of ours!

We are still in AL with my parents.  So here are the 9 month pictures as best as we could do in a new environment!

If only you could see his teeth! 
He is working on 2 top teeth and 1 more bottom tooth.
(in addition to the already existing bottom tooth)

Playing ball!

This face was just too good to not include.
A glimpse into the future maybe?

Our favorite book!

Kisses for Piccadilly!
Or a nibble on her ear, it's all in perception.

We might not be able to see Piccadilly in the next monthly picture.

Darby looks huge but is actually the smaller pup of the bunch.
They were all a little over the picture taking by this time.
