Four Months and a Road Trip

Last Wednesday the youngest member of the Topolski family turned four months. At Olie's check-up he weighed 14 lbs 2oz and was 65cm in length. Again, he weighs less than his big bro, but is longer than Truman was at this age. I never would have guessed, as you can see in the pics below he looks like a chubby monkey. These days he loves to giggle and smile. Olie has been eating more often than normal and is going through a growth spurt. Olie may also be getting a tooth since he has been nibbling on anything he can put in his mouth and his gums are nice and red.




Last weekend Oliver went on his first road trip to Pennsylvania, USA for some much needed shopping therapy. Oliver had three of his favourite aunts with him: Tina, Misty and Karyn. He was simply an angel and hardly cried at all. It was a pleasure having him with us, although I must say I am looking forward to shopping alone next year.




I don't have any new pictures of Truman, but last night I had a parent-teacher meeting. Aldonna and Karelle only had wonderful things to say about the Tman. They call him the "senior" in the room, that he is a very smart, helpful boy and is simply a pleasure. I was beaming with pride. When Truman first transferred into Preschool 2 (which was just after Oliver was born) he did have some transitional issues that have passed. I am so proud of you Truman!
