Our baby bear is 2 years old! He is such a wonderful kid & makes us laugh constantly. Whenever we laugh at something he's said or done, he responds with, "Ollie funny!"
His birthday morning began with a gift chosen by Myles - a balloon and a blue truck! Ollie is obsessed with a blue truck in Myles' classroom, so Myles chose something similar for Ollie have for himself.
When Ollie was asked what he wanted for his birthday breakfast, he shouted "CAKE!" He settled for an apple turnover and scrambled eggs (b/c I just can't bring myself to serve him cake for breakfast.)
Next was the super big birthday weekend treat - a train trip on the Blueridge Scenic Railway! So much fun!

Once home, present time!
Ollie has been slightly obsessed with goats ever since his first visit to Papa & GG's home where they have 25+ goats on their property. He is especially fond of "baby goats", so he was quite excited to receive his very own "baby goat" stuffed animal for his birthday.

Happy Birthday, Ollie!
*On a separate note, this will be my last blog entry for a while. As anyone who reads this has noticed (aka my mom & maybe Jess Kender) I don't update as often as I used to. Our internet speed here in the woods is what some would label "annoyingly slow" - it takes a long time for photos to load, I can't get video to load at all, and the roundabout way I have to use to get pics from my phone to the blog has so many steps. Many of the updates are a bit redundant as they show up on Facebook and Instagram as well, so it may be a bit of overkill at this point. Anyway, I've really enjoyed doing this blog and intend to pick it up again in the future and will still update from time to time. But for now, I'm letting myself off the hook. :-)
XOXO
