The other day Oliver and I were playing out on our porch with his cement mixer. We put blocks in the back of his cement mixer because #1 they don't roll like the balls that came with it, and #2 we can't seem to find the balls because of #1. So Oliver was pulling the lever down on the cement mixer but there was only one block in it. He saw another block by the door so he crawled over to the block, picked it up and showed it to me, then crawled back to the cement mixer with the block in his hand and put it in the back of the mixer. Now he pulled the green lever down again making it go around and around and he laughed and laughed because it works so much better with 2 blocks than 1.
Next story happened this morning when I was making his breakfast of oatmeal. I had set out some cheerios for him while we waited for the oatmeal and this is what he was doing.
He would pick up the cheerios from the middle of the tray and put them in the cup holder of his tray. I would take them back out and put them in the middle because he can't pick them out of the cup holder to eat them because he can't see them so they just end up on the floor. This went on for almost 5 minutes eating a cheerio every once in a while but mostly moving them to the cup holder and me putting them in the middle.
And one more story because he's so smart! Last night we ate supper at my parents for Grandparents Day today and Oliver was crawling around like usual. You can't contain him now, he's always on the move and watch out because he is fast. Anyway, my parents have a portable air conditioner like we do and we let him play with the remote at our house because he is always trying to get remotes, phones, calculators, etc (I think it's the buttons). So he crawled up to the air conditioner and grabbed the remote from it (it fits into the unit itself to when stored). He started playing with it and then tried putting it back in the slot but he wasn't quite tall enough to snap it back into its place.
