Oliver's Sense of Smell

Oliver discovered his sense of smell by discovering the spice cabinet.  He makes stands next to it, pulls out each spice individually and hands them to Doro for him to smell.  His favorite is dill.

We have a few bald eagles around here and this one landed in the trees right next to our house.

He loves birds.  Doro threw a bunch of bird seed on the back patio and he stands at the door watching them.  This big blue bird we hadn't seen before showed up and he was in love with it.  They don't last very long because he runs over and bangs on the glass.

This is what he does now when he finds a mess on the floor.  He goes into the close and returns like this.

Doro made him his own little recliner with a cosco box and a pillow. 

"Oliver, show me...   all done"

He has always loved our shoes for some reason and lately he puts mine on and walks around the house.

Before bed he always gets a few stories.  We ask him to go get a book and he runs in the next room and comes back with whatever he wants to hear.  The other day he did it and then climbed himself onto the couch and started reading alone.
