My dear, sweet baby Oliver turned 1 on January 20th and I can hardly believe it.  Even harder to believe is the changes that  we've seen in him since he's turned one.  It seems as though he went from baby to toddler overnight.  He took his first steps at 11 months and was a full fledged walker by his birthday and has not looked back.  He is officially a danger to himself and any other valuables in the house.  He loves putting things in the toilet, we've found a book, a glass, a fork and tooth brush in the toilet so far.  He's gotten into tooth paste, nail polish amongst other things.  He climbs chairs, tables, coffee tables and bookshelves.   He is starting to be so vocal, his favourite words being: banana (he has banana addiction), cookie, mommy, daddy, ball, puppy and me.  He loves to play with toys and on his birthday had what we like to call a "toy overload."  All of his new toys required him to push a button or put a ball in  a hole of some type..  At one time he was standing between two toys trying to keep them both going but eventually reached "toy overload" and burst into tears.  It was too much pressure.  We love our busy little 1 year old.
