So, we're crazy about this kid. He's been a dream.
Thankfully, he's also lucky enough to be loved by many, many others. This week, I'll put up some evidence of all the love.
We'll start with pre-birth loving from the baby shower. Some very generous friends and family threw a shower for us at Alan and Mary's house, in their lovely garden.

Krankin's masterpieces, including a cat "costume" to trick Oliver's grandmothers into
thinking he was a cat--to ensure they'd be interested! |
