Someday I will catch up and post all of Oliver’s newborn photos up to this point. But for now, I want to share this little butterball at four months. This stage is so sweet. Still immobile, but smiling and interacting and interested in everything his siblings are doing. I couldn’t imagine our family without him.

Oliver got to play Baby Jesus in the most beautiful live Nativity I've ever seen. The Folsom Stake put on an incredible 4-night, 4 show per night performance for the community at Temple Hill, with professional sets and costumes and make-up. Oliver was one of 3 babies each night we participated, and he was the only one that would cry each time he went on. He wanted to make sure he left his mark. :)

More photos from the nights:

Gingerbread houses with the cousins!

Before we turn on the Christmas music, can I post just a few more pumpkin pictures? Because fall is too good to hurry through.

Apple Hill is our new favorite family tradition. It's been a year since we've planted our roots in this new, beautiful place, and it's really starting to feel like home. It's not hard, with places like this around the corner.
