Our Angelic Genius!


When Oliver was Latte - we joked about ticking the boxes to acquire an angelic genius!

It appears our prayers were answered and we were gifted with an angelic genius*.
*conditions apply ( as Dad's advertisements would say!)

Oliver is indeed an angelic little boy...when we are outside the house! He smiles and giggles and flirts and is generally entertaining and delightful to be with. These skills are less enjoyable at 1am, 2am, 3am, 4am and 5am in the morning Oliver!

Oliver is indeed a genius and is very quick to learn certain new skills....he seems limited in his superior ability to learn when it is best to demonstrate those skills and when to lie quietly and go to sleep, lie quietly and not roll off the change table, sit quietly and eat, not lean over the side and pretend to be seasick off the boat!

Ah yes advanced for his age his imagination is already starting to emerge!

We should have been more specific in requesting an angelic genius - a little boy who does exactly what his parents wish for between midnight and well midnight!

When Oliver was in NICU we would say to each other when he gets home we will never complain about being awake all night and any other less desirable behaviour he might display we will be just so happy he is home. We thought about that the other day after a particularly special night! We lied!
