For a couple of weeks it was -10 degrees every morning on my way to work and made it up to a whopping +5 degrees by the time I went home.
Oliver doesn't seem to mind one bit! His spirits are absolutely undaunted. He has found particular joy in playing peek-a-boo (he likes to actually be under the blanket) and using Barley as a step-stool to get onto things. Oliver can now sign (ASL) the following words- Dog, Mommy, Daddy, Uncle, Grandma, Milk, Food, I want, More, and Big (I'm trying to teach him poop and fart but Malinda does NOT think it is funny at all). Sometimes they all look like the same sign, but its pretty cool when you can tell that he is talking to you.
He laughs a lot and loves bath time.
His favorite toys are cars and trucks (and watching real ones) and bouncy balls. He'll throw the ball and then chase it around the house, laughing the whole time.
Malinda is still playing volleyball and kicks some butt! She'll get 5 or 6 points in a row just on her serve (the other team does a lot of ducking and dodging). Malinda is also on the amateur baby-wrangling circuit. She swept regoinals last week by successfullly changing a diaper in under 4 seconds (about the same time it takes a Dodge Viper to hit 60 miles an hour!).
I'm playing basketball (I learned to play this year) a lot at work and church and also get to do karate three days a week at work.
Mostly though, we like to chill and hang out with eachother. Of course, its too cold to really do much else!

I'm so glad you updated your blog!
Oliver is unbelievably adorable! You guys look wonderful, and we hope you are loving out there. Whenever I get to visit ward primaries I think of you guys-we miss "Sisto Mill-O". : ) (and you too Josh!)
Yay! I have missed the blog updates. We miss you guys.
Go Oliver,
When Babies sign it makes thinks a little easier. Keep up the good work. I do want to see you post some pictures of Josh dunking the ball.
