...to look a lot like Christmas! I can't believe Thanksgiving is next week! It's my favorite holiday because I LOVE food and LOVE to eat, so I don't want to bypass it. However, I did find this picture of Owen from last Christmas and wanted to share it. Too funny. I am so mean.
Owen is just like his daddy. He likes tools and gadgets and electronics. His grandpa Bruce knows this about him (and shares this interest), so he gave him this fun tool set for his birthday. Maybe he'll turn into a little Mr. Fix-it. That would be fun.
Owen's Grandpa Bruce (my dad) is a very talented woodcarver. When we were visiting him a few weeks ago, Owen pointed to this carving and said, "dog." His Grandpa Bruce was so impressed that he gave the carving to Owen for his birthday. The dog now stays in Owen's room and I can hear him on the monitor most mornings saying, "dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog..."
Owen has been working on walking for about a month, but he has finally gotten the hang of it. This video was taken a little over a week ago, so he's even improved since then!
Our family was established in July 2004. We welcomed our sweet baby boy, Owen, in October 2007, our little pink bundle of energy, Olivia, in April 2010 and our happiest little pink bundle, Eloise, in January 2013. We love each other, our families, friends and Jesus. Laughing is a favorite activity at our house-we try not to take ourselves too seriously. We created this site to keep track of sweet and silly moments and share them with family and friends. Enjoy this little snapshot of our life!
Owen: I want more Oreos. Mom: You can have one more. Owen: Lots of them...
Owen: Pet cows. Check them. (while dragging me) Mom: Owen, I don't know which cow we can pet. Owen:(pointing and still pulling me) That one, maybe.
Owen:(singing) Three little monkeys jumping on the bed. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Three bags full! Mom: Owen, would you rather have kiwis or strawberries. Owen: I want snacks (as in fruit snacks) instead.
Owen: STOP! (after seeing the stop sign) You have to wait. A car is coming. Mom: Owen, thank you for helping me drive. Owen: That's my job...to keep it safe!
