Where Has the Time Gone?

Our litte miracle baby turned 2 today! Where has the time gone? Happy 2nd Birthday Owen!!! He LOVED the card that Sarah sent him & was booging to it all afternoon :-)

Owen's Birthday Party

We just had a small birthday party this year, with both sets of grandparents. We were so happy that Grandma & Grandpa were able to come up from NC to celebrate all 3 birthdays! Owen must have known it was his party, b/c he felt better just long enough to celebrate. Grandpa S made Owen's "Curious George" cake.

Catching Up

Since I have been slacking off lately (due to illness & lack of internet) here are some pictures from the past month or so.

Owen had rotavirus (thanfully mild b/c he had the vaccine) & I had bronchitis. We were quite the pair. Most recently Owen had pneumonia (AGAIN!) & a viral infection. Poor kiddo! He has been pretty miserable & uncomfortable. We were at the Dr's 3 times last week!

Owen has been doing great at "school" and actually moved up to the next room early. We were a little bit worried b/c he is so much smaller, but he adjusted quickly. They have circle time, do letters and numbers & have a real curiculum. He is growing up so fast!

He has become a huge chatterbox, he talks non-stop & has new words & expressions every day! It is so fun to listen to him.

Another Day, Another Snowstorm

Another Monday, another messy snowstorm. It snowed all day today, so there was plenty of snow for Owen to watch them move when we got home from school this afternoon. It amazes me how fascinated he is with the plows! Even Curious George can't take his attention away from the plows. He ate his dinner on the ottaman, so he could stare out the window & watch them "dump the snow".

Owen's Bike Helmet

Today was another warm day, so we tried to spend lots of time outside. Owen & daddy played outside & ran around in the morning. Owen & I took took a walk & rode his bike in the afternoon. Of course, Owen likes to push his bike & crash into what is left of the snow (they tell us more is coming tonight!) almost as much as he likes to ride it. We decided to give the bike helmet a try today, to get him used to it in case spring really arrives. He did really well w/ it (he HATED it last summer!) & even wore it in the house after.
