College Football season is here!

Owen had a few words to share -------GO MICHIGAN! I am sure Brett will want to add to this post later--probably something in red & silver with a buckeye--what is a buckeye anyway?

Owen's wrestling skills

His normal sleeping and waking up position

The bumper has been pulled of the slats and is wrapped around him twice , just look at that proud smile!

Giving the monkeys kisses and big loves

On most afternoons my little boy will wake up from is nap with his blanket on him and in pretty much the same position I laid him down in, but lately he has been fully wrestling his blankie, the fitted sheet and just today the kid managed to pull his crib bumper off, wrap it around him and start a conversation with the monkeys and elephants on the bumper! He was singing and talking like he usually does after his nap but with alot more enthusiam. He loves to read his Little People go to the zoo book and the monkeys and elephants on his bedding look just like them, so he probably was thinking--alright there you guys are, nice to meet ya! So silly!

Friends forever

Owen loves his cousin Bosty, and I think the feeling is pretty much mutual for her. She loves to hold him and give him bottles but especially she loves to give him a "big collete kiss" and tell him "love you too oweie". Its really sweet and I love watching them together. She thinks I am finally sharing him and still gets a little upset with her mimi if I don't share him enough. He gets so excited to see her he kicks and talks, saying his new sound of ba ba ba ba---maybe saying bosty who knows. As you can see bosty is a tiny little thing and my boy continually grows, I think there is maybe a 10 inches between the two. I am looking forward to seeing these two grow up together and be good friends .

I just love pictures of my Dad with his grandbabies. Everyone of them loves their Pumpa, Owen especially loves my dads songs, and likes to sing along. I am so thankful to my Dad for being such a good grandpa. He learned from the best.

5 Months

Owen is growing up soo fast! I am amazed at how much he changes every day. He is still a chunky monkey but getting longer every day. He loves his cereal and pears soo much and today added one of my favs to his menu--green beans! My Dad loves to try and sneak him grown up food he has tried to let him gnaw on a hamburger, lunch meat and today a croissant, so silly. Owen is rolling all over the place and prefers to scoot himself backward instead of a normal army man crawl. He has also stole the hearts of many ladies at the old people Smiths we shop at,I am seriously the youngest person in there at any time of day. We have been going on long walks to help with afternoon naps, I have totally spoiled him and beside going to bed at night he won't sleep with out me holding him real snuggy. I love it but I know he needs to sleep without his mommy holding him.He his too cute for words!
