Friday...... time for a bath





When I was in college my sister and I would joke around about taking baths on Fridays and say it in the voice of the little boy from Life is Beautiful, I was giving Owen a bath a few minutes ago and I laughed outloud about that making my Owen laugh too, no one else will get the humor but it was a moment with my little boy I would like to remember. Owen is two and a half weeks from turning 1! I amazed at how much he grows up each day. He loves his bath and now lays on his tummy and kicks his little chubby legs really hard, its so sweet to see the rolls just bouncing around in the water. He has finally started calling Brett, dada again. It was touch and go for a while there, he would only call him bett and I know his daddy missed the dada repeated many many times throughout the day. I got a good laugh but love to hear dada as well. We are trying to plan a small party for him but with a majority of both our families here thats not going to happen.Suggestions are welcome. Brett and I went to Brian Head, it was so great to be with him all day long!I can still snowboard, I took a little time off and was a bit nervous going up the lift but hey it was like riding a bike and I loved every freezing minute!


ps My Birthday and Valentines day were great, I was spoiled and enjoyed some time with my husband. Owen has a new cousin whom he loves already, Avery Leigh Moore our little valentine, is here safe and sound.

Disbelif

I am in disbelief. My little baby boy in one month will turn one. I has a crazy dream last night and I dream in Spanish so my English always struggles the next day. Just then I wanted to type "completed his first year" but that doesn't make a whole lot of sense in English. So Owen is 11 months. I shed a few tears thinking about how fast the past year has flown by. He is so sweet and I am so grateful for him. A few people know how much finding out I was pregnant with him rocked my world. We were not planning on having a little one so soon after getting married and I cried and took five tests before Brett could calm me down. How in the world were we going to do this and with what money? But like many before us, everything has worked out. Brett had fabulous insurance that would cover maternity care when my stupid Health Plan of Nevada wouldn't so we figure Owen was less than a thousand dollars all said and done. Can't beat that. He has been a little angel baby and is growing into a classic little boy. He loves to climb on people, furniture, boxes the trash can just about anything and will find a way to conquer it. He talks non stop and likes to say mama in a really nice whine after I tell him no or take him away from something. I turn 29 tomorrow, yep the end of my twenties, they were good to me. I have some cute pics to post so stay tuned!

All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
