Pumpkin Patch!

My two handsome men.

Owen's first costume of the day from Maurita

Owen is flying with his large pumpkin hat!

Owen loved the pumpkins

Ellie and Owen in the Patch

Owen is trying to give Ellie a kiss but she is not having it.

BOO to you.

He is already addicted to chocolate like his dad. I was trying to make a Halloween dish and he wanted to help, what a good boy.

He is so cute.

Kids must think there parents are crazy dressing them up and putting them on pumpkins :)

We are so lucky to have a boy who is cheerful most of the time. He is such a joy to have in our life.

He is growing so fast. I love his pants in this picture. I wish they made fun clothes like this for adults.
Owen loves the Johnny Jump-up Aunt Shellie gave him. He is still a little small for it but he still loves it.

Owen is flirting with Joceyln when she stopped by after a performance.

PARTY!!!!

Updated photos of Big O!

Smiles for Daddy

They grow up so fast. Owen always smiles at the person who is NOT holding him. They are fascinating to watch.

Owen is getting a pep talk from his soccer buddy Alejandro before the Marathon. Warming up his shoulders.

Owen: "Running in this heat can be so draining"

Owen was cheered out by mile 19 and decided to take a cat nap before running the last 5 miles.

At Sam's soccer game and no one around to take pictures of the dedicated fans, Owen and Mom.

Growing can be hard work. By the end of the day he is knocked out. I think it is all the flirting he does at daycare. He is the only boy and the girls love him, a little like his dad.

The picture explains it all. "How do I look?"

Owen is in the early stages of sitting up on his own. We were getting ready for a walk with our first cardigan made by one of Sam's relatives. Looking like Nigel in this picture, it must be the sweater!

You just have to smile when you see this picture. We were bundling up for a nice fall walk.

Polar Bear, Polar Bear is one of our favorite books at the moment. See how he can hold the book on his own (little hands on the side, look close) he is a genius. He is in the running for the MacArthur Fellowship...

Maureen Chaseley hand knitted this sweater for Owen.

Doesn't he look like a future rugby player. He is sporting the Liverpool hat that Rich Robles bought for him. We start the brainwashing early in our family.

Cuddles with Owen are the best!

TOO CUTE....

I can eat my feet Mommy aren't you proud of me?!

He fell asleep saying his bedtime prayers.

I will love Owen whatever he chooses to do with his life...

Belated Entry

It's been so long, a month and a half, I can't think what to say. Owen is losing his hair, but his smile is getting bigger. He's learning to sleep through the night, though he still refuses to go to sleep without a swaddle.

These are select pictures that are not strictly in chronological order.






In this last picture, Owen is holding a player with an England jersey, whom I've dubbed 'Stephen', which means something if you know me...


As the weather gets colder, we have a Liverpool hat, from Rich that I can't wait to break out!
