Blueberries and Salmon

So we just got back from a lovely week in NW MI with the Badgeros, The Wedges (Erika's aunt and uncle), and Erika's grandparents:



There's a lot of pictures to look at, but I've got a select few here and will post more later:

We went blueberry picking


while Owen was napping


and this picture, for me, epitomizes American dining, a short stack of home-made fluffy blueberry pancakes with blueberry sauce. The juices literally squirted onto the plate...


Finally, Doug took Erika and I to do a spot of salmon fishing, here's the spoils, yum yum!

Two months...

Owen weighed in at a hefty 9 lbs 10oz on Tuesday, he also had his first vaccinations and took them with some fuss that was short-lived...







Here we have Owen with his great-great grandmother, 95 and still kicking...



All five generations for you to count and wonder about the water in Michigan...

Cutie!

So at 4:45 this morning Sam decided to turn Owen into a little piggy with flapping ears. This kid is going to grow up with a complex! Owen was not ready to sleep so dad decided to encourage his restlessness with some fun. He seems happy to entertain dad.

My favourite things about my son so far...

I love it when he's awake, alert and just looking around.

I love it when he's falling asleep after a good feed, and he squeaks with contentment, which I can hear.

I love it when we give him a bath, because he obviously enjoys himself.

I love hearing Erika laugh at him, like when she unlatches him for a burp in the middle of a feeding, and he makes this great 'heeey, I was eating that!' face...
