A Whole New World

Now that Owen is moving around everywhere, he is into all kinds of mischief. He is crawling like crazy, somewhat of an army crawl, one arm to pull himself, the other to guide his way...and he only uses his toes to propel himself. It's quite impressive. I couldn't do it, for sure. He is starting to pull himself up to stuff, but much prefers to pull himself up to us, and gets very frustrated when we don't cooperate the way he wants us to. He will be 10 months old on Friday. Can't believe I am starting to think about his 1st birthday...it just can't be true. I am deciding to take the approach of a friend of mine (thanks Hadley!) and post a bunch of pictures, but not quite as often. Because once they are on the move, time is even more precious than before:)
Enough said
Loves to crawl underneath chairs


I came out of the other room the other day to find that he had made his way underneath the exersaucer.
Beach day

He had been sleeping this way, with his feet up on the side of the crib. I tried to catch it but he woke up:(
"Hey everyone. Don't mind me."
I'm thinking he might have a few silly bones.

This is a new game...chew the spoon and make it do this!
And this is the latest face. Reminds me of my "little" cousin Andrew when he was about 5.
Getting ready to head for the beach
I had to add this one because of the awesome line of drool falling to the floor from his mouth!
Daddy's birthday getaway.
Reading the Tuesday morning newspaper.
I am guessing the sun was bugging him...Ha!
Owen LOVED the pool more this time than last. I think he enjoyed watching other kids play and splash around. Every time another kid would scream, Owen would imitate it. It was pretty cute.
This is the go-to teething toy. Who knew!!!! We have bought so many teething toys, and his favorite thing to chew on is this miniature rubber duck!

He is so proud of himself that he is using the sippy cup for meals.
It's been a long day...we've got the spider man jammies on...Daddy's holding me tight, and it's almost time to say Goodnight!!!!

I love the picture with his arm hanging over the bottom of the chair. He's just hanging out. I imagine getting him out from some of his hiding spots gets difficult.

He has gotten so much bigger since you were here! I love the "OHHH" face! You can tell he definitely has a personality! And Happy Birthday Matt!

He is so adorable. Sunjay is pulling up to things too. They would have a ball together. Isn't it so much fun to chase them around all the time? Do you get anything else done? Take care and I hope the move goes well.
