Play time and My Gym

This is not Owen's time out chair...Ha! He loves to be in his toy basket, boxes, anything he can get "into". So we piled a bunch of stuffed animals on him and he sat in there for like 5 whole minutes. He loved it.

He has just recently noticed stuffed animals and will snuggle with them for a second.

The flash was not on in this picture, but I love it. Too bad it is fuzzy.

We have been going to a place called My Gym. They have classes for all age groups. We go once, sometimes 2 times a week. He absolutely loves it. It wears him out!

This was "parent separation time" where all the kids are put in the middle by their parents and then the parents "disappear." He doesn't mind at all that I am not right next to him. He tends to watch the other kids rather than play with the toys, but he's getting more aggressive each time we go.

11 Months!

Finally, after a very hectic few weeks of moving and trying to get settled into the new place, I found the right computer/camera cords and am back to blogging. It took Owen about a week to settle into his new environment, screeching constantly to test the acoustics I guess. We chose to move during what has been the hottest week this year. We made it, and Owen is as busy as ever, still army crawling, pulling himself up to everything, and testing out all of the new cabinets. He will be 11 months old on Monday. Doesn't seem possible. He cracks himself up, laughing at who knows what sometimes. He is starting to have little conversations with us, even though we have no idea what he's saying. The new trick lately is that he can point to a ball and a nose in a book when asked where it is, but won't point to his own nose yet. Too funny.

After eating peas one day for lunch, I found one in his belly button. He didn't understand why I was laughing so hard, but he joined in the laughter anyway.

He got into all kinds of mischief as we were packing and moving.

Cousin Eli came to play.

Loves to get everything out of my makeup bag. Guess I better start putting it out of reach:)

Looks like a calendar pose:)
