Owen Moments

So Owen loves wearing my high heels, he calls them his dancing shoes. On this particular day he goes into my closet and says to me, "Don't come in, don't see me naked." And then he comes out with my t-shirt (he said the shirt was his princess dress), and high heels on.

OWEN MOMENTS:
At church on Sunday, Owen asks Jake what the speakers name was. Jake's reply, "Amy". Owen's reply, "Mmmmm, my not like that name."

Owen says to mom, "Dawson has gunk in his ears you need to get a toothpick to clean it out."

Whenever we are at the store and Owen wants me to buy something for him he always says, "I want to barrow this. Please can we barrow this."

Owen had to get a picture in with Jaden on his first day of school. Owen starts preschool in a couple weeks and he can hardly wait, and WE can hardly wait too. We had Jaden's back to school night and Owen went up to a girl and went straight up to her face and just stared at her. I was calling him to come back to me, knowing that he was making her feel uncomfortable. (The poor girl was probably around 8 years old.) Owen finally came back to me and he comes up to me and immediately says, "I want to buy her." (Translation: he liked her, he wouldn't mind taking her home, wanted to be with her). Only Owen......

Owen and Dawson

One of the few pictures I can get of Owen with Dawson. He's either smothering him, or just does not want to take a decent picture with him. I hope these two grow up getting along, and being the best of buds.

Jaden has started 3rd grade.

Jaden has started 3rd grade, and I cannot believe I have a third grader. This is a photo of his first day of school. He's growing up so fast!

Owen's swimming

Owen has taught himself how to swim without any floating devices. He just took off his arm floaties and started swimming. He's been a fish ever since. We've been taking him to the pool everyday, sometimes even twice in one day.

Brothers Feet

Jaw dropping.....

Well at 5 weeks old Jake was able to balance Dawson on his hands. This is something that Papa likes to do it with the kids, and he would have loved to see this done as early as 5 weeks old. I have to admit it made me a little nervous, but then I asked Jake to try to do it again so that I could get it on video.

Oh Owen

So Owen got a hold of the marker and put it all over his eyes, showing us that he can wear make-up too.

Dawson in his swing

Dawson really enjoys his swing. Most of the time it puts him to sleep. It's hard to believe that he's old enough to be in a swing. He's growing so fast!!!!

Timpanogas Caves (July 31, 2010)

Jake took Owen and Jaden to Timpongas caves. This was Jaden's second trip to the caves and this was Owen's first trip. Jake said that he carried Owen most of the way up and most of the way down. Jaden was a true hiker, and managed to walk the whole way (good thing because dad wasn't about to carry him too).

Kyle's Visit

Kyle stayed over night with us before leaving back to California.

Dawson's current stats

Took Dawson to the doctors today because of his baby acne, and for his eye to be checked out. They gave me drops for his eye (he possibly has a blocked tear duct), and his acne should go away within the month. He currently weighs 10 lbs 14 oz. He's been waking up around 3:00 for his first feeding and then again around 5:00. There was a couple of nights he woke up at 5:00 for his first feeding, and that was nice.
