Hello!

So, I'm sitting here actually writing a blog post! I promise to get better at this because I know one day when Owen is off to college (tear, tear) I will want to reminisce about all those days we had together. So, I'm making my New Year's resolution a little early- I WILL do a blog post once a week! I will go ahead and post some recent pictures and happenings for now.  Eventually I would like to blog about the past 6 months, because so much has happened that I don't want to forget.


Mr. Owen is a growin'! We just had his 6 month appt. a couple weeks ago and he was 21 lbs. and 27 1/2 inches long. He has outgrown his infant carrier and moved up to his big boy car seat which is more comfortable for him. He still isn't a huge fan of being strapped in a car seat unless he is sleeping.  He would much rather be jumping in his Jumperoo or going on a walk. I can already tell that he isn't going to be much of a relaxer (like his momma) he's going to love following his Dad around helping him with all of his little projects once he becomes mobile.  Here are a few pictures of Owen and Zane working around the house.

Washing dishes in our old house. Owen looks so little in this picture!


Working on the pergola in matching Mizzou shirts.

Watering the flowers...boys will be boys...


Older pictures that I love! Owen won't fall asleep on you  like this anymore :-(

The past couple weeks Owen has really taken a liking to Max. He usually giggles at Max when he notices him. Max is so good with Owen. For some odd reason Max likes to lay under Owen's feet...even when he is kicking him! I guess he will take any attention he can get from Owen! Another cute thing that Max will do is put his chew toy right next to all of Owen’s toys. I have a lot of cute pictures of Owen and Max on my phone. I need to find out how you can transfer pictures from your phone to your computer...hmmm...

Max with his goofy hair-cut!


Laughing at Max. I think he looks a little like me in this picture...Owen that is...



Owen is wondering if he could itch his ear with his leg???




Playing with their toys. Max is so ready for Owen to chase him!




We've been busy with landscaping our backyard the past couple weekends.  Zane built another pergola and it looks GREAT! We planted some flowers and did a yard renovation. Our sod burnt up this summer so Zane just decided to re-do our yard. It sure looked like a process! He took a couple days off work to complete it all. I'm sure he is ready for next summer so he can sit out the patio and enjoy it all. It's been raining here all day so I wasn't able to get pictures, but I will post some soon!


Here are some random pictures of Owen from this summer
