Lately

Owen started at his newly renovated daycare last week. The first morning was a bit rough because none of the kids really knew where they were. After a day they all seem to love it and the best part is is that i get to watch him as he plays just outside my office window! Needless to say, i get absolutely no work done during that time!

Owen is starting to speak in full sentences and it's so neat to hear him do this on his own. The little words like 'is' and 'it' and 'and' aren't quite there, but we know exactly what he means most of the time.

Scott and i went away for a mini getaway this weekend and saw a difference in him even after a day away. He's turning into such a big boy before our eyes. Next weekend is his birthday party and he seems to know exactly what we mean when we talk about it. His birthday falls in the middle of the following week so we decided to hold the party a few days before because it would have been too close to Christmas.

Here are a couple of shots of Owen lately. And another shot of what Scott and i had to drive through to get home today! We almost ended up turning around and staying for an extra night...!
