This is what Owen is like at 2

[I give up. What December and January brought for us was great, but I will never ever be caught up if I try to go back, and so I won't. January was really mello. We took a little trip to SG which was fun but I could have used some HI. owell. Owen and I have been having fun hanging out at home and bumming around. I have been working on lots of different projects..one of which I will be posting before and afters really soon...get excited. I have taken random shots here and there of Owen just being Owen here at home...so here are my unedited pics...if I edit that just makes it longer until I post...so for now they will have to do!]

whenever he sees/wears glasses he must remember the one time he saw Stockton wearing them because he says..."like Stockton"


our sweet little Zombie.
He loves cookies! If I bake anything in the Oven, he says "cookies"

trying out the new wagon...taking teddy for a spin.
This is what Owen is like now a days...


*he has a posse...teddy, elmo, other teddy and the other teddy and we have just added manny the monkey. He trucks them all over the house and often insists on taking them with us out of the house (grammas, store, whereever)

*shouts "Ang" if he feels mom doesn't cutting it.

*says "ready be nice" when I say things like "no more candy," "no more chocolate milk," "no you cannot have captn crunch for dinner" Because he must be in trouble if I am saying no? I try to explain...you are being nice, but you are done...

*he is doing great in a toddler bed. He has been in since around October and initially I would sit in his room (not lay with him, I couldn't bring myself to start that habbit) until he fell asleep. We have made lots of progress since then...we go through our bedtime routine (stories, prayers, songs) and now I can give him a kiss and a squeeze, say goodnight and leave the door open and he is asleep like that.

*he is singing along with a lot of songs...I mean his nighttime songs twinkle twinkle little star, I am a child of God and he has been picking up on his nursery songs we listen to in the car...goofy nursery rhymes and stuff. It is really cute to hear him sing and I get a little sentimental to think he is learning stuff!

*he loves to be a helper...I've been working on a few projects here at home and he likes to bring "mommys tools" and "glubs" and tries to do heavy lifting.

*he loves his "frens" and cousins. He will go through and name them all...and he really loves "Joelf". Ha I love her, too.

*When I make something for breakfast, lunch or dinner, he likes to give me the run down "cook it firs" he will say and then he will say "HAH" (you know, hot) and then "NOH HAH anymore" We are working on the "t" sound as in papa SCOTT not papa CAH
