Happy Thanksgiving! Owen- Weeks 7 and 8




 Sorry I missed a week updating the blog… we were pretty busy around here while my sister was in town. We did lots of shopping and hanging out with family. We just got home from dropping them off at the airport. It's always sad to say goodbye since we don't get to see each other very often :(

I can't believe it's December already! We decked the halls at the house this weekend and I bought some christmas tree scented candles today (we have a fake tree). I absolutely love this time of year!

Owen's Milestones
- You smile a lot now. The place you smile the most is on your changing table… I think maybe because you can see me really well and I talk to you.
- You can grip my finger. I've tried a rattle and you won't hold onto that yet, but I don't think it will be long.
- You can entertain yourself in your "gyms"  (yes, we have 2) for about 30 minutes twice a day so that mommy can get things done around the house. You can hit the hanging toys, look in the mirror at yourself and kick the piano.
- You will nap during the day IF someone holds you the entire time or IF we are out of the house and you are in your car seat. You are still a pretty good sleeper at night.
 - Your 0-3 months clothes are getting tight… I can't believe it since you aren't even 2 months yet. Mommy wants you to slow down growing!

Here are some photos from the last 2 weeks:

Our living room. We got new stockings with our names on them this year :)

Please excuse any typos… these days I often have to update the blog while holding a baby or very quickly while he sleeps.


Until Next Time…
