I can't believe Owen will be a year old in just 2 short months! I've already started planning the 1st birthday party. The theme is going to be…. The Hungry Caterpillar! I've already started working on some projects for it and I think it's going to be very colorful and cute!
We had Owen's baptism this weekend as well. He was perfect. He let the minister hold him, was very alert, and didn't cry even when the water was splashed on his head. After the baptism we had a luncheon at our house and he was awake and happy the whole time. We had to take him on a walk after the party to get him to finally take a nap (he hadn't really slept all day and it was 3 by the time everyone left). Owen never wants to miss anything… he is a party animal. It really is funny to see his personality develop. We didn't get to take very many pictures on Sunday. The church took some of us that they are going to send and I plan on putting Owen back in his outfit later this week and taking some photos. I will post those photos later.
Okay, sorry this post is kind of short but I have a feeling next month's will be better…. stay tuned ;)
Owen's 10 Month Milestones:
- You have 7 teeth now!!! Last month you only had 2 on the bottom... now you have 3 on the bottom and 4 on the top. All that teething and you still slept through the night most nights!
- Your 1st official word...... UH-OH. I consider it your first word because it's the first word you've used consistently in the right context.
- You are crawling all over the place and pulling up on furniture. You love to stand at the coffee table ottoman and trying to open and close drawers and cabinets.
- You have to be held facing out... which is getting hard now that you are getting so big. When we try to hold you any other way you push your way into the position you want to be in.
- You can clap all by yourself.
- You were baptized!
- You are starting to have an interest in books... which is good since you have an entire library of them. I think you have more books than mommy and daddy combined!
- You love exploring and have no fear.
- You love Curious George and Mickey Mouse's Clubhouse.
