Well it is Thursday, July 1st and the summer is moving along quickly. Owen is now six months old as of June 30th and he is now an official fisherman thanks to his new fishing pole that his nana and pop gave him.
As you can see, he is all smiles… just like his dad when fishing. I will post the rest of the photos tomorrow night as I am tired and need to upload 48 pictures.
It is a big weekend for chunk as he will be making his first trip up to the mountains at Tuckabuckaway - well at least the first time not in mommy’s tummy. The trips are always a treat, so many thanks to the Hansen family. I will try not to eat too many sunfish! Maybe Owen will go swimming in the pond, we shall see… his first swimming experience was a little shaky at first, but he got the hang of it and was splashing around in no time.

Over the weekend I could not find my keys and it turns out that Owen was trying to take the new car for a spin. Luckily he knows to use a seat belt, he just needs to work on using turn signals. Another thing he has been working on is eating food and boy does he love it. We even spike his food with vitamins that smell horrible and it does not faze him. As long as we shovel it in, he will eat it… next week vegetables will be added, should be interesting.
Last Sunday was a great day to be outside and we were lucky enough to have perfect weather at Ridley Creek State Park. Memom came down for the day and we all enjoyed our time since there were no clouds and the wind was keeping us cool in the shade. Owen was staying in the shade with his new hat from Aunt Michelle, luckily it fits him and he does not have Daddy’s melon just yet. After the park, Owen and Memom took a nap and I did some yard work, then it was time to relax outside again while Owen commanded from a new position… a perfect Sunday.
fyi - Owen made this post, as shown in the video.
Memorial Day Weekend was the start of summer and the start of a new open road for Owen. The road was a bit congested with construction on the way up, which lead to us stopping three times to let the little guy feed and stretch his legs. The destination for the trip was here for Tricia and Chris’s wedding in New York - congrats to the newlyweds.
The ceremony was in a picturesque setting with an Irish band playing background music. The grounds of the inn were really scenic, a truly amazing area to be at (at least for the short time we were there) - luckily I had my fair share of the beef since it was very tasty, I think Owen wanted to try some.
At the hotel, Owen got his first bath in a tub and it was basically the equivalent of washing a greased watermelon on ice, very funny to watch.
The ride home was much nicer but a little cramped due to the hand-me-down command center that rode shotgun with me… it was well worth the tight fit to see the smile on his face once he was in control shown below. Thanks again Cara, Owen loves it! Hopefully we can get back up into FBM territory for a longer extended vacation as there are a lot of neat sites to see.
I see you.
