Back in Action
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.
Road Trip
Memorial Day weekend, the ultimate supply and demand… keep that gas price up, right? We will be adding to the demand so if you pay $2.40 per gallon don’t complain, just ride your bike to where you want to go.
19 Weeks
Today makes it week nineteen and the biggest news is that Owen can now roll over to get out of his tummy time! He is even starting to do tricks like double foot grabs, so extreme! So much has changed during the past four plus months. Here is a one day old photo taken while celebrating New Years Eve at the hospital – pretty tiny legs, right? Now he is a little buddha and smiling and laughing while enjoying a nice spring morning in his crib. Next weekend is a road trip to Ithaca, New York and it should be fun.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day V2
Happy St. Patrick’s day once again… we are celebrating again since Owen still fits in the outfit. If you look back here you will see that Owen did not really fit into his outfit, but we needed to get some green on him that day. One and half months later, the boy is filling it out really well.
The video was from last weekend when cousin Jason had his first holy communion. Samantha and Owen were battling it out on the ground, Owen was more interested in having his older cousin use him as a toy to roll around. It is amazing how quick and cute she is – he will be there soon enough.
Also have some pictures of his new fascination with water during the “rinse cycle” when his tubby is coming to an end. The focus he has can be seen on the Bebe pod as he will just block everything out and focus on the task at hand. He can be serious but he knows how to laugh and have fun… kind of like his dad.
p.s. The ham head in the mirror shot is not grease, it was water since I had his hair spiked up prior to playing.
p.p.s. Please let me know if the video is working for you or not. Seems there are emails stating the last video did not work and it is due to the new mp4 format… you can try “right click, save as” on that link with your mouse to save it directly to your desktop.
I see you.
