Time flies!!

Wow time sure flies! Owen is growing like a weed, everyday he does something different or has discovered something new about the world or himself. Last night while I was getting his bath ready he was eye level with Britt because I was holding him while sitting on the tub. He was so interested in watching her, he couldn't take his eyes off her. He has has developed what we like to call a roar. He found his voice does lots of cool noises, and he will tell you all about it. He is full of smiles especially after a good nights rest. I've been working the early shift this week which has it's advantages and disadvantages. I don't usually get to see my baby in the mornings because I'm out of the house by 6 and daddy gets to take him to Kim's. But getting off 3:30 is nice because I can pick him up. This morning these are the pictures I got. How can this not make your morning!?

Love him so much!!
If you are wondering if he likes daycare this should answer your question. This is the text I got this morning from Kim.



Going back to work was been miserable and so hard but knowing he is in great hands helps a ton. It seems like it's getting harder and harder to leave him lately. He is just so much fun and so happy in the mornings.
Seems like I haven't blogged for awhile, so much has happened! Thursday we go see the dr for his 2 month appointment, not looking forward to the shots :( I'm excited to see what he weighs, he's starting to get some chubs!!
Merr is leaving next week to go to Baltimore for a week for work. It will be so strange we have never been apart that long. Hopefully Owen doesn't change too much while he is gone!!
We are sleeping better. He is waking up now usually between 4am and 5am then goes back to sleep. I'll take it! We started a bedtime routine which seems to help a lot. He gets a bath before his last bottle between 9-10 then bottle then he is usually asleep shortly after. He doesn't fall asleep on his own in his bed. He's not a big fan of sleeping on his back, so we usually put him in there once he's asleep. He loves his baths! That is my favorite part of the night! We recently took out the infant "hammock" so now he sits right in the baby tub and chills, it's hilarous I need to get a picture.
Owen had his first roadtrip and baseball game Friday night. Everyone thought we were nuts for taking him to St Louis to the game but he was perfect! Slept the whole way there and was an angel at the game despite the 2 hour delay. We got home at 4am, ya we are crazy. But the craziness didn't seem to bother Owen, he just goes with the flow.






We have been battling a little cough and congestion. He seems to be doing better though after a few days. We wouldn't know he isn't feeling well other than the fact that he sounded terrible. He's such a good boy! We like to say "he just loves life"!! We are so extremely blessed. With all the tragedy we have seen lately I count my blessings constantly and soak up every moment
we have with him.
