Owen's Story

Friday was a fun day for all.  Owen had a playdate with two of his good friends, Noah and Annalise.  Then for dinner, Mommy got to have a playdate too with some of my friends!

Saturday, he went to Nanny and Poppy’s and got to see his great Aunts and Uncle.  He was a little shy, but afterward he said about how nice it was to visit with them.  The leprechaun came to our house on Saturday and hid a pot of gold in our backyard.  Owen had so much fun looking for it, and loved the loot that was inside.  Logan on the other hand wasn’t too sure about the whole getup…

Today was spent getting ready for this coming week.  We did have some relaxing too.  I loved this picture I got of Owen today…

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, and have a great start to the week!

Not much happened here yesterday, so I took the day off from posting.  Didn’t want to bore you with “we did laundry!”.  Owen has been doing good.  He started getting a little bit of a cold last night, and I don’t know if it was that or his legs, but he had kind of a restless night of sleep.  He even slept in this morning, which doesn’t happen too often.

Nana and Pap Pap came today so I could go to a MOMs club activity.  Owen, of course, loves his visits from them and has so much fun playing.  He received this very sweet gift the other day from one of Jeff’s co-workers, it was the story of Easter and a basket of eggs that goes along with the story.  It is really neat because they explain the Passion in a way that children can understand.  It was perfect timing because ever since we went to church a few weekends ago, Owen has been asking a lot of questions about God.  He really likes the story.  We have read it the past two nights before bed, and he couldn’t wait to show Nana and Pap Pap today.

Both boys were sad to see them go.  Here they were looking out the window as they were leaving.  I was trying to work on creating a “silhouette” effect with the picture but I didn’t really achieve exactly what I was looking for.  I’ll have to keep practicing.

Pretty uneventful day around here.  We did have a long lost friend return.  Meet Dig:

Owen named him this last fall when he was building his home for the winter.  Owen was so happy to see that he has returned and out and about looking for food since that means that Spring is coming!

We had a great morning.  We stopped by Owen’s school to say hi, and Owen got to play outside with his friends for a little while!  He had sooo much fun.  It was so good for him to see his teachers and friends.  They haven’t forgot him… as soon as we went into the classroom they all yelled his name!  He was in such a good mood for the rest of the day too.

So much so, he kept telling me he wasn’t tired and didn’t want a nap, so I suggested laying on the couch and watching some of his shows.  It wasn’t long before he was out.
