Owen's first snow (almost)

A couple of weeks ago Owen got to be in the first snow of the season.

He was grabbing for the flakes and enjoying himself.

Christmas tree decorating

I am married to a photographer so
here are some more December photos (see previous post).
We decorated the Christmas tree and Owen was a big help!

Dilly was helping too.

Getting tired of unwinding the ball of lights

Owen makes a nice ornament.
bbbbbbbbbbbbb!!!

All done!

Indian Cave

Okay so we only had one post in November.
These pictures are from October.
And my camera is broken so who knows what is to come for the rest of December.

Here are some pictures of our traditional family trip to the Brownville area.
What fun!
Enjoy!

Owen's new feats

Feat #1:

Owen has started to climb up next to the dining room chairs and push them
all over the dining room.

Feat #2:

Owen has started to drink from a sippy cup with a straw.

Feat #3:

Owen has started to do the dishes.

Feat #3 is my favorite!

Toolin' around outside

It's a blustery fall day. Owen wanted to get outside to run off some energy.
He loves running up and down the driveway in his walker.
We also got a cute family picture. It even includes Gracie, Big Bird, and Cookie's behind.

Oops!

See Aunt Monaca, I take lots of tumbles and spills. I forgot to tell my legs to move with my upper body, and Mommy forgot to catch me. This walking thing is hard. Just another day.

Watch Owen stand

I wanted to show everyone Owen's big accomplishment. He is now pulling himself up on everything. The video is just a quick snippet from my camera. It is not great, but fun to watch. When you watch it you might find yourself saying, "You can do it Owen." "There you go." "Yeah!!" "Good job Buddy." "Okay... okay, wait...ummm... you can stop now Owen." ENJOY!!!

Eating spaghetti

This is Owen's first spaghetti eating experience.
No need for a fork!

This post goes out to Lynnett.
The greatest spaghetti lover I know.

Owen and Kayley

Owen and his friend Kayley during the Nebraska vs. USC game.

Kayley is 20 days older than Owen. Aren't they cute?!

Halloween costume preview

The Stuhr Museum had its All Hallow's Eve event tonight.
Owen and I went with the Vrbas family and TiLynn.
It was fun. Owen was a droopy little puppy. Jack was a JACK-o-lantern.
Too cute!!!

For Grandma Karen

I just wanted to let you know that I love you Grandma!

Happy Fall

We hope you all are having a great fall!!

Net, do you like the sweater?!

Round two of the pumpkin patch

That's right, we went back to the pumpkin patch!!
Daddy got to go with us!
Mommy's school had a family night at the pumpkin patch.
We went with some good friends, the Vrbas family and Miss Scott.
We had another good time!

Me and Daddy

Jumpin' in a giant orange pumpkin

I don't know!?!

Daddy challenged Dave to a trike race. Go Daddy, go!

There was some leg cramping, flat tires, good sportsmanship, and many laughs.
Dave kicked Daddy's behind.

Me and my new buddy Jack.
How cute are we?!

Check out my hair!
