December Already???

Here's our happy little guy, playing with his toes. Diaper changes are an adventure these days, since Owen LOVES to grab his feet. And kick. Did I mention the kicking? He's a kicking fool! And he rolled over for the first time last week. We were at BabyTime at the library, and I didn't realize I'd put one of his toys down just out of his reach, until he rolled over to get it! That afternoon, he was rolling all over, back to front, back to front, and even back to front to back. But he stopped before Steve came home, he stopped, and he hasn't done it since! He goes halfway, onto his side, and then stops and grins at us. Silly boy.

He's also getting better at sitting on his own, he does the tripod sit very well, and if he's sitting with Steve or I, he'll pull himself up on us into a sitting position, but he still needs to work on balance.

He did much better with his shots at his four month appointment - he cried, but stopped as soon as I picked him up. He's almost 16 pounds, and 26 inches tall. What a guy!

Last weekend we had Auntie Kristi and Uncle Ryan's home reception. For the occasion, Owen wore his first suit:

Aren't my boys handsome? I love them! Owen also wanted to try his first rum & coke:Auntie Kris and Hunkie Unkie did their first dance...again!

And Owen got tired, so I just popped him into his sling, just like in Mexico. He fell asleep, and still gave Mama a chance to get out on the dance floor. (See him peeking out there?)

Now that all of Auntie Kristi and Uncle Ryan's wedding parties are over, it's time to start thinking about Christmas - yikes! November just flew by, good thing Owen and I have time for shopping during the day. We have an appointment this morning to get Christmas pictures taken. Not sure what he'll wear yet, I have a few cutie options. We got a few pics taken by the photographer at Movies for Mommies this week too. I put Owen in just a cloth diaper, and we put him on her bear rug - too cute! She also had a pair of angel wings - we'll have to see how those photos turn out.

Got to run - playdate this afternoon with Auntie Erica and Nathan, then this evening with Aunties Jill and Rachelle and Jack, Ailish, and Ella. Mama will remember her camera and try to get some more cutie pics. Cheers!
