OOPS...I got way behind

I have been meaning to update this for a while, but never got around to it. In mid April Owen went to the Lake of the Ozarks with daddy for the weekend while I was out of town for a bridal shower. Owen rode on Grandpa's boat for the first time and even got to "drive" the boat. According to Daddy Owen had a great time on the boat. He also liked to throw rocks into the lake.


Owen also went to his first Royals baseball game. The Royals were playing the Minnesota Twins. Owen and Daddy were sitting next to some Twins fans, and every time they cheered and clapped, so did Owen. I guess he remembers where he was born!

Owen loves suckers!


Owen has been obsessed with people mowing lawns this spring. He watches people mow lawns all the time. Daddy had the lawn mower out and Owen decided to give it a try! I know Daddy can't wait till Owen can take over lawn duty!



See...the kitties do love each other!

Owen mastered using a fork.

But mommy...I was just trying to get them in the bowl. I think the majority of my time is spent cleaning up Owen's messes!


Owen has started saying a few words this last month. He says hot, dada, duck, kitty (sounds more like itty), birdie (sounds more like de de) and kick (sounds more like dick!). Owen has also started throwing temper tantrums the last few weeks. He may look like me, but he has Jeff's attitude! If I tell him he is not allowed to do something, or take something away from him he starts balling and throws himself on the ground. Let me just tell you that it is far from cute! He also has started biting me when he is mad. He does not bite Jeff or anyone at the babysitters house. I don't know how I got so lucky! I am hoping the biting has to do with the teeth that he is getting. He just got his bottom eye teeth which makes a total of 14 teeth and the top eye teeth should be coming in any day now! Hopefully we will be done with teething until the 2 year molars. We need a break from the drool!
