Just looked at the calendar and realized that October is here and I should probably post something on my blog! Also, sounds like my mother has found my blog and may be checking in regularly so that adds a bit of pressure! "Hi, mom! Good job finding me! Very impressive....considering your extreme lack of internet knowledge! :) "
Owen is now about 5 and a half months old. Amazing how fast time flies and how slowly the baby weight dissolves. (Can I get an amen!) I have started running regularly again but have yet to see any real results! Luckily the weather has finally cooled down and Owen is growing to love rides in his fancy ride from grandma (thanks again Mom!). So...the running shall continue and hopefully my jeans will quit shrinking in the wash if you know what I mean! :)
Owen is getting SO fun. With each new month his personality evolves and his new skills dazzle us! He is eating so many yummy fruits and vegetables but tries to eat EVERYTHING! He is getting quite good at grabbing things off our plate, so we have to be pretty careful these days! Also, it is amazing how quickly he understood what opening the freezer/fridge and grabbing a spoon meant! His face lights up and he starts to wiggle in his high chair. I cannot move fast enough for him! He loves his food!
We are also on the verge of crawling. He attempts to scoot on the floor but the poor kid is at a serious disadvantage. We have 1 rug in the whole house and the rest of it is wood flooring or tile. Add that to the fact that it is now Fall and quite chilly so he is wearing pants now. Not exactly a 'crawl encouraging' combination. I am convinced however that he is able to crawl in his crib. Somehow he manages to shove his upper body into the far corner of his crib no matter where I lay him down! What a nut! :)
All in all, we are having a GREAT time. Owen is healthy and happy and still growing like a weed! We are officially in 12 month clothing on a regular basis.....I feel ike we skipped a whole size, or two. I had better have another boy because I have LOTS of unused clothing in let's say the 6-9 month size just lying around! Owen and I have gone apple picking a couple times and will head out to the pumpkin patch today with Mike to find some pumpkins for our front stairs. I love this time of year and that love has been amplified by having Owen to share it with. I am bracing myself for Christmas time....it is going to be so much fun I can hardly stand to think about it! :) Ahhhhh!
