3 months old

This week Owen turned 3 months old!!!! Can you believe it?! He is doing great, sleeping through the night, almost holding his head up by himself and cooing up a storm. He is developing the cutest most lovable personality!!! I just LOVE you Owen!!!!!!! Below are some pictures of him in his first Halloween outfit getting ready to go to his first birthday party for his buddy Dean Gafford.

Below are some pictures of Owen at Greg's football games.

Our little boy

Many of my friends have asked for longer updates on Owen....so here it goes.....

1. Yesterday I am eating lunch with him in his swing and he starts to get really still and get this focused look on his face and I know what is about to happen......he is about to poop. As I inhale the rest of my lunch I can hear him pooping and as I go to pick him up and POOP is leaking from both legs of the diaper ALL over the swing. Owen has a look of accomplishment and satisfaction on his face while I am panicking trying to figure out how I am going to pick him up without getting more poop everywhere. As I pick him up (one hand under his neck and one hand under his legs...trying not to touch his bootie) MORE poop falls out of the diaper now flooding his WHITE swing. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! All in all I get him cleaned up and frantically try to figure out how to get his swing cover off so that I can put it in the washer. Three washes later the swing cover is all clean.

2. He LOVES tummy time now. For about 3 weeks he hated being on his tummy and then one day last week he decided he likes it now and will lift his head up. YAY!!!!

3. He prefers his thumb over the pacifier now. YIKES!!!

4. He LOVES to study your face as you talk to him and he tries to make the same facial expressions and sounds as you. Below are some pictures of his concentration. First he watches me...
