owen got baked…

 
owen made cookies today. he wasn’t as excited as we were hoping he would be. he knows the word ‘cook’ and he knows the word ‘cookie.’ so, when you ask him if he wants to cook cookies, he looks at you all funny-like and gets confused.
of course, he hears, ‘cookie’ and runs [...]

sequel update

kara went to the hospital this wek for four hours to get tests to see if she has gestational diabetes.  evidently it is fairly common in pregger people, but definitely wasn’t something she had with owen.  maybe this has something to do with my previous post about her love of oreo cookies and  ben and [...]

owen and stewie.

is it weird that my kid’s favorite show is family guy?  he asks for it by name when he wakes up.  i put it on, of course, because it beats elmo or mr. noodle any day of the week.
the thing i worry about is that he thinks stewie is hilarious.  he knows that stewie is [...]

ready for two kids?!

  
i survived!  i sucessfully took care of owen and caden for an entire day, well 7am to 5pm, but still i feel pretty accomplished. 
we started the day out with pancakes, drawing and then some playtime in owen’s room.  the day was nice so we went outside to blow bubbles.  well, owen blew bubbbles, caden mostly [...]

cleanliness is next to…

 
owen has always been something of a neat freak.  we’re not sure where he got it from — kara and i aren’t exactly neat people.
we were working on the downstairs bedroom today — installing some wardrobes to expand the closet space, because my computer has taken over the closet at this point… :)  as we [...]

words to live by…

owen is picking up language much faster than i think we anticipated. he’s expanded his vocabulary to include such staples as: motorcycle (ugh), elevator, helicopter and some of the simpler ones too: hello, bye-bye, and please.
he’s taken to conversations on the phone (whether you are on it or not) and will actually pace around [...]

go, marc and aimee, go!

they’re due today they’re 7 days overdue today!

back from my world tour…

…so… i’m back in town now.  in the past 7 days, i’ve been to prague, brno, london and baltimore.  it’s been a lot of airline flights  over the past two weeks.  i’ve never been afraid of flying before, but after owen came around, every time the plane jiggles a little bit, i have this fear [...]

silly boys!

i just love watching owen and caden play together. they have such a pure friendship. they truly get excited when they see each other. they even have a secret language that only they understand. apparently, owen is hilarious because caden laughs at everything owen tells him. best of all, they [...]
