The Discovery Of Dirt

The day we put Owen in the swing we also let him play around in the dirt a little. Seeing a baby in dirt is great. There is a confused and excited sense of the unknown. It's funny too because they try to put everything in their mouths so Owen just grabbed a handful of dirt, sand, twigs and whatever else and went straight for the mouth. It was a fun preview of things to come when you have a little boy.


My God, this stuff is everywhere.


And you can pick it up!


I officially love dirt.


Okay, I'm not getting this. Why wouldn't you want to eat dirt?


I just discovered dirt, I have Mom's arms around me and my trusty twig at my side; this could work.

Uh oh. Soon you'll have to check his pockets before you do laundry! He looks wonderful, you guys. He's gonna absolutely love the outdoors, it's already started.

Cute picture of you and Owen, too, Carrie. :0)

Love to you all, Mom
