Five on Friday

1. Owen's favorite color is blue and his favorite shape is a star.

2. His vocabulary is growing and he is starting to know what it is he's talking about. Example: He sees an apple, he says apple. Same with a hat. Ask him how his day was and he says "good."

3. Owen loves things that go. We probably have 10 toy cars scattered around the house. He gets excited and points to the sky whenever a helicopter or airplane flies by. When we go on walks, he no longer stares at the ducks but at the street to watch the cars. And I have never seen him more excited than last weekend at the Rail Road Park when he saw the train go by.

4. It used to be that we would lay with Owen, or have him on our laps, until he fell asleep. Well not anymore. Now when it's nap time or bed time we just put him in his crib and walk away. And you know the crazy part? He actually falls asleep. He might cry for a couple of minutes but shortly after, he is out. It is really nice and we must give credit to Daycare Dawn for making it possible. She was the one who got him used to doing this and for that, we are very grateful.

5. Our camera is still out of sorts so I'm milking my Seattle photos for all they are worth. Here is another cute set of Owen and Grandma Cooper.


What kid doesn't love to lick the beaters?


Especially when they have homemade whip cream on them.

Have a great weekend!

I got to speak with Owen tonight . . . well, I should say he said "happy" to Eddy and I could hear him on the phone. Wow, he's growing up so fast. I can hardly believe it!

So he likes cars, or moving toys anyway. Hummmmmmm.

I love you guys.
