Taaah!

Owen has added more new words - open, on, off, outside, pop (when he wants bubbles), says 'bap bap boop' when he dials numbers on his phone outside, but the most hilarious one started the other night when I called for Todd while I was getting Owen ready for bed. Owen immediately started saying 'taaah! taaah! taaah!' I don't think he actually knows that it is his dad's name, but still pretty funny!

The Creek

We went to visit Mom last weekend and Owen had his first chance to play in the creek. The current is fast on the far side, but near the front bank, it is slower and more shallow. He wasn't sure what he thought about it, especially when he found out how cold it was! I held his hand out to the sand/rock bar and then let him throw rocks to his heart's content! He had a big weekend and was so tired on the drive home that he slept all the way from the Wardner bridge to Silverwood!

We also took him down to Driftwood Bay, the lake was so high, it was covering the grass! He didn't want to get in, but loved to climb the stairs up to the each level of the campground. He and mom and had tons of fun playing and we helped set up her computer before we left so she can Facetime, Skype, and email everyone from home.

A rock throwing expert!

Read, set, splash!

Checkin' In

Keeping tabs on Ryder and Ramsey
Owen originally wouldn't walk out in the grass, but now he marches around the yard and patio, playing with his ball, water table, swimming pool; or he may go out to pick 'flowers' aka weeds, water my strawberries, or the funniest part - checking on the neighbors!
