The Many Expressions of Owen at 3 Months...

The big yawn!
His side grin!
So serious!
How serious can he look in a frog hat?
Owen loves his play gym!

Mom & Dad with Owen - 3 months

So hard to believe Owen has tripped the 3 month mark already! He is growing up way too fast! At 3 months, he is such a joy to have around. He smiles so much and is really starting to show some personality. He loves to talk and make girgling noises, especially when you imitate him and do it back. He certainly doesn't mind attention and loves to have someone talking to him. He is sleeping great! Usually he is down by 9:30-10:00 pm and will sleep until 8:30 or 9:00 am! These almost 12 hour nights are shocking, but he does it! He went from waking every 6 hours to this new pattern with out much in between. Sometimes, he will wake up around 6-7 am and eat, but then will go back down again right away until 10:00 am or longer. We recently started using Zantac for his reflux, although I can't tell it's really doing much good. Time will tell. We see the pediatric endocrinologist again this week to recheck his thyroid. Hopefully, it will be normal this time!

A Few Snapshots of Our Life...

Yes- Owen looks scared, but Ava loves to pose with him

Ava loves to help Daddy make (and eat) pudding in a cloud

Ava and her buddy Grandpa Glenn who played "babies" with her for hours!

What did I ever do without these two characters?

Ava's First Movie....

Ava had her first "big screen" movie experience. We patiently waited for our local theater to get the movie "Tangled", and it finally came. I stayed home with Owen and Brad took Ava to the movie (hence why there is only one picture!). Brad said she was very well behaved and was quiet for the whole movie. She was pretty distracted by other older kids in the theater though. The first text I got from Brad shortly after the movie started was "Ava loves the popcorn.". I wasn't surprised! She couldn't tell me a whole lot about the plot when she got home. She talked about the girl and how she was sad. That was pretty much the end of it. I'm excited for my turn to take her to her next movie!
