14th Month Update

So my little monster now has 16 teeth and can now eat pretty much anything. He has also finally gotten over his super picky phase so that has been a relief. I am sure there are more picky phases to come though...

A few weeks ago we went back to Tomball to play...Sometimes the play got a little too rough. 

But overall these two had a good reunion 

I blame Shadow for the rough play. Sometimes I worry that someone will get hurt and I try to referee but they both just think I ruin all the fun. 

Owen has also enjoyed playing with our homemade toys. 

We have also been tapping into our musical side.

Owen also learned how to go down the stairs by himself this month so now we spend lots of time going up and down over and over again. It's a pretty great baby workout. 

And to finish it off here is a somewhat long video of Owen being a weirdy during lunch time right before bed. He gets a little silly when tired.

Owen is quite the fan of Sesame Street. I caught him doing this during an episode of Elmo's World. 

13 Months and Counting

I keep waiting for things to slow down so I can catch my breath and take a break but it seems that life just gets more busy as we go.
It has become apparent in attitude and nature that Owen is indeed a toddler now and not my little baby anymore. He is completely weened and sleep trained which is wonderful but he is also more energetic and opinionated than ever. Don't get me wrong, I love his happy demeanor and high energy but it can be very exhausting especially when pregnant and trying unpack and set up a house.
Accomplishments:
Can climb on and off the couch
Walks while holding one hand
Gives high fives
Now has top back molars and the beginning of top canines (a total of 14 teeth!)
Loves Sesame Street
Loves the swings and the park
Mastered the art of begging

At the beginning of March Mitchell and I went to the Houston Rodeo. We were to late for the rodeo part but we did get to see some young lad perform in concert. I feel so old and out of touch. I can't even remember his name and I had never heard any of his songs before but apparently he is quite famous. I also learned that I don't enjoy loud music and concerts quite like I used to.

Owen also enjoyed spending a day with the cousins. 

Fun time with friends. 

St. Patricks Day

The big Move

Our first afternoon in the house with no furniture. Owen and I ate peanut butter sandwiches on the floor and he marked his territory by wiping some on the wall.

We slept in the living room for the first night on our air bed.

 The beginnings of furniture.

Owen enjoyed exploring every part of the new house. 

For almost the first week we had no hot water, and no water at all for about 2 days. Notice the dirt accumulating on O's cheeks.

Mowing the lawn for the first time.

HAPPY EASTER
