Catching up to date

Owen has been experiencing waves of crankiness these days, which is why updating the blog has been a bit of a challenge. The crankiness may have to do with the very beginning stages of teething (he's drooling like crazy) OR the fact that he's starting to know what he wants to do but finding it frustrating that he can't reach for what he wants yet or sit up when he wants.

Luckily, we still think he's pretty cute. He is talking lots more (he's becoming a little loudmouth actually) and he's still smiling and comfortable with strangers. He's rolled over from his front to his back, but not vice versa. His favorite things currently are: 1. His thumb/fist in his mouth, 2. looking in the mirror, 3. Playing swinging-like games, 4. Baths and 5. being read to (must be read to in a sing-songy voice.

Here are a bunch of pictures to catch up for the past week or so:

Andrew took this pictures while getting Owen ready for bed. I don't know why the tissue was added to the top of his head, but its funny.

Jill, Milo and Shannon came to visit last Sunday. It was a little bit of chaos, but very very fun. (Thanks to Dieter for catching the typo - Originally I stated that Jill, Owen and Shannon came to visit, but clearly that is Milo who visited us)

Owen in his new shirt given to him from Jill. He had just got back from visiting my office. Incidently, he was quite cranky while we were visiting my co-workers. Then he got home, pooped and then was in the BEST mood.

Here's Owen chilling out on the bean bag chair. He looks a little unsure about the whole thing, doesn't he?

Owen telling his mother, he's had it with the photo shoot already!
