Happy Holidays from Andrew, Desiree, Owen and Kiwi!
Its funny, the holidays seem way more exciting and meaningful now that we have Owen in our lives. Not that spoiling Kiwi wasn't fun, but the dog gets excited over dropped Cheerios so buying fancy treats isn't really worth it.
The last few weeks have been jam packed. Owen finally got his first teeth (the bottom two came within days of each other) and we also got all the drama that came with teething - crankiness, fever, loss of appetite. Now the top two seem to be on their way...so Owen might get his two front teeth for Christmas.
As you can see above, we got a tree that is taking up most of our living room. So far, Owen hasn't shown interest in it which is great! He is the world champion at finding the most tiny object on the floor, so I've never swept or vacuumed this much in my entire life.
Owen still enjoys bouncing more than walking so thats another plus. I'm still trying to stifle his development when it comes to walking....I know, I admit it, I'm lazy and I don't want to run after him just yet.
Owen has learned to play with Kiwi. He picks up her doggie toys and has learned to throw them so she will fetch for him. I thought this was a wonderful development because they could entertain themselves for a few minutes out of the day - but low and behold at playgroup Owen threw a musical shaker at another mom. Whoops!
Owen is also big into kissing. Big sloppy wet kisses that are almost x-rated. He kisses the characters in his books, stuffed animals, his mom and dad and most recently Kiwi. The poor dog is really very patient with Owen.
Finally, Owen has become a ham for cameras. He sees the flash-ready light and he just makes this ridiculous scrunched up face. Examples below
This household of Sinclairs is wishing everyone a very safe and Merry Christmas!
love,
Andrew, Desiree, Owen & Kiwi
