Mr. Onederful

Well, it is official! My little man has turned one!!!!! At times I cannot even believe we are here already. It is almost as if the first 10 weeks of his life never happened or happened to a different sick baby. Owen is completely out of control now and his new nickname is "monster!!" He is crawling faster than I walk! He has taken a few steps too, but always resorts to what he knows best! I think he will walk soon because he always wants to be put down and he tries to take steps more and more! He is not talking just yet but still gets his point across by grunting! This is definitely not my favorite but we are working with him. He refuses to sign and just stares at me like he knows exactly what I want him to do but is refusing on principle:) (Reminds me of his Daddy)

For his actual birthday, we had a party for him in AZ. We had lots of family and friends and many he had never met! It was an amazing day. This Sunday we will celebrate his 1st birthday again with friends here in TX.

Our trip to AZ was so much fun and I finally got to meet my 7 month old nephew, Johnathan, who was just too much fun and was super kissable;) I also finally got to meet Owen's future wife, Analee, who is 2 weeks older than Owen. Owen had so much fun with both of them and hopefully we will see them very soon. I knew that I missed living around family but this trip has made it that much more apparent. It was so nice to be around my Mom and siblings but also my Aunt and Granny were such a big help too. Howard and I even had a date night for an entire night! The help is definitely a bonus. Maybe someday we will live near family again.........
