December

So this has been quite a month for us. I started potty training Owen a week before his 2nd birthday so it has been 3 weeks now. At first I was ready to throw in the towel but now I am soooo happy that I stuck with it. He is officially doing his business on the potty. He does have some mistakes every now and then but he is getting better and better at it every day. In the middle of the month we celebrated Owen's 2nd birthday. I can't believe how fast the time has flown. He is talking and conversing with us and sings and really has developed quite a little personality. It's hard to believe that in 2 more months we will have another little boy around here. For some reason Owen thinks his brother is my belly button. I try to tell him that his brother is in mommys belly but he tells me "no mommy here's broder" and points to my belly button. ha ha We also went to the Christmas light show with the Schmidt's and had some smores. Yummy. Owen just loves Brady and Brice. I also attached a train table that my parents got Owen for Christmas. He spends most of his day there playing. He just loves it.

O-H-I-O

We were driving Friday afternoon around the Ohio State stadium when I noticed that one of the gates were open to the football field. Emily got out of the car to take some pictures and ended up making some friends with the ESPN crew and they let us on the field all by ourselves. It was so amazing and Brian loved having Owen there, he was like a little kid himself. So here you go all you Buckeye fans. Enjoy!!!

Halloween Fun

ALCS Game #7

This was right when the Rays won game #7. The crowd went crazy and so did JD and Scott who were also with us.

Rays Gamessssss

Well now that the season is over we are sad but relieved that there are no more games. We went to quite a few and are a little tired of the drive to St. Pete. Here are some of the pictures that were taken from the games we've been to. Luckily, one of the games Owen went with us started at 2:00 and ended early at 6:00. He even managed to catch up on his nap during the 7th inning with all the cowbell ringing. Can you believe that??!

Fire Truck

Temple Terrace Fire Department had an open house on Saturday afternoon. It was lots of fun and Owen just loved looking and getting in the trucks. We met the Schmidts there as well so Owen was excited that his buddies were there as well.

Our Guitar Hero???!!!!!!!

Not so much......

ABC's to P's

Owen has just learned his ABC's which is neat....BUT when singing he gets really tongue tied around the LMNOP's. HA HA It's pretty funny.

Boo Boo

So what was supposed to be a relaxing Saturday night turned out to be anything but. During Owens bath that night he was splashing around having lots of fun. Well Brian took him out of the tub and placed him on the mat. Owen ran for the tub and the floor was really wet so he slipped and fell right into the side of the tub. We went to the emergency room and he got 3 stitches. He did really good right up until they had to put the stitches in. The doctor had to put his arms in a pillow case and Brian and I had to hold down his legs. It was so sad. I hated having to watch him go through that. Needless to say we didn't get Owen home and to bed that night until after 11:30. Poor little guy :-(

In the Sandbox

There is nothing Owen loves more in the world than playing outside. I can hardly get him to come inside when it is time for dinner or to take a bath!! The lawn mower he has in this slideshow Brian has made an "outside" toy. It was WAY to loud and it drove Brian crazy. Of course that was Owen's favorite toy. ha ha Funny how that works out.

Fun on a Rainy Day

Just when you thought rainy days couldn't get any better. We thought we would go to Toys R Us and play.

Cupcake Time

The first time Owen was allowed to eat a cupcake. He was so excited because it had chocolate on it.
