Happy Birthday Owen!

On May 23, our handsome little boy turned 3! We cannot believe how fast time went by! I still VIVIDLY remember the day he was born :) Owen has provided us with hours and hours and hours of entertainment, smiles and laughs, along with hours and hours of frustration, stress and high blood pressure :) Ah, the joys of having a toddler! :)

Here are a few things about our little Owen!:

* He is very smart and talks very well...and a lot! I wonder where he got that from :) 

* He loves spinach, broccoli and black olives..but does not like much candy..thats my boy!

* He could spend all day outdoors exploring if we let him. He loves playing in dirt and finding bugs. 

*He is really coordinated and if we do it right, he will go far in sports!

* We thought he was color blind for the longest time..turns out, he was just holding out on us. He knew his colors.

* He wants to know how everything works. Of course, there is only so much we can tell him. We do not even know how things work!

* He LOVES watching airplanes take off and land at the airport

* He loves to read and look at books.

* His attention span for coloring is very small but he can sit and play with play doh for a long time!

* He can dance. Really well actually.

* He loves to sing.

* He absolutely loves Claire and is so gentle with her.

I could go on and on and on but that is enough for now (and notice I only added the positive things about him and not things like he throws a fit if he gets dirty from food or if he falls down and gets embarrassed. ) Those will be saved for another time :) 

Happy Birthday Owen! Mommy and Daddy and Claire love you very much!

(oh and keep scrolling down, I blogged a new blog below this one about Claire!)
