Out of the Mouths of Babes

Maddy here-

Did you know, Will loves to giggle and has learned how to say Da-da! Dave gets this sweet grin on his face whenever Will calls out his name. It is pretty darn cute if I do say so myself. Enjoy!

Swimming

Tucker Here-

Did you know that Will and I have something in common? We both love to swim! Dave took Will swimming and he loved it. Here is a video of the event.


More to come later. Dave has the camera right now and is out of town so not too many pictures at the moment!

Toodles! Tucker.

Will's Favorite Activity

Maddy here-

I really wish Will liked walks as much as I do but I think his love is this exercisor and jumping. Take a look (and just so you know, I am chewing on my bone in the back ground).




Toodles
Maddy.

YIKES!!! - 2 Months have gone by!

WOWSERS! It has been two months since we have last posted. I have done a little changing in the last two months but Will has done so much more. He is eating lots of different foods now (and not sharing) has been swimming several times, sits up without help and has become very, very mobile. He is not crawling much but probably by the next posting the little guy will be.

Will has also taken his first airplane ride this past month down to Atlanta, GA, to visit some friends. Dave and Em say he did okay but did not sleep very well - probably because they were all in the same room. Will wakes up in the middle of the night kicking but doesn't cry out so often Dave and Em don't hear him. Well, I do. He wakes me up every night - several times a night sometimes. Crazy kid! And yet, I am becoming more fond of him all the time.

Here are a few pictures from the last couple of months.

SWIMMING FOR THE FIRST TIME AND LOVING IT!





Will was invited to his first Birthday Party. The highlight for him - sitting in a TANKA truck!



An All Around Cute Kid!









That is it for now. We have some more that we can post soon!

Toodles!
Love,
Maddy

Fun with Adobe

Howdy Folks!

So did you hear that Will ate cereal today? I am so pumped. He will have food on the floor in no time. I have been waiting for this so long. You have no idea!

I mean, Em and I played with Adobe last night and had fun with the black and white feature. Here are some fun shots of Will - slightly altered.









Dave helped with the last one. It took a lot of work but it is cool shot!

Enjoy!

Next month I will take center stage so I will have lots more to say.

Toodles until then. Maddy...

February - A Month of Growth

Tucker Here-

This has been a very full month. It has snowed several days this past month, Em has still been home on Thursdays and Fridays working and Dave is still playing disc golf. In fact, this past month he has played in two tournaments. Yes, they were cold but he loved it! I think I would love it too if he would take me. He keeps saying I catch the discs and shouldn't. Well hello, I am a retriever!

And there there is Will - the little guy who has done the most changing. I must say I am very excited with Will. He began eating solids today. Yes, he is no longer a liquid only drinking baby. He is still sleeping lots and growing. He went to the doctor this month and is up to 14.8 pounds and is 24" long. He is smiling more and more every day and has started giggling. I must say, he is cute - for a human. Here are some snapshots from the last month.







Will is near the remote sitting on the couch with his daddy. He seems pretty happy.


I am just not sure if he likes the cereal. I think I am really going to like it because soon he will be eating cheerios and those are sure to fall on the ground! It is my civic duty to help keep the house clean!


Maybe more important than cleaning up the cheerios is teaching Will how to throw the ball for me. Our first attempt left both of us a little puzzled. He will get the hang of it (I hope).


Cool Uncle Colin (as he affectionately calls himself) loves his little nephew. The other night he called Em and asked to speak with Will. Did not even want to talk to Em. Boy, I know how she feels. Ever since Will has come along I have been pushed down the ladder of importance too.


Papa Charlie loves his little Grandbaby. The feeling is mutual.



And finally, to those of you who have know the Owens family for awhile know about the Toyota Tank. It finally died several weeks ago. The engine died. It had 230,000+ miles, the same timing belt throughout its life and was a wonderful vehicle. So now, Dave and Em are sharing the RAV4. May the Toyota Tank RIP.

Maddy has some pictures to share. They are more artistic so she will sign off for this month. May your final winter days be full of sunshine.

'Til next time- Tucker signing off....
