Owen's first trip to Idlewild Park

Mommy, Daddy and Owen went to the school picnic today at Idlewild Park. This was Owen's first trip to an amusement park. It was so much fun! We started off in Storybook Forest. Then we walked the park and saw all the kids from school and their families. Next, we went to the pool and went swimming. Owen loved the water and the fountains with the water squirting out. Finally, we headed back and Owen was wore out and sound asleep. It started to pour down rain on our way to the car and we got soaked. It was a very fun day for us. We can't wait until he gets bigger and can ride on the rides.

Owen swimming in Aunt Darla's pool

Daddy and Mommy took Owen to Aunt Darla's to go swimming this afternoon. He didn't like it initially but then he loved it. At one point he was so relaxed that he almost went to sleep. Crosby went in the pool too, he had a blast!

Owen's Backyard Pool

Mommy convinced Daddy that we needed to get a backyard pool, all that I wanted was a pool that Owen and I could sit in, so he gave in and let us get one. Owen LOVES it!!!!! He is so excited to be in the pool! He wanted to splash the water and play with the toys. We are very excited to take him to his first REAL pool to go swimming.

Our new addition!!!!

Owen got his new puppy, CROSBY this past week. They are truly best friends. Crosby watches the baby and the baby watches his every move. Owen gets so excited his arms flap up and down when he sees the puppy. When Owen is on the floor he reaches for the puppy and rolls towards him--maybe this will make him start to crawl. This will be a fun summer seeing Owen and the puppy together. Crosby likes to lay on his back when he sleeps and he likes to find things to rest his head on (as you can see in the picture--he is laying on Owen's breastfriend pillow !!)

Owen's trip to Maryland

On Saturday, May 31st we took our first long road trip to Maryland. Owen was very good in the car. Mommy rode with him in the backseat on the way down and we both took a nap when we hit the Maryland border. While in Maryland we got to visit with some of our friends, visited JC Parks Elem, National Zoo, and Great Falls. It was a lot of fun,, but too quick of a trip.

Owen breaking out!

The other night, Owen was sitting in his crib while Mommy was putting away his clothes. When I turned around I saw him looking around and chewing on the crib, I know it didn't taste very good. But these pictures can tell the entire story. The video is sort of cute too! He is definitely ORNERY! But after all this ornery behavior he fell right to sleep.

Owen's First Pirate Game

On Sunday, May 25th Owen went to his first Pirate Game. Grammy and Pappy took Mommy, Daddy and Owen. Owen had a lot of fun watching everything. He even fell asleep from the 4th until the end of the 7th inning. Owen also got his picture with former Pittsburgh Pirate Catcher(1967-1980), MannySanguillen. It was a lot of fun to take him to the game and see how excited he was to see everything going on. Maybe one day he will be a baseball player!!
