Can we please just push the pause button for a minute? Owen is 8 months old today! Yikes. It really feels like a month ago we were coming home from the hospital with the little guy. And how can Thanksgiving POSSIBLY be next week? ARGH. It has been a very busy month, and Owen is changing every day! I just wish we could push pause because he is SO much fun right now and it feels like these moments are passing by too quickly! Here is what my little buddy has been up to this month:
CRAWLING. He went from scooting to full blown, tummy off the floor, crawling this month! If you haven't seen the scooting video though, you must check it out. Make sure your volume is up because Ben picked the best song to go with this!
WAVING. He won't always do it on demand but it's pretty cute to see it when he does. He waves towards himself instead of toward the other person. I'm guessing this is because when he sees us wave, we are waving towards him, so he waves towards himself too!
PULLING HIMSELF UP! Ben and I lowered the crib last weekend because he started to pull himself up and would always stand up and bounce. It made me crazy with worry that he'd wake up and I wouldn't get to him in time. Well this morning he decided to show me what a big boy he is and that even at the lowest level he can still see over the railing. Those pictures below are a play by play, in reverse because I can't figure out how to post pics on this dumb blog.
Owen- 2 Crib- 0.
PS He looks different b/c I had to use the icky flash due to the light blocking drapes doing their job this AM.
So, it's been quite a month! The photography business is off to an amazing start! Thank you ALL for your referrals! I've sold out of all of my sessions for November and only have 2 more for December! I even have some bookings for Jan, Feb and March! God is so good!! We have our family photos next Friday and I'm looking forward to getting some with the three of us.
Owen, you are the best little buddy that we could ever ask for! We both love you so, so much and cherish every second with you!
Love, Mom and Dad
