To a Happy and Healthy 2012

While I wished for a happy and healthy 2012, it did not start that way. Owen had a low grade fever for a few days accompanied by his first cold. We woke up at 6:00 AM on January 1st to a coughing fit that ended in vomit. Luckily after a few days, Owen was back to his happy and healthy self. Here is the photo to prove it.

I love how this picture captures the pure, sweet innocence that is Owen.

While I would like to think sweet and innocent is all that describes Owen, there is a hint of mischievous in him. Here he is trying to pull himself out of his car seat.

He goes from sitting to a crawling position, but doesn't crawl. Yet.

Although he isn't crawling, he is definitely mobile. There is a lot of rolling, scooting, and backwards crawling. Babyproofing is in order.

He also feels the need to pull himself up when the opportunity presents itself!

His favorite time of the day is still bath time. Since this picture was taken, we have ditched the baby bathtub. Owen loves to be on his back and kick and splash. It is hilarious.

I think I have captured the brown fleck that interrupts Owen's endless blue eyes. When looking at him, it is on his left eye, towards his nose.
