Owen hit 6 months today, which seemed like an appropriate occasion to update the ol' blog (considering it's been half his life since he got any attention on here). ;)
Owen is such a happy little guy. Unless he's hungry or tired, his default expression is something like this-- an "all-in" smile which he generously gives to anyone who will lock eyes with him.
Or this-- a mischievous tongue-out-and-up-to-no-good smile, which we expect to see often in the years to come. ;)
Can't get enough of those smiles (except maybe at 4 am)... we're still working on that.
Quite a charmer, that boy. The church nursery workers love him. His older sister on the other hand was complimented just last week on her impressive screaming endurance... ;)
Jane adores Owen and can make him belly-laugh more than anyone else. I love watching their sibling bond deepen as he grows older. I think they'll be buds. I did get my first glimpse of sibling rivalry this week, a whiny "Mom, Owen kicking me!" in the same tone of voice as all siblings in the history of the world have said to their mother. I guess I should get used to it. :)
We're so thankful for all the joy he has brought to our family these past 6 months.
Happy Half Birthday, buddy! We love you so!
