Fun times

One thing for certain about this house is nothing is ever dull...EVER! Owen is now 3 and 1/2 and has every bit the attitude, I mean personality!  He is such a good little boy and loves to be active.  Just to kill time he sometimes runs circles around the backyard!  He was enrolled in gymnastics but with the summer here and hotter than..well really hot, we are about to start swim lessons.  This will be his first time in lessons without me in the water with him.  I'm excited for him.  He LOVES the water!  One thing he loves more than water is being a cowboy.  He wears his hat and belt and boots all the time.  With shorts and a t-shirt or all dressed up.  We just came back from a visit with Duane's sister in Prescott and they have horses.  Owen was passed down an old hat from his cousin.  You thought you would of just handed him the moon.  He also borrowed a belt (cause we forgot ours, silly forgetful mommy).  It had a buckle on it. Again one of the many highlights of Owen's trip!  At the top of Owen's things he loves list would be his brother Luke.  He ADORES him and always wants to be near him.  I encourage this because I give it one year and it may not be the same.  Owen cried the other day because I took Luke with me to a graduation.  He didn't care that I was going, nor that Luke was getting to go and not him.  He just plain out loves him so much he didn't want to be away from him.  I love it!  On to Luke, he is getting so big and is SUCH the momma's boy.  He now has 2 teeth and is so amazingly close to crawling.  Today he is 7 months.  He's eating baby food and still on formula.  Not quite as big as Owen was at this age but Luke has a ton of hair and the chubbiest cheeks!
Just a side note before all the pictures start, I have been cleared of my blood clot in my leg and am off my medicine!! YAH!

 He ran much faster out of the water than he did in it.  That is Owen's cousin Cooper.

Pondering life's many wonders and what it all stores for him and his future....

or just wondering when it's lunch time!
