Our 22 month old

I'm not going to post 22 things about my boy today, it is just too long and boring to most. I will however post what Owen is up to these days.

- Owen has really started getting interested in trucks, cars, airplanes and trains. He has always liked them, but he LOVES to play with them much more now, maybe even more than balls. Here he is at breakfast downtown taking about all the trucks we see driving by.

 

- Owen talks all the time, he tries to tell us stories now about past events, which is my favorite thing. I love to ask him about places we have gone or things we have seen.

- Owen recently had his first major accident. Luke was riding his bike and Owen was running the opposite direction and they had a bit of a collision. It was a little heart wrenching for mommy, but as soon as we knew both boys were okay, I was okay as well. Owen loves to tell the story about his boo boo on his nose. He says "do bike nose ouch".

Take a look at that big ouch....

- Owen loves to watch sports with daddy, the Browns recently had their first preseason game so Owen and brad snuggled up to watch. When Owen sees football, he barks like a dog (as in the Cleveland dawg pound, thanks brad). He calls football "ooh hoo ball". This child loves sports of all kinds.

- Owen went to his first baseball game this weekend. For a child that loves sports I feel a bit guilty for just now taking him to his first game. A friend of ours won a suite at a Legends game from a silent auction so we decided even though it was a bit past bedtime we were going to try it out. The entire drive there Owen was talking about the baseball bats that he was going to see. He had a great time and even gave the mascot a high five, which he is still talking about.

- Owen now knows his colors. He describes everything he plays with or sees by stating the color of the item first.

- Owen is also very into letters, he loves to sing his ABC's which really sound more like "BTUCW". He jumbles the letters around when singing, but its a start.

- We are working on getting Owen ready for baby. We talk a lot about baby and when baby is moving Owen will sometimes come over and lay his head down on my belly to see if he feels something. I'm not really sure if anything will prepare him for the big change, but we are trying to talk about it with him anyways. Baby should be here sometime on the next 11 weeks, yay!

- This week I made a key lime cake to celebrate Brad's 32nd birthday. Brad worked late on his big day so Owen was pretty excited to stay up past bedtime and eat cake.
