Bump

Steve was gently bumping Owen into things on the tricycle and he thought it was hilarious. If you look closely you can see tears in his eyes.







(he does have a helmet, I need to pull it out)

ABC's

Owen now likes to sing the alphabet song. It's pretty funny. He skips some letters and sometimes starts midway through. Sometimes there are bursts of enthusiasm.



I've been keeping a list of words he knows and it's getting pretty extensive. Phrases too.

Last weekend - Flowers are not for boys apparently

Owen really needed a haircut, like two weeks ago.


All better:


We went to take some pictures in the daffodil like last year.

Testing them out





He wasn't sure why I put him in the flower bed



I broke one off for him to hold but he wauld have nothing of that







Daddy came out so he cheered up a bit



A bird or a plane, don't remember which






Get me out (at least he didn't stomp through them



I tried to give him the one I gave him earlier, still doesn't want it


We went over to Bass Pro Shop and walked on the boardwalk out back

Easter Weekend

Owen got a tricycle recently and wanted to take Pablo for a ride:



Hold on!




He still can't reach the peddles quite yet.

Easter weekend was my birthday so I took the day off to have fun with Owen. We went to Drumlin Farm in Lincoln and looked at all the baby animals. At first he was scared, except for the giant pig we he kept yelling oink at. He cried at the crow and the roosters but eventually liked the chickens. He liked the lambs and goats when we left as well.





Later that day we went to Natick Mall, somehow he was the one the got presents though, new sunhats and a big duplo sheet for building legos. Then we picked up Steve and headed into Boston to go to the Children's Museum and meet Uncle Gaelen at the bus station. Fun night, ended with yummy cake.

Saturday we went into Boston. Since it was a little early for lunch, we walked towards the aquarium first. There is a nice park on the waterfront were Owen ran after dogs and Steve ran after Owen.

Chasing



Running towards some dogs



Wrangling Owen



We stopped by the aquarium to see the harbor seals in the tank out front





We walked the Freedom Trail and ended up at a park again. He got tired and whiney though



Sunday he couldn't wait for anyone to wake up to get into his Easter basket. He got a tractor and some zoo animals, bubbles, and fun Dr. Suess alphabet flash cards.
