Owen is laughing and loving life most of the time. His first year molars are all just about through. He looooves cuddles and hugs - people and stuffed animals. Animal and other sounds figures highly. Anything round - wheel, ball, fans - are of great interest. Even playing ring AROUND the rosey. He has a few words but mostly we get by with sign language. Looves his big sis.

Owen notices his clothes -- especially the shoes, loves a checking out his toes with animals. He's big into animal sounds, bvoo (moo), woof, may-ow (meow) and is learning body parts - nose was a favorite,now it's the belly button. he loves reading books. This morning, besides his short
nap, he's been busy with the FP airplane, the tool bench (screws), a tonka diecast dumptruck, shapesorters, disassembling the vaporizer, and balls. Oh, singing and dancing too. He's still earning that the sidewalk and street are very different places - he thinks it's a game :( we're working on it. "out" is a favorite word too.
