Catch Up

Sorry i've been a bit sparatic in my postings lately.  I'm not able to keep up to date as well as I'd like to due to the fact that we are still computerless..but hopefully that will change soon due to the wonderful tax refund! :o)


Biggest News I currently have..Our little dude turned one yesterday!  We had a family photo shoot, and the pictures turned out awesome, thanks to our good friend Michael Coon.  (pictures to come!) OWEN TOOK 3 STEPS ON HIS OWN ! i'm so proud of him..we know he'll be walking too soon!  We had an AWESOME day and did lots of "firsts"
1. first hair cut
2. first cake
3. first mac& cheese
4. first pizza!  :o)
So to catch you up a bit..let's start in feburary...

Owen is 1 now!! wahooo!! He crawls up our steps alll the time! Don't worry, he hasn't fallen, and yes, we do sit behind him as he crawls up! :)

We had nestor stay with us for a few days while my mom was in FL visitng my grandma, and MAN! owen and nestor had wayyy too much fun together!

I think that Owen had more fun then nestor...he was always chasing him!
