Owen 11 weeks old, Oct 26th

Lately, this is Owen after he eats. He's such a smiley little guy. He's very smiley and coos a lot which is so neat to see. He's such a little sweetheart.

We took this photo after Owen ate while we sat at Starbux in downtown DG. Our power went out, and we decided to grab a tea. Starbux's power was out too. So we just sat around while Owen nursed, and Eva played with the toys there.

Eva learned to pee on the potty in the pitch black dark. Had to use my iphone to light up the bathroom a little.

Everything worked out great....headed off to breastfeeding support group at Hinsdale Hospital after that.

I love how Owen wakes up so happy. He's been eating a lot more at night, I think to catch up from all the meals he missed last week. The past several mornings he wakes up with a big smile on his face! I love this smiley face! :)

FIRST COLD

Owen's first cold/congestion on October 19th. He's not eating well, but he's sleeping okay. He doesn't mind the little nose's drops, but he hates having boogers sucked out...one would think we were killing him.

I'm hoping he becomes interested in nursing again soon, and hope this sickness ends.

At least we can hear him crying again. He was so congested on the 14th that everytime he "tried" to cry all I would see was his mouth opening and his face becoming mad. Who knew that this caused laringitis? sp?

Owen sleeps like this a lot. It's nice to see him content sleeping. I think all of my kids have slept like this. Delaney thinks he looks like Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer...Not so sure, but I see the "ears" in his hands....I love this little face. I think all of my children looked like this. :)

Sept 10th, 2010

Eva started preschool at Immanual Lutheran today. Owen & I were in attendance because I had to be there for a meeting. Turned out he became very fussy even though he had just eaten. I believe he might have been going through a growth spurt where he was eating every hour on the hour. Boo....

That aside, Mrs. Stumpf, the Preschool Director asked if she could take Owen. I said sure. She definitely had the magic touch because she came back into the room, and Owen was passed out! I was so excited. It was nice that he was able to calm down with someone else for a change. We have this cool picture of Mrs. Stumpf and Owen. Someday when he goes to preschool we can put up a picture how she held him at 4 weeks old. I was so happy with my preschool choice, and happy that Owen is a sweet snuggly baby!

Tomorrow is 11 weeks....

Owen on 8-11-10, just one day old.
