22 weeks

so owen had quite the big day yesterday...three things to share.

first...yesterday morning, as owen was laying in his little sleeper talking to himself, he said the word "momma" for the very first time. it was so clear and perfect...made adam and i both smile. can't tell you how much i loved hearing it come from his sweet little lips. i know that he doesn't actually associate the word momma with me yet, but it was still sooooOOOO sweet to hear.

second...yesterday afternoon, owen went swimming for the very first time. adam took him in the big pool at grandma bonnies and he LOVED it. so much fun for him. and so much fun for us to watch. he was kicking his little legs and playing in the water. he was fascinated. will be doing this many more times, i'm sure. may even get a little pool for our backyard.
heres a pic of him in his bathing suit. (and thanks to aunt kathy and uncle mike for the shirt. so cute.)

and heres a couple of owen in the pool. (thanks to grandma bonnie and grandpa doug for the crab floaty. he loved it.)


and third...last night owen had oatmeal cereal for the very first time. since he was doing so good with the rice cereal, we thought we'd give the oatmeal a try. and he gobbled it right up. we're not really sure if he liked it better or if hes just getting the hang of the whole spoon thing. we're moving right along...gonna get to those tiny baby jars soon.

happy monday. and happy 22 weeks to owen.
