Surfs up, dude

Yes, this is all Owen's doing. The snorkel mask(for safety of course) and surfing a boogie board right here in our very own back yard!

Owen learns to say "turtle" and "happy!"

Down on the farm

Yes. There is a real farm in Queens. Owen checks in on the live stock...the sheep still say "baaa" and the goats still say "maaa"!

And...more SWIMMING! If you look closely you can see the turtles that Owen's Dad painted on the bottom of the pool!

Excited Face!

Owen shows off his Excited Face!! We love this one!

Nanna

Owen knew immediately that he had a pressy from Nanna and Granddad when Mummy opened the mail box and there was a small package inside. Owen thanks Nanna for his cars and points to her picture on the wall.

All the moves

Owen sports an old T-shirt that Mummy recently converted into a sleeveless romper.

Owen loves the water.

Pool, pool! This is pretty much the first words out of Owens mouth in the morning. He has the choice of two!! The one in our building and the one at the park. He loves jumping in and isn't afraid of going under, he likes blowing bubbles and attempts to swim. In the video he is in the park wading pool and is going backward using his hand to move like a turtle.

Upstate

Today was Owen's 18th month check up. He's doing great! 34 1/4" tall (95th) and 23 lbs (15th).
But this past weekend we went upstate to visit Sue and Corinne. Owen had a ball...literally!

Owen and Sue play ball! Cheese!

Waterfalls

Owen is having loads of fun eating yogurt with cheerios. If you can look past the food all over him ... notice the tan lines! No he's not wearing a white shirt!!!Today we went to see the Waterfalls exhibit under the Brooklyn Bridge! CHEESE!

Busy boy!

a sheep says "baaaaaaa!"Owen loves a carrousel ride and today he braved it on his very own horse!

mmmmmmmm...banana!

Katy and Owen work together at the NY hall of science.
