You have transformed over the last few weeks from a newborn into a chunk of a laughing, smiling, cooing, on the brink of independent mobility BABY. You can sit up all by yourself now, which you think might just be the greatest thing ever. You can roll over both ways, although you don't really like too. You grab onto our faces and pull them in close for big, slobbery open mouth kisses. And you eat real food. Lord do you eat. Last night you pounded three bowls of spinach. You also eat mango, sweet potato, pumpkin, bananas, figs, avocado, peas, carrots, apples, pears, blueberries, oatmeal, and more.
This past week you started school and you seem to love it. Except for the ear infection (which I promise, come hell or high water, we will do everything in our power to ensure you never have again - you screamed for three straight days and almost did us all in). Your arms and legs still haven't stopped moving, which has lead your Daddy to start calling you Jitterbug. It's pretty fitting, and even your teachers at school are starting to use the nickname:)
You sleep in your room now with Levi and light up like a little lightening bug every time you see him. He feels the same way - just last week he said, "Mama, I love you and Daddy, but I love baby Owen more." So, you know, good to know where we stand. Your favorite song is "You Are My Sunshine", and even when I sing it all out of tune it can put you right to sleep.
You are getting so big so fast, and I love you so much!
