All wrapped up - Owen is exploring more things each day!
Owen's sitting up! He can sit for a long time, but we still keep pillows behind him because every now and then he'll kick his legs out and fly back! That doesn't usually go over too well :)
So, can you believe that Owen is 6 1/2 months old?! We can't! He is sitting up a lot and rolling over very quickly. Still no crawling, but we're getting there I think. Oh, and Owen had his first Carrots 2 days ago - he isn't quite sure what he thinks about them. But it's been fun for us to watch!
On another note, Owen and I were visiting the school I worked at last year and one of the women we were talking to said, "Owen Purdy, you are a blessing." Matt and I were talking about that later. He has surely been a blessing from the Lord in our lives, but we are amazed that the Lord has made him to be a blessing in the lives of many others. Surely to our family and friends, but also to strangers. Yesterday at Chic - Fil - A we had the attention of about 5 older folks eating next to us. What a smile he brought to their faces! I am not trying to boast in Owen, but rather to boast in the Lord and in the blessing that HE has given us, and those we come in contact with, in this sweet boy!

Hi Kristen!
That little Owen certainly is adorable! I find that I make so many more "friends" in public places now that I bring Micah with me all the time. Babies seem to bring out the best in people, don't they? Looking forward to seeing you some time between now and March!
