Owen's Crawling! He started Monday afternoon (12/4) and is taking a few crawls at a time. He is by no means cruising around the room, but if he sees something he wants, he can get it. Sometimes that is helpful, other times it is not! But we're excited and thankful for this progress!
One of Owen's favorite activities is playing ball. We literally play catch with him. We throw it to him, he picks it up, and throws it back to us. It's very fun. Here Owen is playing catch with his pal Puppy. He looked at puppy with delight the whole game.
Owen is enjoying some new foods in his diet - cheese, yogurt, CheeriO's, water out of a sippy cup, etc. His favorite by far were Lima Beans that our friends Jake and Melissa brought over for dinner. He could not get enough of them!
Here is Owen's new facial expression. (Sorry the picture is on it's side) He makes it along side many different moods. He will make it when he's happy, frustrated, sad, angry, etc. At least he tells us what he thinks! He's our little communicator!
With every new phase of parenting there is a portion of joy and a portion of trial. It is great that he's crawling, but it brings a host of new issues. You get the idea. We're praying that the Lord would give us love for Owen in all that he is doing; that He would allow us to know when to discipline and when to train and when to let a baby boy be a baby boy. Thankfully He offers to give wisdom to those who need it. That is us for sure!
