Last weekend Owen got his first haircut--as you can see from the photos below, he did not really enjoy the event at all. There was another little girl in the salon who was sweet enough to let Owen play with her "Cinderella princess phone". It was pretty cute. Oh, the first haircut....just means he's growing up I guess.

Just Sweet...

It cracks me up that Owen puts on Daniel's hat then puts Daniel's sunglasses on top of the hat just like Daddy does...No comments about the crusty shirt, please. We ate at Aunt Effies, which means pinto beans and applesauce for Owen (that's his favorite) and I forgot to take a bib.

When I found out I was pregnant with Owen, one of my mom's friends from work gave my mom ALL kinds of things that she'd used with her child when she was little (she had things that were unisex) and one of those things was this cute little motorized red car. Well Owen is finally big enough to use it so PawPaw charged it up last week and Owen got to play with it today. He spent most of the day going around in circles but is learning the coordination of pushing the gas pedal while steering...He loves it!!!

First Haircut...

I've been putting it off for awhile now (Owen is almost two...) but I think it's about time for the first haircut. What do ya'll think? You know it's bad when your baby gets in the bathtub and says "spike it, Momma, spike it".

I know, I know...

I know that someone is going to get tired, sooner or later, of seeing these cute pics of Owen...but I don't care--this blog is for my amusement anyway I think and I can't help but post them...I love to see this baby enjoying himself! And just for those who don't know--I am very proud of Owen--his teacher reports that he "went potty" today. He has not done it for me yet, but that's a start!

Sweet, Sweet Summertime....

Okay, I don't think it's officially summer yet but it's been "hot as blue blazes" (my Granny used to say that) around here lately and we are taking full advantage. I filled up Owen's turtle pool today and allowed him to spray me with the water hose, which he thinks if very funny. Aunt Ashley also came for a visit so we took the opportunity for photos (she always likes for hers to be in black and white...). Owen loves his Aunt Ashley very much!

A Happy Mother's Day

This past weekend was a great Mother's Day weekend. First of all, thanks to my hubby for a Friday night off--Christy and I had fun at Chili's (we ate chips and salsa for a whole hour while we were waiting on our entrees) and we managed to squeeze in a trip to Target also...may not seem like much to some, but for a working mom, it was a fun night.

Sunday was a day for Nana and Granna. As you can see from the photos though, the day was really about Owen and spending time outside, which is typical and fine with all of the moms in our family....

Owen and Nana...

Owen and Aunt Ashley--serious about some Diego bubbles...

Owen and Granna--even more serious about some bubbles...

So to all moms (and all of those who are not momsbut who often act like moms, who know how to love like moms and who will make great moms)....HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
