730 days! So many wonderful memories fill all those days with our wonderful son. In just the last year, Owen has mastered walking and is now running and jumping, he can throw and even catch a ball, he can eat everything and anything we eat. He has eaten ice cream, beets, venison, homegrown tomatoes and zucchini, and he will try anything at least once. He has been camping, hiking, swimming, fishing and sledding; he traveled on an airplane to Oregon and Texas. He dyed his first Easter eggs, peed and pooped in the toilet for the first time, got a pet fish of his very own, and even kissed a girl, Alexandra, at his party. He has learned how to say hundreds of words and now uses sentences that he forms on his own; our favorite of course is "I love you mommy and daddy."
Everything he does amazes us, from the smallest kindnesses to the big milestone steps. It has been a busy and exciting year, what could possibly be in store for year three? I think we are really going to see his personally shine because this kid thinks he is a comedian, a model, a skilled swimmer, a singer, a contractor, an athlete, and a dancer. He is all that and more... he is our little man. We are bursting with pride and love for this little creature who came screeching like a pterodactyl into our lives just 730 days ago.
