chatty cathy

Every day, our in-home childcare provider sends home a daily sheet that outlines the details of Owen's day. There is a "comments" section where the teachers write a little bit about what Owen was up to. They also send us daily emails with photos. Here are a couple excerpts from recent daily sheets and emails:

"Owen is having a great day! He is so busy exploring all day long...he never stops except for eating and sleeping. :)"

"Owen had a good day! He was super talkative today and was telling all kinds of stories - and using his hand to explain!"

I obviously don't have a video from daycare, but here's one of Owen demonstrating his new gesturing skills at home! I just love when he looks at the camera, sticks out his hand, and says "Brreeeet!" so passionately! I just can't get over how cute that is! (Mind you, this is just a short clip from a 4 minute video where he talks nonstop.)

Riding a dino

Owen had sooooo much fun riding on this dino at Hazel's. I'm kicking myself I didn't take a video!!!

Double car seats

Owen and Hazel, riding in style!

happy easter!

Owen didn't let go of that Easter egg for about an hour!

Maddie tells us all about it while Owen is grumpy after a nap.

Still holding his purple egg and trying to steal Maddie's pink one!
