Today Owen and I went to the Treehouse Museum with our friends Jodi and Carson.

This is Gracie, Carson, Owen and Jodi playing in the music room.

It’s good to be King!

Future President of the United States? I hope not!  Although I’m sure he would do a better job then the guy we have now.  Owen is against the healthcare plan!

Anyone for a game of Chess?

Thanks Carson and Jodi for inviting us to play with you!

Owen had his first real haircut yesterday.  He has been trimmed a few times but this was his first real cut.  He looks so grown-up with a clean neck line.

This pictures was taken a few days before the haircut.  Check out all that hair.

He was pretty wiggly but we made it through.  I had to keep giving him treats while Daddy tried to hold him still.

I didn’t get a very good after picture.  I’ll have to take a good one with his hair combed and looking cute and post it later.

We’ve been thinking lately that Owen might be able to climb up stairs soon. Our friend we are staying with has a cat and Owen will often try to chase the cat down the stairs -- but we always catch him before he gets going down. Yesterday he found himself at the base of the stairs and decided to take on the challenge. He struggled a bit with the first step, I ended up helping him out a little, but after that first step there was no stopping him, he had it figured out!

We are still living out of our suitcases so to speak.  So we have boxes and bins of stuff everywhere.  Owen has found the boxes to be very entertaining.  He is either standing up to them and beating them, climbing on top of them, or exploring the contents inside them.  Yesterday he found Mama’s Dr. Pepper.  Daddy got jealous so he decided to test Owen.  He put a can of Pepsi and a can of Dr. Pepper in front of Owen.

And the winner is?

That’s my boy!

Our friend Jenny posted some new pictures of Owen and they look great! Check them out here.
