The past few weeks have flown by around here. I guess having a newborn around will do that to you. Since our lives revolve around little Owen and his schedule, all of the highlights from the past two weeks involve him:
Practicing his dance moves already!*We ventured further out of the house. We've taken him to restaurants, church, on many walks in the stroller, to his first baseball game (Jacob played in an alumni game), to the coffeehouse, the grocery store, to Nana and Poppy's (my parents'), and with me to get my hair cut. So far so good-we haven't had any public meltdowns! (Knock on wood) It definitely takes a lot longer to get somewhere and a lot more planning when you have to schedule around his eating schedule. Two hours flies by!
**Owen also made his first trip to school. I had to go meet with the person taking over my class this semester, so Jacob entertained him while we met. He got to meet lots of my co-workers.
*We're gradually getting used to our abbreviated sleep schedule. You never know how valuable sleep is until you miss it!
**We've continued to have visitors trickle in to meet Owen. It's wonderful that he has so many people to love him!
**Perhaps the biggest change, like I mentioned before, is the start of school. The little guy and I are on our own while Jacob is at work-this will definitely be an adventure!
Our little man-looks like he's contemplating something serious!
All cuddled up after bathtime!

Sounds like you are doing well. I can't wait to meet the little man. I will be in Indiana the week before our big 10 year class reunion. I'm hoping that I can stop by for a visit :)
He is too cute!! :)
