Owen's First Photo Shoot

My cousin Stephanie came over and took Owen's pictures when he was 4 days old. He was so good and she got a lot of good ones. These are some of my favorites.

Kyle wanted in on the action which is surprising because I practically have to bribe him not to look away from the camera. For some reason Steph can always get him to cooperate:)


Isn't this one sweet!!!!!!



His tiny feet with Tyler's ring

It's about the creases!!

Look at those rolls!!




Hello!! Who wouldn't love this? Look at all the dimples!!!

These were both Spencer's hats

This hat was the first thing I got when I found out I was having Spencer. All 3 of the boys have worn it now...so cute!

Thanks Steph! This was fun!!!

Before Baby...

So much happened before Owen's arrival and I never quite had a chance to do a lot of posts so...here's a quick recap... Elephant ride at the Circus Science Works Museum

When Spencer was done, a little part of him wished he would have ditched Kyle and ran a few more laps;) He still had fun and they both did a great job!!

Heading Home!!



Owen made his arrival 2 weeks early! My due date is actually today, June 5th. I was induced early due to the lack of fluid being produced by the baby and lack of movement from the baby. This pregnancy was by far the hardest of the three. I was sick the whole 8 1/2 months and had horrible back and abdominal pain mostly in the 2nd and 3rd trimester. I'm so grateful everything went well during the delivery. I have a wonderful Dr. who took very good care of me. We are all loving Owen so much and his brothers are both taking to him very well(even Kyle). They are both very helpful and loving toward him(sometimes a little too much):) but I wouldn't have it any other way. Since the delivery, I've had a couple issues, but I'm taking it easy and starting to feel a little better. Tyler was able to take a few days off work to be home with us and he has been very helpful...with the 2 big boys especially. I love having Owen here with us and I'm so glad he's part of our family. He's such a good baby...so good that he's constantly sleeping and I have to wake him up to feed him all day long. All my kids have been easy newborns. Maybe that's why I love this stage so much. Later on when they're between the ages of 1 and 2 is when they make me crazy!!! So I'm taking it all in and enjoying this time with him before he turns into a monkey like the other two:).

Basketball

Ben and Spencer

Spencer loved basketball this year. He improved so much since last year. He played better, he understood the rules more, he was a lot more aggressive and he wasn't afraid to take a lot more shots...he's a pretty good little shooter too. Every time he would make a basket during a game, he'd turn and smile at me and hold up his fingers to show me how many baskets that added up to. These 2 videos are of his last game. I had just taken him to Urgent Care that morning thinking he had strep throat, but it turned out to be a sinus infection. His head and eyes were hurting him and he was so tired, but he still wanted to play. I wish I had better videos to post for everyone to see but as you know Kyle was at the games with me which made it hard for me to even get any good pictures:). This was a fun little team with some friends of Spencer's and 2 of his cousins...Jeremy and Dylan. They had fun playing on a team together.
