Owen's Birth Announcement

Owen Three Weeks


Owen is three weeks!
As of his last weight check, he weighed 7lbs 7.5oz. They didn't check his length, but I can really tell he is getting taller too.
He still sleeps most of the time, but has started to wake up a little more during the day. Other than when he is hungry or tired, he doesn't cry much and tolerates his brothers really well. They are constantly wanting to hold, kiss, hug, & be right in his face. He doesn't seem to mind for the most part.
He loves sitting in his Boppy when he is awake & sleeps most naps in the living room in his Moses basket. He likes to be swaddled at night and sleeps best on his left side.
We are all really enjoying getting to know our sweet little boy!

Almost There!


Luke has struggled ALL summer long with the letter "K". We worked and worked and worked on it, but still couldn't get it. At the beginning of the school year I told his teacher that it was a struggle for him & she assured me that it was going to be fine and she would help him get it down.
Brady got this cool AquaDoodle for his birthday and both him and Luke have really enjoyed playing with it. The other day Luke ran in and said "Look Mommy! I can write my number "K"!
I was so proud- he is ALMOST THERE!

Love it!

Sip & See


Yesterday my sweet friends Amy & Kristen hosted a Sip & See for Owen. They really outdid themselves- everything was absolutely perfect and could not have been any better!


Me & Owen with Amy & Kristen. Thanks so much girls!


The food table was beautiful! The table runners are made from the same fabric in Owen's bedding- notice the monogram...details, details, details! Not to mention the food was AMAZING!




The guest tables were also decorated beautifully!




More details- LOVE IT!

Owen's room has this same argyle and vintage toys. There are four airplanes hanging above his bed. I love how they included that on the cake. The cake tasted heavenly!


The girls even had personalized water bottles.




Grandma Kay was one of the guests who came. She hadn't met Owen yet, so I am so glad she was able to make it.


Owen got some really cute gifts too!


Mommy & Owen.
Thanks again for all of your hard work Amy & Kristen! You guys made us feel so loved and special. Also, thank you for my sweet friends and family who came to celebrate with us. What a special day for both of us.

School Spirit Day

Luke & Brady's school has monthly Spirit Days in which everyone wears their school shirt & they get to eat Chick Fil A for lunch. Today was the first one for this school year. Both boys were really excited about it!



Meanwhile, at home, Owen enjoyed a visit with Uncle Nonah who was in town on business.

A Busy Weekend!

This weekend Mamaw & Papaw came in town to meet Owen for the first time! We were all so excited to get to visit with them. Brady & Luke didn't want to leave them Sunday night when it was time to go home.



On Sunday we watched the Texans game with Mamaw, Papaw, Yaya, Papi, Aunt Kay Kay, & Biboo. Yay Texans- they beat the Colts!!!
Look how handsome all four of my boys look in their Texan gear!

Biboo held Owen most of the time! It was so sweet to hear the things she would say to him when she thought nobody was listening. He slept so peaceful in her arms.


We can't be over at Yaya & Papi's all weekend long without swimming and playing in the sandbox. Brady made a choo choo train out of sand!


Owen even got to meet Uncle Nonah for the first time this weekend. He is here for the week on business, so EE & Cash were not with him. We can't wait for them to be here in two weeks so Owen and Cash can finally meet. They are only six weeks apart in age & look forward to playing together really soon.
