BIG BOY

Big O just had his 4 month doctor appointment and weighed in at 20 lb 11oz (100 percentile)! That is 5 ounces more than Ryan was a 4 months. His head is 45 cm (100 percentile) is he is 24" (15 percentile - Ryan was 26.5"). So Short, fat, with a huge head. And as CUTE and HAPPY as can be! :)

COUSIN FUN!

Zach, Amy and the boys came down for their (hopefully) annual July San Diego trip and we had a BLAST! It was fun to pretend like we were on vacation for the week :) We celebrated Dylan's 10th bday, went to a baseball game, spent lots of time at the beach and bay and ate a lot of acai bowls. The kids had a few sleep overs and got along so well (as usual) despite all the age differences. I just love it. And Owen was such a trooper being dragged everywhere we went. We miss them already and hope to see them in San Diego more often ;)



Checking out the seals

A beautiful night to end a perfect week.

4 Months

Sweet Owen is 4 months old today! He has stolen my heart and the hearts of the entire family. He is so sweet, talkative, curious, content, smiley, cuddly and happy. I feel so lucky to be his mom and grateful to be a mom a third time. I knew I always wanted 3 kids, didn't necessarily plan to have them so far apart, but i would not have it any other way. Our family is perfect and exactly as it was meant to be. I don't know if it is because I am older and more relaxed, or because its been so long so we had an infant in the house, or watching Emmy and Ryan be as excited as I am about every little thing he does, but experiencing everything the third time has been that much sweeter. I am cherishing every moment because I know they will go fast and this will be the last time. He is just the best and makes our perfect little family complete. I love my little Boo!!!

He's really starting to like the bumbo seat. He is so proud sitting up. His legs get stuck every time, just like Ryan's did.








I have still managed to carry him around in the wrap carrier which probably will not be possible for much longer :(


He looks so peaceful I had to take a picture. This was taken at 8p. Then he was up at 10p, 12p, 2:30p, 4:30p and up for the day at 6p. I am EXHAUSTED and drinking so much more coffee than I ever have before. 


This face makes it all worth it.

HOT!

Its been super hot and humid these past few days. Nothing really to complain about but not the sunny 75 degree weather we are used to! Thursday Josh took Emmy and Riley to Aquatica the water park. Emmy has been dying to go and is still talking about it. They has a blast!


Which means me and Owen had a lazy day at home :)


 

Friday Emmy and I celebrated the last mommy camp day by going to a fancy lunch at C-Level. Her choice. The girl has expensive taste.

We dressed Owen up in his fancies onesie for the occasion. 




Since I am still not eating dairy this dessert was all Emmy's!
 

What a handsome dude


Owen kept cook with some extra baths



Ryan has been spending more time with Owen. It is so sweet, I could just watch them all day long.



I've had so much one-on-one time with Emmy I took Ryan out to lunch on Saturday and even Owen stayed home!

My main dude.


Saturday afternoon we went down to the beach but it was actually kinda chilly so we left early and went to Zen 5 for sushi. Josh and i have been going there since before we had kids, pretty funny to take 3 of them in there now! 

Emmy and Ryan put down 2 cucumber roll each, edaname, seaweed salad and they spit and order of teriyaki chicken. This was after a choco taco from the ice cream truck at the beach... 



Today was a lazy day around the house. These guys played cars together :) 
I know I need to put the camera down sometimes but I just don't ever want to forget these moments.





Owen took the saucer for a spin today and LOVED IT! I feel so lucky and am so grateful that I get to experience all these firsts all over again. Each time has been uniquely special. I just love watching Emmy and Ryan get as excited as I do to watch Owen try new things. They both keep saying "Ahhh, he's so cute!". It melts my heart. I just want to freeze time NOW.


This was probably the 4th time Sadie's tongue was in his mouth today.  Sigh...
