Owen at 6 months

Image
By


 

This is my little Owen and he is the most handsome little boy ever. He brings so much joy to our lives. He is an excellent napper, happy 98% of the time, and a great little brother. He laughs at every thing Brooklyn does and is so patient as she pulls and pokes him while they try and play. Here is a glimpse of Owen James at 6 months old:
  • He sits up and loves to play with anything put in front of him
  • He drools like nothing I've ever seen before
  • Can roll from front to back and back to front but mostly rolls from back to tummy
  • Loves tummy time
  • Is obsessed with Brooklyn and Peek a boo
  • Isn't the best night time sleeper but he is getting better every day. He gave me 6 hrs last night...to bad it was from 6 pm to 12 am instead of 12 am to 6 am. Once he's in a deep sleep he does great but just has a hard time getting to sleep at first
  • Smiles at everyone so he can show off his dimples
  • Blabs mama everyday all day but I don't think he has connected it yet
  • Loves his mama
  • Has 2 teeth and they came less than a week apart. Poor kid as been a teething machine the past couple of weeks and it has been rough.
  • Will put anything and everything in his mouth
  • Loves solid foods. I was procrastinating starting so when his aunt Martha came to visit she helped us get started. Loves applesauce, pears, banans and sweet potatoes. Hates potatoes and avocado. Not much else yet but we are working on it! 
  • Everyone says he is my twin and that he should be a baby model. I mean, just look at him! He is just so handsome I swear I could stare at his face all day long.
  • Weighs 17 lbs 5.5 0z and is 28.5 inches long. He is one tall boy (99%).
Happy 6 months Owen. We are so grateful you are a part of our family. You bring us joy, make us laugh, and fill our hearts with more love than we knew we could hold. Time is going by so quickly. We just can't believe you are 1/2 year old already.  You keep us busy and I am sure as time goes on you'll keep us even busier.

Sorry I haven't blogged in a long time. I really haven't found the time but I couldn't resist sharing these pictures with our loved ones. Hope all of you are doing well and that you enjoy the upcoming holiday season.

    I don't think I've ever noticed his red hair before. Taking after the Ellsworths. Love it.

Wise Men Still Seek Him Free Printable

By
UPDATE:  Hello Everyone! I have noticed that this post has been receiving a lot of traffic via pinterest and The Dating Divas Website. I wanted to welcome you all. I still do free printables for different seasons and holidays but no longer post them on my personal blog. We'd love it if you'd follow along on our design journey. You can find us on Facebook ! I also post all of my free printables here . Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy your holiday season. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ So the past couple of days I have really been thinking about how I can reflect the true meaning of Christmas in my home. We live in a small two bedroom apartment and there isn't much room to decorate. This morning I was watching the video Wise Men Still Seek Him   and felt inspired to create a printable for my home. It's a good reminder to not only seek Him this time of year but thr...

Big News!

By
So this is big news for the Power family. I know many of you know a million other people who are currently pregnant but before you roll your eyes and skip over this post completely (ha), read on and hear a little bit about our story. I am currently 20 weeks pregnant. We just found out yesterday that we are expecting a baby girl. She is due to enter this world on January 3, 2012. So far she is healthy and growing strong. She is growing about a week ahead of schedule. Maybe she'll come early...like before the end of the year. Derek and I will celebrate our 3rd anniversary on the 16th of January...so not too long after our sweet girl is born. A little about us: Derek: One of the things I love most about Derek is how patiently he accepts trials in his life. He always has such a good atitude about what life has handed him. When he was 11 or 12 he was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Then at age 19 he was diagnosed with Lymphoma Cancer.  He has now been in remission for 5 ...

32 Weeks

By
32 weeks, 2 days here How Far Along: 32 weeks, 4 days Size of the Baby:  Almost 4 pounds and about 17 inches long Weight gain/loss: 3.6 pounds in the last month bringing me to 12.6 pounds total Sleep:  It's gotten worse. Oh well. At least the trains are the least of my worries now. Any sleep advice for the 3rd trimester? I'll take any I can get. I wake up with the worst back and abdomen pain and I have to rotate multiple times throughout the night since my hips, legs, arms, and hands all start going numb. ha I am ready to buy a recliner and sleep sitting up. It might work out better. Best Moment of the Week: My birthday and my baby shower. (More to come on these later) How could you not have an awesome week with those two things in the mix? Movement: Lots of rolling and jabbing. I feel like the past couple days she has been moving more constantly. I am loving it. Only two other people have felt her move besides her parents - Samantha and Jami...
