Baby Owen is two months old now!

Grandma and Grandpa Grimes are so wonderful to me! They drove all the way from Columbus for a two night/three day stay with us. Owen received not only the wonderful gift of time spent with them, but some wonderful toys, clothes, and a very special teddy bear made from one of his Dada's old Butler Athletic Training shirts. We'll have to include it in next month's milestone photo. Wish you could have stayed longer...can't wait to see everyone at Christmas.
We've begun to take weekend strolls by the lakes in Inverness. The Rails to Trails provides Mommy and Dada with some exercise and Owen with wonderful sights, sounds and sometimes restful naps too.

Move over Baby Baloo, my fat rolls need more room now.


This weekend Car-Car hosted a baby shower for Owen and I while Poppy and Burls attended the Kentucky vs. Gator game. (Kentucky got blasted by the way...hee hee).

Today, Oct. 27th, Owen had his two month check-up. Here's his latest stats:
Weight = 13 lbs 14 oz (90% percentile) and Length = 23 3/4 inches (75% percentile). Owen was such a champ upon receiving his shots too. He decided to take a 3 hour nap instead of crying for his ouchies. We love him so much!!!

Football Woes and Owen's Bros

Our six week old bouncing baby boy! He loves his Winnie the Pooh bouncy chair and smiles in it quite often now. Check out those cheeks...not to mention those chubby arms and legs.
Grandma and Grandpa Grimes sent Owen an awesome Cubs onesie. Too bad the Cubs didn't show up to play in the playoffs! (The whole Grimes family was sick over that one). We will still wear it with pride. After all they are the Cubbies.

Here's some of Owen's pals, Theo on the left, Owen and Austin. These sweet baby boys are about two months older than me ...and awake.


Here's Owen giving Dada some words of advice about the game of football.



Burls has not had it too easy lately on Friday nights. The Lecanto Panthers have been riddled with injuries from their opponents so Coach Grimes has visited the ER on several occasions. He is such a trooper! Owen and I miss him when he's gone, but we know he offers his team excellent care and support. On a happier note, Owen has been out socializing and making friends at our Mommy and Me playtime get togethers.
