Nicer Weather!

I love the nicer weather! I finally felt that I could take Owen on outdoor walks b/c the weather got a little warmer (but on this day, I still had to bundle him) and the ground was dry. It is so nice to get out of the house and get some fresh air. Owen loves being outside - just like his big brother, Gavin - and we have been walking outside everyday since Tuesday. Hopefully the sun stays shining even if the temperatures dip a little.

Owen was excited to get out of the house as well. There are not many instances where Owen is smiling in his car seat so I had to take advantage of this opportunity. This hat was actually Gavin's, but it is still big on Owen since he has such a tiny head. The doctor says she is not worried, but you know me, I worry about everything. I hope that his head catches up with his body soon!!

Foot Fetish

On Monday, March 7 (I know - I'm a little behind - Mother of the Year AGAIN!), Owen found his feet. Since then, they have become his favorite toys and he seems quite obsessed with them.

Owen did not make it easy to get this picture, which is one reason why it took so long for me to get this on!

Finally - a decent picture!

My Football Player

Gavin is getting spring fever. Thank goodness for the warm weather b/c we have been able to get him outside to get all that pent up energy out! When we can't go outside, Gavin plays football in the house. Here is his famous pose:

Sesame Street Live!

About 3 weeks ago, Greg won 4 tickets to see "Elmo's Green Thumb" at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Wilkes-Barre. This is not a show that we would normally go to see, but when you get free tickets, you take advantage of the opportunity - and I'm so glad we did. Gavin loved it and though Owen is too little to understand he was fond of the colors, singing, and dancing - at least until after intermission.

Posing with my 2 favorite boys before the show. Grammy gave Gavin some money to buy something at the show. He picked this Elmo pendant and a shirt.

Before intermission - the guys enjoying the show.

Owen after intermission. Guess he can only handle so much.

Update on Gavin

On Friday, March 4th, we returned to Gavin's cardiologist for another echo to see how his aneurysms are doing. We were greeted with only good news!! Though Gavin's aneurysms have remained the same size; there are no signs of blockages and no problems with heart function. This is such great news and the doctor gave the OK for Gavin to start Tee-ball this year. He is so excited! I simply want both of my kids to be happy and healthy and hope that every 6 months when we return to Dr. Connuck we get the same news. Next up is another MRI this summer. Keep praying for continued health.
