Other Milestones:

Owen crawls under and over everything, squats like it is no ones business, goes up and down the step, climbs onto and into everything, he can pull himself up and walk around holding onto something, he has taken steps but doesn't have enough confidence that he can do it on his own, he can stand without holding onto anything until he decides he had enough, he is trying to figure out how to stand up from sitting without anything around him, he babbles and yells (making noise), clucks his tongue, says "dada" just not "mama" yet, spits/blows bubbles, puts everything into his mouth, he loves to laugh and make you laugh by playing peek-a-boo with blankets or my scarf, splashing water and playing in the sand and grass, he loves to give hugs and kisses, and loves any blankets and stuffed animals.

Owen continues to bring so much joy and laughter into our lives. He is such a good baby and melts my heart. But more than that it melts my heart to see the capacity of love and tolerance both Brynn and Owen have for each other. Brynn is the one person that he can't wait to see and play with everyday. They both know how to make each other laugh and cry, but they don't seem to care. When Brynn isn't in the carseat next to him, he loses it because since day 1 she has always been in the carseat next to him.
