There were some showings and an open house here today, so among other things we went to Hoffer’s Tropic Life Pets in Milwaukee to keep busy. The fish section was gigantic, including three or four ponds so low to the ground kids could just lean over and see the fish down inside. One was filled […]

The weather was great again today, so we took a walk to Main Street, which is about a half mile from home. Like yesterday, Owen stepped in every mud puddle and snow bank he could find. Unlike yesterday he carried a rock around all day. Yesterday it was a stick.

Today the weather was in the low 50s, so we went to the Milwaukee County Zoo. Before we left Owen was practicing making and throwing snowballs with the little mounds of snow in the backyard. He was clean right up until the minute he was getting in the truck…on the way in, he slipped on […]

Owen had his belated 3-year doctor’s appointment today. He’s actually 3 years and 3.5 months.
41 inches tall and 40 pounds, which puts him in the 90th percentile for height and the 130th percentile for weight
Looking at him he doesn’t look overweight, and the doctor said not to worry. The one thing he said this […]

Late this afternoon Owen went down for a nap and stayed sleeping the whole night through. He does this occasionally, usually during growth spurts, so it wasn’t a big deal.
At about 1 AM he woke up crying, asking for milk. I went up, changed him, tucked him back in bed, and gave him his milk. […]

This evening Owen asked if he could have some popcorn. I told him if he wanted some to go get a microwave bag of it and bring it to me, which he did, enthusiastically. He’s getting very good at taking directions and is very proud when he can do things on his own.
We put it […]

This is something Owen’s been talking about since about the time he learned to talk - his “penny.” Lately he’s been talking about it more, and it’s too funny to not mention. By ‘penny’, Owen means his penis. I tried to teach him the correct term for it (and still occasionally remind him when he’s […]

Owen’s been in quite a mood today. I don’t know exactly what it is, but he’s as sassy as heck; not in a bad way, though. Example:
Me: “Owen, please throw that in the garbage.”
Owen (shouting): “No, you pleeease trow dat in the garbage!”
Owen smiles.
We’d repeat this a couple times until I told him […]

We finally finally took down the Christmas decorations today. Against my better judgment, I let Owen “help.” It was actually really fun; every single thing that came down and got packed away we had to talk about. We had extended conversations about anything that resembled a Santa, a Star Wars figure, or a snowman. We […]

We had to get out of the house in the afternoon because of another showing. We went shopping for a little while, then as we were driving home Owen started hollering that he wanted to get a movie at Hollywood Video, which is odd because we haven’t gone there in about six months. Sometimes it […]
