Thanksgiving and other randoms...

So, we've had quite a month! Owen continues to grow and change every day! We went to Florida and had a great time with the Gerber's for Thanksgiving. Shawn and I also stole away 2 days to go to Sanibel Island for a little private R&R! It was most needed! Here are a few sweet shots from our time together:


With Grandma checking out the babes!
I love Siesta Key!
Swimming with Daddy!
Tickling the ivories with Grandpa G!


Since we've been back, Owen is definitely into exploring his world! Owen, as you can see in the following pictures, loves climbing and getting into whatever he can find, as the following pictures indicate. We also went through the first torture session of trying to get a family Christmas picture. It's a little tricky when the only thing to get you to look at is the little flashing light on the camera timer! Chocolate for breakfast? I turned around and this is what I see...I guess it does have "calcium"?!
Christmas angel or "Don't touch?" However, climbing up on the chair was fun!
With his new step stool, he has found all sorts of ways to entertain himself!

Shower Cowboy!
Curious George, anyone?
So sweet--he fell asleep in the car (snack in hand) during Christmas shopping...
Don't even ask...
Reading, reading, reading! A favorite of his!
When we got back from Florida, Rachel threw Shawn a surprise 31st Birthday Party at BW3's and about 10 other friends came to spread the love.
Since then, Owen got croup and we were in the ER this past Sunday. It's not a fun virus to have--but we are thankful for good treatment and health care access. He's feeling better now, amid a bit grouchy! Hope all is well!
