GB Packers vs. Stockbridge Area Players

The Green Bay Packers will be taking on Stockbridge Area Players in Basketball (yes, Basketball) on March 28th at Stockbridge. Eric will be one of the lucky players : ) Owen and I will be there to cheer him on and hopefully snap some pics. Go team!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD : )

New Happenings at the Olsons...

Well whats new at the Olson's. We got a new vacuum cleaner.. A Dyson and I absolutely love it. The cat/dog hair doesn't stand a chance against this beast. We also purchased a new/better camera thanks to Aunt Kelly's advice. We absolutly love that as well. Were just stimulating the economy like crazy this past weekend...

Owen had his 6 month pictures (can you belive he is 6 months already, we sure cant!) and they turned out so cute. I cant wait to get them printed. He looks like such a litte man.

Other than that. Eric has been student teaching at Stockbridge which will wrap up in the next week or two and then he is off to Menash HS.. YIKES! He is really enjoying his teaching and working with the kids. I think they are enjoying it just as much. Who wouldnt, he brought our Wii in one day for the kids to play... how fun is that!

Well, we will try and be better at keeping up with our blog (grams) : )

Updates...

Well, quite a bit has happened in the last few weeks/days. Owen started sleeping in his crib. It was really hard for me the first couple of nights. We received a camera baby monitor from my boss and its so AMAZING!! I don't know if I could live without it now that I have one. Its worth every penny. He had no problems adjusting at all, it was me that was having the trouble : )

He had his 4 month well baby check up a few weeks ago and he weighed 13# 8 oz. A little peanut! He is in the top 50% for his height. He will be 5 months on the 17th of February and then were going to tackle baby cereal. That should make for some cute pictures!

My dad made us a new bed and it arrived today! We had a queen but this one is a KING! Its so amazing. We absolutely love it. I cant wait to sleep in it tonight. We got a free box spring and mattress so we couldn't go wrong.

Here are some pictures of Owen I took today from my camera phone.

He has been trying to tackle sitting up on his own but hasn't quite mastered it yet. He has been pushing himself in mom's walker and really enjoys it. He also rolls over from back to front and front to back. Sometimes he actually scares himself when he does it. Its so cute. He is defiantly getting his own personality and is beginning to interact with us much more which makes for some fun times.

I bought some letters to spell Owen at Hobby Lobby to put above his crib but I painted them and didn't like how they turned out so mom came over today to help with the bed and decided to paint them for me. They turned out really cute. I will post pics of them when they are hung up as well. Thanks mom : )

Happy New Year!!!

Happy New Year to everyone... Its hard to believe that its already 2009 (well almost). Time sure does fly. I have no plans for tonight. Eric had to work so I am going to spend some time with Owen and just relax.

Tomorrow my friend Kelly is going to come over to visit (a visit way too over due!). Later on in the evening were going to get together with the Olson's for Steak and Lobster. Its somewhat of a family tradition (a pretty nice one if you ask me : ) I know I am sure looking forward to it.

Owens 3 Month photo shoot

Owen will be three months on Wednesday. I cant believe it. Aunt Kelly came over to take his 3 month photos and some Christmas pictures for our Christmas card. They turned out really cute. He rolled over for Eric and I today. He rolled over a month or so ago already (for mom and the Olson's) but we had not seen it. It was really cute and very exciting for us to see.

Owen in his reindeer outfit (Babies 1st Christmas) and his Christmas Outfit. He didn't stay happy for too long so the photo shoot was pretty short.
