Almost a year!

I cannot believe my 'baby Owen' will be a year next month! It's odd... it seems like he has been with us more than a year, yet time with him has gone sooo fast.

He is such a wonderful child, always has been. He is just very content, very thoughtful, and curious about his surroundings. I'll always have my general complaints, you know...not sleeping through the night, resistant to stop nursing, his constant neediness. Beyond those SMALL complaints, he is wonderful and I know without a doubt that he was designed for me and my needs as a mother. As he gets older it is so fun to see him laugh, and love life. Take yesterday for instance...I was on my deathbed and throwing up everything I was eating or drinking. Well, Owen crawls into the bathroom and pulls himself up to the toilet as I am puking my brains out. I was so nervous that he would be scared, but instead he just laughs and laughs as if my throwing up was an attempt to entertain him. In that moment, I realized what a wonderful companion I have. Someone who can cheer me up even when I am at my worst. I love him, and cannot imagine a world without Owen in it.
