Owen Update

Last week Grandma Johnson, aka Grandma in the blue house, came to visit.  She is the baby whisperer--he slept for 3 hours right next to her on the couch and seemed to drift off to a happily dreamy state every time she held him.  She gave me a break all day and I was able to get a massage and pedicure.  It was a greatly appreciated and needed change of pace.  Thanks Mom!

In the past week Owen has become much more alert and likes to stare at faces and his toys.  He has also started lifting his head much better during tummy time. He isn't a big fan of the camera flash as you can see in some of the pictures above.

Last weekend Owen took his first big trip to Spencer.  He did a great job!  He slept most of the way there and even stayed quiet through a whole wedding.  It was nice to get to introduce him to more of the family and to get to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa Beck.  Grandma Beck also has quite a way with Owen and even managed a middle of the night feeding--again, greatly appreciated!
