Evidently not Owen! In fact, we’re hoping that removing them will make Owen a brand new kid. Let me back up and explain, in case you have NO CLUE what I’m talking about.
For the last 4 months, Owen has had recurring sinus infections. (He’s had 4 since May.) He’s also had [...]

Last Tuesday afternoon, my neighbor knocked on the door to show me that this was happening in my front yard:
In case you can’t tell what’s happening, water was spurting out of the ground. It looked like someone had put a hose under the grass and it was shooting up into the yard. Because [...]
emily, on your 28th birthday, I have a big idea:

Yep, today’s Emily’s big day (well, I’m technically writing this at 11 pm on Wednesday, so it’s officially tomorrow, but you get the point).
If you get a second, send the birthday girl a message. And if you’re wondering, yes, I am taking her out for dinner. Whether or not the wait staff is gonna sing [...]
goodbye red cast…
Posted in owen on September 23, 2008 | 4 Comments »
…hello blue cast!
This cast is much smaller, much lighter, and will be much easier to walk with. I say “will be” because he’s having a little trouble getting going…but that’s to be expected. He hasn’t bent his knee or used those muscles in three weeks. Yes, it’s been an eventful day…but I’ll [...]
owen’s table…from start to finish
Posted in crafty things, emily on September 21, 2008 | 12 Comments »
A couple of months ago I began a search to find the perfect child-size table for Owen. I wanted a place for him to color without getting crayon all over the kitchen table and a place for him to eat his snack and get used to not being in his high chair. I found the [...]
our little tiny tim

The long awaited video is finally here! I know many of you have been anxious to see Owen walking with his cast (okay, so I flatter myself…I realize that really only 2 of you have asked!). As you can tell from the video he gets a kick out of himself! (Oh yeah, you [...]

Today is Owen’s 16 month birthday! The kid is as active as ever, despite the cast. Here are some things he’s into lately:
1. He LOVES to talk. It seems that he learns a new word everyday. Some of his new words include Elmo (Melmo), bus, walk, baby (beebee), Max (Mox), Ella (Lala [...]
it’s that time of year again.

Mizzou is 3-0, and the time has come for me to start hijacking your regularly scheduled Owen programming with some Tiger football glee.
Now, I’m not one of those guys who’s already boasting that Mizzou will win the national championship. After all, we have to play at Nebraska and Texas, against KU, and potentially in a [...]

Hey all. Sorry it’s been such a long time since I’ve made any contributions here. I’ve had a couple blog-worthy things going on lately , but haven’t had the time to share (luckily for us all, Emily’s done a great job of keeping everyone in the loop on Tiny Tim). So I’m gonna pack a [...]
watching elmo…for the 37th time
Posted in emily, owen on September 11, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Or “Melmo”, as Owen calls him. I don’t know what it is about that furry red monster, but Owen LOVES him and can’t get enough. We own one Elmo DVD, and I can’t even count how many times Owen has watched it in the last 2 weeks. I’m not forcing it on him. On the [...]
