Spudfest '09
Owen enjoyed his first parade this Saturday. This weekend was the Big Lake Spudfest. Since Owen seems to enjoy "people watching" the parade was quite the hit...the only part he didn't like was the loud noises of the firetrucks and ambulance. Unfortunately we didn't end up going to the carnival...Owen spiked a fever (I'm thinking its related to teething...yay, here come teeth???) so we decided to just stay home. Here are a few pictures from the parade.

Checking out the band...he wasn't a fan of the drums...

10-months old!
Owen turned 10-months old on June 25th!
We had a pre-op physical for Owen today, June 26th. He now weighs 21.4 lbs and is 28.25 inches tall! The physical today was to clear him for his ear tube surgery next week...and we are good to go!

Current Events 6/26/09
I can't help but blog about the current events of the week...I think this blog might be something that we will be able to look back on one day to see what was going on in the world when Owen was little. Or who knows...maybe this thing will be WAY outdated! :)
Three American icons have passed this week and will be forever remembered by many.
Ed McMahon passed on June 23, 2009. A well-known comedian and TV personality, today's youth would be most grateful to Ed for helping stars, such as Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake, get their big break into Hollywood.
Farrah Fawcett passed the morning of June 25, 2009. She was an "American sex symbol" that was prominently known for her rold in the hit TV show "Charlie's Angels."
Michael Jackson, the 'King of Pop,' passed the afternoon of June 25, 2009. MJ was a life-long star...his journey began when he was just a child (performing with his family) and sadly ended this week at the young age of 50.
Both Ed and Farrah had highly publicized heath issues, so the news of their passing was a bit easier for people to swallow. But the sudden death of MJ...this is a huge shock to all. As I am writing this, we are still waiting for the final word on the cause of his death (heart attack, cardiac arrest, and even drug OD have been mentioned as possibilities).
As I think about how these will impact Owen's life, I wonder...Will Owen ever try to do the "moonwalk?" And if he does, will he know of its origin? I guess that is my job as a parent to teach him.
Another tidbit...the power of the Internet...as many as 20 million people per hour were trying to access information on MJ's passing yesterday...it was said that the Internet "almost died with him" because of the overwhelming requests!
Ed, Farrah and Michael...may you rest in peace.

Ma-ma
He did it!!!! Owen said "ma-ma" last night!
We heard him say "ma-ma" 2 times...VERY exciting! After that he went back to "bububu" and "dada". I can't wait to talk with him more tonight! :)
