Late July - Early August Update

At the end of July, my grandparents came down from Rhode Island to see us and meet Owen.  It was really nice to see them here for a couple days (although their dog wasn't such a big hit with the cats or with Owen).  Oh well, we still enjoyed having Grandma Betty and Grandpa Larry here.  Here is a picture of them with the kids:

 

 

Here is a video of Owen waving his little arm off at us.  It is a little dark, but very cute:

 

 

Playing with daddy:

 

 

I think that little boys must just be born knowing exactly what to do with cars and trucks.  Owen just automatically started pushing the match box cars around the house and Olivia joined in.  There is also a video of him pushing his truck around.

 

 

 

On as side note, Owen was beginning to say a couple words.  He had said Mama several times (though he won't say it anymore) and learned to say "Uh Oh" correctly.  So anytime he pushed his walker into the wall or dropped something, you would hear "uh ooooh"  Too cute!

Here is the little guy clapping away:

 

 

Just some pictures I thought were cute:

 

Olivia got a princess bicycle for her birthday and has a lot of fun learning to ride it.  Here she is on one of her fist good attempts where she did a great job:
