Goodbye 2008...Hello 2009

Well, I got a call from my brother today telling me I needed to update my blog. So, here is my update. :-)

This time last year, I was getting bigger by the minute, waiting for Owen to arrive. I can't believe it has been almost a year since he was born. He is 11 months old now. He really loves playing with toys these days, especially interactive toys. He is a funny boy. He claps and says "yay!" and dances (bops up and down) to music. He definitely gets into EVERYTHING. He even manages to get into cabinets that have cabinet locks on them...and take things out of said cabinets. Oh, here come the joys of a toddler.

He no longer eats baby food. But, he eats REALLY well now. He eats 3 meals and 2 snacks a day. Walking and attempting to run take alot of energy. :-) AND...he is FINALLY drinking out of a sippy cup and a straw cup. He would occasionally take sips before, but now he really drinks out of it. That is a relief. The only issue I have now is the nursing. He is to the point where he climbs up on me and starts to pull my shirt up. I guess it is time to start weening, huh?

I am looking for suggestions of books to read. So, leave comments with your favorites. I just finished reading the Twilight series for the second time, and a friend reccommended The Time Travelers Wife, so I am about to start that. I am not into murder mysteries, or Sci fi (aliens, etc), or scholarly books. :-) I like to keep it light hearted. Any suggestions?

Alright, picture time!!
