Owen 4 1/2

-He is still WAY into karate. Anything with karate. Anime, Ninjago, Power Rangers, anything.

-Loves baseball and is actually quite good at it. He's got a pretty good arm and when he's paying attention he hits the ball almost every time.

-His speech has really improved! It's not quite up to his peers but we understand the majority of what he says now. It's amazing! And he learns new words all the time!

-He just performed in his first primary program!  He was so good and well behaved, sang every song and wasn't shy about saying his part. We were so proud!

-Still loves horses. He is so interested in them and will watch youtube videos of them forever.

-Likes to play with army men and swords.

-Is SUCH a good big brother. He sings to the baby when he cries and watches very carefully how we handle him and tries to do the same. He loves to see the baby in the mornings and is always keeping an eye out for him. He notices the minute we put him to sleep in the order room.

-Hates to run errands with me now. He always wants to "stay here, stay in car." It makes the experience a little more trying.

-Has given up naps completely. He will take one only about once every 2 weeks or so.

-Has taken to scolding us and often. Ha! Its a little frustrating but we're trying to teach him to use "nice words," and that we are his parents so we scold him when he acts naughty.

-Loves to play with his best friend Clark. He asks for him almost every day.

He is so much fun! Still a super giggly boy and we just love him!
