Owen at 10 Months

Owen at 10 Months

This month Owen took two trips to Massachusetts while Dad was traveling for work. There he got to play with Jessica and Dan, Great Aunt Maureen, cousins Cavan and Aevlyn, Great Aunt and Uncle Joanne and Steve, Great Uncle Jackie, Chris and Lisa, Great Aunt Mary, Becky, Ricky, and Ellie, and Lisa. We also stopped at cousin Scott, Dena, Hayley, and Camille and happened to see Julie and Nate while there. Needless to say, Owen loved meeting everyone. He also stopped at the Institute for Contemporary Art with his New York buddies Erin and Edie. The ICA had things that even Mommy (who has one of the most open definitions of art) questioned the merit of.

Owen learned how to party at his first friend birthday party for his friend Ruby. There he met the mother of Wadi Jones from this season's So You Think You Can Dance.

In between all this, Owen celebrated Father's Day by going to the Birdsall House for brunch w and Tonino for dinner.

Stats:
Teeth: 8
Saying: For a while it seemed like he was saying "dog" but that stopped so I guess that wasn't his first word. Daddy swears he said "red dog" in response to Clifford. It also seems like he's said Mama and Dada at times but it still doesn't seem consistent. He is interested in imitating sounds though. He also likes to shake his head.
Eating: Much the same as last month except with the addition of hamburger, chicken, and hummus. Owen loves the hummus especially.
Playing: Toys just get more fun. He wants to play with whatever 2-4 year olds are playing with. He also loves to pull himself up on everything and to climb stairs.
