Never leave a toddler alone.....

The best news first.....Praise the Lord!!!.....Owen pooped last night. Thanks to all you who prayed for him and keep praying that he keeps it up so I can cancel his tests that are scheduled for February. Anyhow, he did it as we were walking out the door to go to the cracker barrel, for the 2nd friday night in a row. Joe and I are hooked on their friday night fish fry. When we left it was raining a little bit but by the time we left to come home it was a full blown ice storm. We thankfully made it home safe. Today Owen had another shot at bananas and I added a bit more breast milk before pureeing it and it went alot better. As you can see in the pictures the meal ended with him much happier. His biggest problem now is keeping his fingers out of his mouth while eating. After each bite he seems to need a suck.
































After Maggie got up from her nap today she was playing with her babies while I was cooking. She was running from her room to the kitchen and had her baby in Owen's high chair and was talking a mile a minute. I wasn't paying much attention to what she was doing which turned out to be a mistake! I happen to look over at her baby in the swing and here is what she looked like......




















She had been covering her baby with aquaphor, I suppose she's seen me putting it on Owen's face before we go out to keep him from getting wind burn. In the mix of things she also covered quite a bit of herself in it so Joe gave her a bubble bath in the basement bathroom and she had a blast. She was being princess Maggie with a bubble crown.



























Tommorow we are having a going away party thrown for us by our small group at church so that ought to be fun. There are several little girls maggie's age there that she loves to play with. No other big plans this week other than Joe leaves for Germany on friday evening. I cannot believe we won't see him for nearly 3 weeks. The kids are going to miss him tons, and so will I. ;) We bought some video cams for our computers so we're going to try those out while he's there. The kids and I will be heading to mom and dad's on friday also for a nice long visit. We also will be going to Virginia to my cousin Olevia's wedding so that will be lots of fun. Dinner is about ready to I will post more later.
