Our Boy is ONE!








Here he is, all grown up at age ONE!

We love you, Oodles!
You are so full of life, inquisitive, persistent, and good-natured.
You are such a happy little guy who has a wonderful sense of humour.
Happy Birthday!

Baby Toting

This clip from a 1963 episode of "Telescope" on CBC is so great.

I have used a Moby wrap, a ring sling, and a Baby Hawk for toting Owen around over the past 11 months. I love wearing him. I love looking into his eyes and feeling his warm chubby body next to mine. I love experiencing the world through his eyes. I've really got a front-row seat for it! Adam has worn him on occasion as well. The stroller is great for long treks in open spaces, but for short jaunts or in closed quarters (like a busy mall, a hike, a trip through the library), wearing Owen is the easiest way.
