Musician

Owen plays a concert of the ABC's, accompanied by his good friend Flippy the Seal.

Swim Class

Owen just completed his 10 swimming lessons with "The Water Whisperer".

He actually learned a lot, and we were totally impressed. He can now hold his breath, crab walk along the inside edge of the pool, climb out of the pool, and swim around and dive under for toys with assistance. Can't wait to continue on next Summer.

Father's Footsteps

This is Owen's first t-shirt that he designed. He drew the picture, and picked out the ink color and t-shirt color himself. I think that's about 14 years before Andy started designing his first t-shirts. (oh yeah, and he's addicted to toothpaste. that's the cap in his mouth. we're working on that.)

Sleeping In

Bathtub Artist

I think Owen is into abstract expressionism these days.

July 2008 - Atlanta

We spent a week, in early July, in Atlanta visiting family.

Karen's sister, Sue, was nice enough to host all of the Pitt's, 

and more, at her farm house in the country for the 4th of July. 

Many great memories were made that day.

Thanks Sue! 

The kids were all brave enough to run through the corn fields. 

Especially with this corn creature around.

The kids painted a horse. In cruelty-free paints of course.

The hay-ride gang.

Two of a kind.

Owen was completely obsessed with the tractor. 

We could not get him off of it. 

Bye, Bye Passy!

This week held a major milestone for Owen.

He had a visit from the pacifier fairy.

The pacifier fairy takes away your "passys" and gives them to the little babies who really need them. In exchange, the fairy leaves a gift. 

Owen got a junior Bosch drill which he is totally obsessed with. He's been fixing a lot around the house.

So Owen deserves a big congratulations on this step. Big deal! He has been super addicted to it in the past. He's going on his fifth night without it tonight.

August 2008 - Hawaii

This past August we went to Hawaii for vacation.

Needless to say we had a great time and can't wait to go back.

We spent the first half of our vacation on the North Shore of Kauai - where we rented a house with our friends Christa, Eric and their daughter Wesley.

The second half of our vacation was spent on the North Shore of Oahu. We saw sea turtles, swam at the base of a waterfall (or as some say a "water drip" this time of year), and ate some good food in the town of Haleiwa.

This blog thing is new to us, so we hope to post some new pictures soon.

Owen loves to help out.
