Our little Squishy turned FIVE last month!
We celebrated a week early since Jeff was going to be out of town on Owen's actual birthday. The morning started with opening presents in his (almost) birthday suit followed by Oreo ice cream cake and swimming with family. Owen has been asking for a Darth Vader costume ever since the day after his 4th birthday, and his wish finally came true! Careful, he just might use the Force and put you in the chokie.
On July 22nd, the actual day of his birth, the kids and I went to see the new Planes movie and had lunch. Since we'd already had cake and Ethan had Pack Meeting that evening, I wasn't planning on making anything. But Owen's amazing Primary teacher showed up with some yummy treats, so we stuck a candle in one and sang before hurrying out the door for Scouts.
We are sure grateful for this inquisitive ball of energy and the happiness he adds to our family.
We were helping Grandma in the garden one day and he asked,
"Do Butterflies make butter?"
And when he had a fever I asked him if he felt achy and he said, "Does that mean you ate to much?"
He is super excited to start Kindergarten and of course is looking forward to having lunch at school and playing on the playground.
