Saturday, in the park ....

You'd think it was the Fourth of July. Seriously....it was like 100 degrees outside today! Hello?! Isn't it supposed to be SPRINGTIME? Oh well, what am I complaining about...even though it was h-o-t, it was a gorgeous day! Chris and I took the Oboski to the park, bought him some new duds (because you can only wear so many hand-me-downs) and made him model for us :)

lucky for us, he lets us pay him in ice cream :)

little things.

make me happy. Like a little bouquet of flowers from my yard, sitting on my sunny kitchen windowsill :)

and Owen's hair after a nap :) (click picture to enlarge)

I took Owen to the park the other day to see the birds (herons, cranes ~ not entirely sure). There are hundreds of them in the trees time of year. He loved them so much (the feeling was not mutual) they really are beautiful (minus the carpet of poo covering the grass) - if you have time, it's definitely worth stopping by to check it out. I love this park, it's so pretty, lush and green! I am doing an engagement session there next month, very exciting stuff :)

You may remember a few posts back, me bragging on Owen's artistic flair. I have to giggle while I'm writing this because he just surprises me EVERYday with something - whether it's finding new and exciting ways to get into trouble, or sweet little words he picks up on (Chris taught him how to call me "hooooooneeeeey"). Anyways, the other day he created this masterpeice for me:

Pretty, huh? Yep, except THIS is where he colored it!
AND, then noteventhirtysecondslater, he comes running in to show me this:
glitter. all over the rug. all over the dining room chairs. all over him (in his hair, in his MOUTH) on his clothes.......
oh my. He certainly makes sure my life is never boring :)
