Owen's creativity

I like to think that Owen takes after me in the imagination department. Of course, he has yet to come up with an imaginary friend, let alone one who was left in the store, rescued, and then went off to China to travel. Anyway, I digress. :) Today he built a home for his superheroes. He's done this before but I've never taken a picture. It's really quite a sight to see. If you look closely you can see that each one has their own bed.



Before he started his building project he was playing with his pirate ship. For those of you who have spent time talking to Owen you won't be surprised by this video. For the rest of you, let me just warn you that when you ask Owen a question, he rarely gives the short answer. Kevin has somehow figured out how to cut him short without making him mad, but the rest of us have yet to learn that trick. I made the mistake of asking him what he was doing and this is the answer I got. Remember, you can stop the video early. It's almost 3 minutes long and I actually stopped it before he finished what he was doing...


While I was making dinner I stuck Katie in her highchair to munch on some snacks. Owen decided to pull his chair over and play monster trucks with her. I thought it was too cute a picture to pass up. I just wish you all could have heard their conversation.
