Owen and I have been spending a lot of time together lately. Mostly we've been doing a lot of letterboxing. It's really really fun and I highly recommend it. Anyway, we came down to my parents today and are spending the night while they're at a wedding in Connecticut. So today, while Katie was supposed to be napping, Owen and I went off to Willow Brook to find a letterbox. Unfortunately, the box wasn't there, but we still had lots of fun. It's amazing how much he talks. I probably shouldn't be surprised anymore by it, but it can be so exhausting! He has questions about everything he sees and I'm amazed at the questions he comes up with. He found a leaf and I didn't know what it was, so we brought one home and looked it up. It was an American Holly. I'm pretty impressed with myself that we were able to look it up and make a whole learning experience out of it. I'll have to get an Audubon Society book of trees and plants to bring with us next time.
There isn't too much else to add. Dan had yesterday and today off from work. It's been nice having him home. Other than that we're just getting ready for the birthdays coming up. Mine and Owen's in the next few weeks, then Dan's and Katie's next month. It's an expensive time of year. Sorry no pictures today because I'm on my dad's computer. I'll try to blog in the next few days though and give you something fun to look at.
