Owen birthday {part two}

Oh dear...it is true...another photo overload...I am certainly glad I split this birthday into two posts.  Owen's birthday was full of lots of fun.  Owen seemed to be pleased with the day...starting things off with some blueberry pancakes and ending with cupcakes...not too bad!  One of the things that I cherish most about this blog is that I get to look back and read and re-read everything that has happened over the past year.  Owen has proven to be a big old handful and we love every bit of him.  If you want to take a trip down memory lane with me you can check out his birth story or one of his weekly or monthly updates...I know I sure have spent too much time looking at them.
