A dumptruck, lots of rocks, a new sand box and nothing on but underwear... what could be better?


Daddy worked tirelessly all day long on various projects around the yard... the garden, the sand box, the sprinkler system, etc. Mommy also worked all day on various things around the house... laundry, cleaning, laundry, more laundry etc. Rowen worked hard all day playing, playing, playing and getting VERY dirty in the process.

Most of the day Rowen ran around the house and yard in only his Lightning McQueen underwear. This is because Rowen had a huge "aha" moment today... he went both potty and poopy in his toilet today!!!! He is thrilled with himself and so are we. As soon as he finished the deed he asked to wear his underwear and of course we said yes! He has several pairs to choose from but not surprisingly he chose the Lightning pair :). He is far from potty trained but this is an exciting first step. He tried a few more times throughout the day and we praised him for all of his efforts.













Ending the day with a little ice cream :)

You are my Rowen...


The "cheese!" smile :)

Sung to the tune of "You are my sunshine"


You are my Rowen.
My only Rowen.
You make me happy when skies are gray.
You'll always know, Ro, how much I love you.
For I'll tell you everyday.

Happy Birthday to Mommy and Aunt Erin

Rowen Sings Happy Birthday Video

First Hair Cut

At almost 28 months old, Rowen got his first hair cut today!
Thanks Nana :)



Planting Flowers




Rowen picked out his own flowers at the store this weekend. He carried his flowers all over the store all by himself and talked about them all the way home. After he woke up from his nap we immediately planted his flowers. He was a big help and is taking such good care of them.

Rowen's Sunday afternoon concert

I think that from now on this is how I will post videos. I am having so much trouble getting blogger to upload videos that this is just so much easier and saves a TON of time. Linking from volkbaby.com was easy but the audio was always on... that was kind of annoying.

Sorry that this video is sideways :).

We hope you enjoy!

Spring Break 2010

Spring Break 2010 was simple yet busy... we just spent lots of time with family doing lots of relaxing things. Here is Spring Break 2010 in 6 photos :)





Going on a road trip to Silver Mountain with Mommy, Daddy, Grammy and Papa.



Rowen, amazed at how his tummy could suck in and
push out during a breather at the water park.

Feeding the horse near Grammy and Papa's house (and our house too I guess:)).



Wrestling with the Birthday Boy... Bennett is 2!


Getting ready to hunt Easter Eggs.


Finding eggs all over the yard.
