Owen turned one year old today. It's been a crazy year with new worlds opened up to us and lots to learn. It's still hard to believe that it's been a whole year since Owen was born through such a crazy delivery (I was sent home and then he was born an hour after we went back in!) and he was taken to the NICU at Childrens hospital for breathing difficulties. It was tough, but we got through it and are still getting through. Owen is such a joy and has stolen many hearts. Our family has been blessed many times over since he came into our lives and I can't wait to see the ways in which we will continue to be blessed. With Owen's birthday so close to Thanksgiving, I have been very conscious recently of how thankful I am for all of the specialists and other people who look after Owen. We have some wonderful people taking care of us and I am very grateful for that. I started to make a list, but it was REALLY long, so I won't go into the details here. Anyway, we had a great time getting to celebrate with family. We don't get to do that nearly enough and getting to share this big day with them was very special. We all took lots of pictures, but I don't have time to go through them all now so I'll post a few soon. Sorry!
Happy birthday, sweet boy!

I can't believe he's already one! He's such a cutie! Happy 1st birthday, Owen!
I don't know how time has sped up so much, but it's crazy to think that all of that happened a year ago. Remember the days when a year seemed like such a looooong time? Guess that means I'm officially old. Happy Birthday, Owen!
Happy Birthday, Owen. What a blessed year it has been, watching him grow an change. It has also been a joy watching Kate learn to share and then become a helpful, loving big sister. Grandpa and I love you both so much.
