Hair

I took these pictures so you could see that although it looks like Rowen has no hair in the front of her head she actually does have hair on the back of her head = Mullet! 

This is Rowen's new favorite thing emptying out the fridge! Yes she is holding the margarita mix, she is turning into quite the wild woman!!

A cute picture of Guster. Poor Guster has been getting a lot of attention from Rowen in the form of ear pulling, hair pulling and body slamming! He is so patient with her and she truly adores him.

Sunriver

This is our annual Sunriver trip with friends from Ashland. The cabin was great and Sunriver was beautiful but unfortunately Rowen and I were a little sick. But I guess if your going to be sick it might as well be in a beautiful place with great friends!

Me, Brianna, and Kyla on our little winter walk. Bri is a labor and delivery nurse and she was actually my labor nurse when Rowen was born. Ky is an ER nurse. I haven't needed her services yet and hopefully never will!!  

Uncle Al and Rowen hanging out on the couch. They were both uncertain of each other!

Rowen and Tayden. They had fun playing together. Rowen was obsessed with Tayden's pacifier and poor Tayden just put up with it! He is the happiest baby on the planet, always has a big smile on his face. 

Spoons!!

We let Rowen feed herself for the first time and let me just say that she is now obsessed with the spoons! She likes to carry them all over the house now, who needs toys?!?

She actually did a pretty good job at getting the food in her mouth at first.

Then the shirt came off and she got down to business! What a mess!!

But how could you deny a kid so much fun?

Silly Girl!

No Rowen's hair did not come in pink! This hat was knitted and they were giving them away so I thought why not. She doesn't love it on her head but she definitely laughs when she sees herself in the mirror.

Rowen riding her new horse from Grammy and Grampy

Rowen's evil eye!

Idaho Fishing

Russ went fishing in Idaho on the drift boat with my brother Travis. It was freezing cold but beautiful.

Travis and Russ with their catch!

Christmas 2008

Auntie Kimber helping Rowen open her new train set. Her friend Avery has this toy so she knew what it was and was very excited to play with it!

Her new horse, she loves it but poor Russ had to drive home with horsey behind his seat pushing his knees into steering wheel!!

The only present Grammy wanted for Christmas-- Rowen!

Christmas 2008

We spent Christmas in Idaho this year and after a long 13 hour drive we were very happy to be there!  Rowen was very excited about ripping the wrapping paper!

Aunt Heidie helping Rowen open her new bath toys.

Rowen decided that the wrapping paper was pretty enough to eat!

Just about every gift went straight to the mouth. Notice the refreshment in this picture, no this was not a gift! Rowen cut her first tooth on Christmas day and was pretty miserable. Her frozen item of choice to suck on happened to be this lovely can!
