Wow where has this year gone? My grandson Owen, turns 1 year old July 2, 2007. Seems like only yesterday I was bringing his mother home from the hospital. Now she is a mother with 2 beautiful children of her own.
My grandson has made some mile markers this past week, he has starting walking without holding on to anything. His words he is saying is baby but he says it like baaay bayy. Ni ni for sleepy time. mawmawmaw for me yours truly. mum mum for mommy, da da for daddy and pa paaaaa for grandpa Mike.
Although they may not be perfectly pronounces we all know exactly what he means.
We are so excited about him walking , all the girls walked at 9 months but Owen was born premature, so really he is on time considering his start in life.
Today we had his birthday party, there were so many people at my house I didn't even know half of them.( his mom and dad did the guest list) It was a great time had by all I think.
Lots of food was consumed ,with all the normal grill out fixings.
Hamburger, hot dogs, baked beans , tater salad ( american and german) mac salad, watermelon, chips and relishes. the list goes on...
We arranged to play games so the kids could win prizes. We had a duck pond, Feed the rabbit bean toss, and a bean bag toss where they landed on a certain square to win that prize. Toss the football through the hula hoop. They seem to have a great time trying to win.
Owen opened gifts with the help of his mom and dad.
Of course we can't forget the cake and ice cream.
Everyone sang happy birthday and Owen clapped.
Well the the party is over and time for me to relax.
Good evening dear blog. I will see you the next time I have something to share.
