What a year it has been

I still can't start to comprehend that we have an almost one year old. It is crazy how fast the year has gone by, although there were times that I remember just wanting to fast forward and those that I wanted to freeze and never wanted them to end. So last night I decided to put together a little video of Owen's first year and boy did it bring back all sorts of emotions. I couldn't help but smile as I watched it (over and over) and I think that is just what you need to do sometimes to recharge and really appreciate how lucky you really are. Owen is one fun loving little boy that is stubborn as hell (I swear he was born that way), smart, a little daredevil, mamma's boy, knows what he wants and of course very curious. He keeps us all on our toes and makes sure I don't have much time to do anything but keep an eye on him but I can't imagine our lives without him and can't wait to see what next year holds.

So if you have time (yes it is 8 minutes long ... and to get it that short took a lot of editing) and want to relish in the milestones, achievements and of course all of the gummy smiles of our little Owen, please do. It really has been an unbelievable year (there is sound ... you may need to adjust the volume using the button on the slideshow).
