Owen is 2 weeks old today, and we woke up to the news that President Obama was re-elected, yay! This week Dad went back to work, but has been staying home in the morning to help so Mom can get some baby-free sleep. We took Owen out in the Manduca carrier on walks in the woods, where he walked every day inside mama before he was born. Owen and Mom also visited Auntie Olga, whose baby is overdue, in hopes holding Owen would bring her some good luck to get labor going. Owen is doing a lot of eating and sleeping and growing this week. He doesn't like to be put down, so Mom is learning to do things one-handed. All in all, we are learning more and more about eachother every day, and we love taking care of him.
Very occasionally, Owen lets us put him down in his swing.

With his cloth diapers on, Owen is already wearing 0-3 months clothes.
Daddy tried out the carrier for the first time.
Cell phone self-portraits are a little more difficult now! Sorry Dad.

| Owen isn't super interested in toys yet. |

| Christmas cactus is already in full bloom this week! |

End of a meal, one satisfied customer.
Daddy, the baby whisperer.
We can't stop taking photos of that face. We think he looks like an older boy,
but the rest of his body is definitely that of a flimsy 2 week old!
Sound asleep, as long as he's on dad.
Awake!
...and back asleep. :)
