So last night Owen developed this rash over his entire body. I was in the middle of making dinner when we noticed. I started to freak out and immediately called Kara. Your cousin being your pediatrician is a wonderful thing. I don't really understand how you are supposed to know what to do with your newborn. You just sort of guess. You can read books, but where is the chapter on Owen's rash? So anyways, calling Kara made me happy. And tomorrow if he is still having this rash that keeps growing we are taking him to see her in the office.
2. Walker ResearchToday I went to Walker Research and did a focus group on bagels and english muffins. I was there for an hour. I ate bagels, english muffins, and cookies. I got paid $75. Oh happy day!
3. Alone time with each boy
Yesterday I had time to sit with each boy individually and read some books. It was really nice to spend time with each one and not have worry about the other one crying.
4. The Last Day of Greg's Boot
We have been looking forward to tomorrow for six weeks. Greg's boot will finally come off. We are both very excited.
5. Owen loves to smile and interact
In the past few days Owen has really started to smile and interact. Every time we put the camera in his face he stops. But trust me, it is cute. It would make YOU happy to see it too. Instead I am putting these pictures from Valentines Day and this afternoon when the boys were taking a short snooze on the couch.
Hello Sister! Mom and I just read your blog -- super fum. It's fun to write isn't it? Therapeutic and fun! Also, glad that Kara could help. We had our own emergency here today. Newborns are fun and there are no chapters on how to be a great Mom but you are doing great!

PS Our Mom burned my oven tonight making dinner -- it was really funny. :) Miss you!
Also -- just realized I wrote "fun" way too many times in my last comment. Things are fun -- but not that fun.
