This is our baby backpack for hikes in the woods
Owen is still a little unsure about this mode of travel...

Owen got a walker this month, but so far all he can
do is sit in it.

...He also got a nice outfit with shoes, even though
he can't even crawl yet. I think this might be a    
preview of how he'll look when he's about 60    

The highlights of this month:

This month Owen has been starting to develop some better skills with his hands. He can finally reach out and grab whatever he wants unerringly... including big people's hair. During early morning feeding he delights in yanking a handful of hair & giggling as my sleepy eyes fly wide open!

He enjoys sitting in his walker even though his feet don't reach the floor yet. He's also enjoying the thrill of being in his swing with the switch on "high", or better yet, a big person pushing him higher.

Owen is starting to work on rolling over, but doesn't quite have it yet. He'll decide he wants something out of reach and strain to roll that direction, but usually gives up in frustration after reaching for about 5 minutes.

We had some unusually warm days this month, so Owen has gotten a taste of long walks in his stroller and seems to enjoy it, although he sometimes has to be woken up to smile at the neighbors.
