Rowen's big, open mouth kisses he gives with a huge grin on his face. They may be the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">wettest</span> kisses, but they sure are the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">sweetest</span>.</div><div>2. The way he tries to save all his bath toys from the drain when the water is going down. As if he is afraid they might <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">disappear</span> with the water. What a good friend.</div><div>3. His willingness to always share his food, especially with daddy. He will even share his last bite. I hope his generous spirit continues to grow.</div><div>4. How he tries to swim in the bath but it is too shallow.</div>Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-53784623968359835302010-05-07T20:03:00.000-07:002010-05-07T21:11:03.863-07:00Happy Birthday Rowen!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnAThxdNcAKt32Nos6gByAp9_2fJJhXoWrIeA0x9jRiVInvdUQJJsc0OeP721DpvBxxQweEEWb7TZ5ALpVErjAR7iB5201ICAG1kBBek9nrd07n1InCNP_VdOfXaDAueSdEDd3X0t5n_xv/s1600/20100505_7038.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 122px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnAThxdNcAKt32Nos6gByAp9_2fJJhXoWrIeA0x9jRiVInvdUQJJsc0OeP721DpvBxxQweEEWb7TZ5ALpVErjAR7iB5201ICAG1kBBek9nrd07n1InCNP_VdOfXaDAueSdEDd3X0t5n_xv/s200/20100505_7038.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468746300161795522" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlj4dHE5silso_30YGVGCR85fruzhVgkiiG6SBjmK5wQ2sCVW5lcuC_yCy5PqKpLW0R50H-qtVLMdLGOna2JXsrYem8A5DPmEhpWxywgScdTr6KbFdotJEaIds9n1-ddVoNGOgWTSModBZ/s200/20100505_7036.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468745452360125442" /><div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Rowen enjoying his new fire truck :)<br /><br /></div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 133px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3Pp6XugzlafF8mqpzncIBm74Di36WGEjcHcggNuDqd8rKOtcnrPKWLe-CPS_4F8zQ9h4pEqLeIxjYspTdWTUOifwDhRbqvMmq2ZoTF_ZZHm3tXMn3a7BNk9fU93yq3QGi7O6unYZ3m3x3/s200/20100505_6994.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468745816620891826" /><div style="text-align: center;">Yummy Cupcake!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 130px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhI75kUhT_i9XNcvWpmikXNO8rbegrO4lyIWAeYH_kxcZxUkl5Km1HgVXtAdYlaAwUhl1177on7ROsiNktEoDPBRKLGy-VfJefoLeKOGIE5JgtKJg1R6VNgp1dkEjNSlcriirBSr4sGQDXt/s200/20100505_7026.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468744512207699186" /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 191px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_8n74p4F7eUVtKF-BGCzgNURz5iiJr5HMUajPW99BuNkzd1ihpBw8ZOxbpmtgq5gf_sFi0WTUb04m95dUViIw6BbZNYFLRVhmB8-Rxif3lyZ1pD5jfnK4y89lCZNFgfPVXicTzT3d-6qH/s200/20100505_7006.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468744483984929970" /><div style="text-align: center;">Soo BIG!!</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPv_4jN0IXaZWYT3lO-GVfvFqTLm4ogWbBN-qV_H3ID1TVqXXP_j38GRXBVnQAGGRlz0c3F1HzLYYQfIuVmcc2YQ4jmgyOl19V7k7pHsj2zHgwK5UJ7wDbmA_xhSIl3aM8KlQUgKwWHB77/s1600/20100505_7013.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPv_4jN0IXaZWYT3lO-GVfvFqTLm4ogWbBN-qV_H3ID1TVqXXP_j38GRXBVnQAGGRlz0c3F1HzLYYQfIuVmcc2YQ4jmgyOl19V7k7pHsj2zHgwK5UJ7wDbmA_xhSIl3aM8KlQUgKwWHB77/s200/20100505_7013.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468744498382594402" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Showing where his new teeth are!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>I cannot believe that my sweet little 7 lb 4 oz baby boy is now a 23 lb one year old! There are no words to express the absolute adoration I have for this precious boy. Just thinking about how much I love him brings tears to my eyes every time. I am so grateful to watch Rowen's sweet personality come to light alittle more each day. He has the brightest smile and a contagious laugh that gets me every time. Lately I have been calling him sunshine (partly due to the fact that he enjoys to wake up when the sun wakes up!) but mostly because that is the best way to describe him. He truly lights up my life. Each day seems to bring new milestones, some of the most recent is waving and saying 'bye bye' in the softest, sweetest voice. One of my favorites is if you ask where Elmo's nose is, he squeezes Elmo's nose...if only everyone had big orange noses he would have that one down! <div><br /></div><div>For his actual birthday, Chad and I gave him his firetruck Cozy Coupe which he LOVES!! He could go for rides in it for hours I am sure. He is so cute that he isn't quite big enough to get in and out himself, so he just climbs right on through the windows. After playing for a bit, he took his nap and then it was off to swim lessons. Poor little guy just started his lessons, so they are still pretty tramatic. I know he will get it though and be a little fishy in no time. His swim was soon forgetten though as he got to go to lunch with Grammie and Papa at Liberty Market; our favorite spot! He took down his pizza, probably the most I have seen this kid eat, which is saying a lot. My personal favorite part of the day was after dinner I gave Rowen a cupcake and sang him happy birthday. He must have remembered the joys of eating a cupcake from his birthday party because he wasted no time and went face first into the frosting. He giggled his way through the cake and was even nice enough to share with me. He was so precious with how he wanted to give me bites that how could I refuse?!? All in all we had such a fun day together and I feel so amazingly blessed to have such a precious boy to spend my days with. Being Rowen's mommy is beyond anything I could have ever hoped or dreamed. I love this little boy and know God will do great things in his life. My prayer for this year is that as he starts to learn how to talk, the stories about Jesus and God's Word will be continually on his lips. I cannot wait to see what this next year holds in store for my Rowen. </div></div>Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-61641971609365188492010-05-07T19:55:00.000-07:002010-05-07T20:00:30.885-07:00What a difference a year makes!<img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 133px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitxX6YZ2nmG-k_0OZfRstBDRK3sV9Poq2Zzg9FN33aQK114UvLyY7LJIWt8M_7A81k_Nyl8fcUHd26qwuzZPzjveW5NSBrhyxMb4x9qZoxBqaYmTGAaYGR-W0rUi3or_5Cw7WAyJDVfZSL/s200/IMG_0004.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468728347480148802" /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1gN7FT1nvb-AqRm7Shied7jZljFweQqB3z6vugxgWOOMVEIWOwf0pkPY6xCktibrOAQomRR-BqGHB7I2oqK12ENlaNgCQDyo9Rkq2ULZCt0Dxi4eB6tqSEwhD7hyphenhyphent-sQL-Z-SzMXcNnLF/s1600/20100412_7065.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 138px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1gN7FT1nvb-AqRm7Shied7jZljFweQqB3z6vugxgWOOMVEIWOwf0pkPY6xCktibrOAQomRR-BqGHB7I2oqK12ENlaNgCQDyo9Rkq2ULZCt0Dxi4eB6tqSEwhD7hyphenhyphent-sQL-Z-SzMXcNnLF/s200/20100412_7065.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468728368179602898" /></a>For mother's day last year Michael gave Rowen a soccer jersey he got on his visit to Turkey.

We wrestled him down to get his swimsuit on and lathered up in sunscreen for a whopping 15 minutes down at the beach. He sat in the sand for a minute before it sank in that he genuinely did not like the way the sand felt, dry or wet, and especially not the FREEZING ocean water. At least we got some sweet pictures to document our trip and will try again in June!Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-16730468030216493852010-03-15T16:31:00.001-07:002010-03-15T16:50:41.020-07:00Meeting Theo Pete<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtU8Dz6aqM34s8ua6hG_hL8qKhCqrg73P4ZFjS7oUBZj5XETgM71QOZS8dV_Ooo7hiH6yKuQIVveJzZ7H_uYbemG8hj3n6jBrLw1tdYFutKDOw8LhW_IvwPsWmgcxI2iwcg_32Hn1Oxg5U/s1600-h/DSC_0723.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 147px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtU8Dz6aqM34s8ua6hG_hL8qKhCqrg73P4ZFjS7oUBZj5XETgM71QOZS8dV_Ooo7hiH6yKuQIVveJzZ7H_uYbemG8hj3n6jBrLw1tdYFutKDOw8LhW_IvwPsWmgcxI2iwcg_32Hn1Oxg5U/s200/DSC_0723.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449011751067481906" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTuyqhv6jqBQXelOkfx9rQAJWy18_3eQUTTF6swMrdswT3LcKIHXNE0UpboU0ugzYivI_YlwLFjHyJ5Bgo6Ey1V49cTDpF5l6xR1hrvT4bKAURzHHj_qWkrvCgS_Tm5GIk-2xGrb50DUSK/s1600-h/DSC_0703.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 132px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTuyqhv6jqBQXelOkfx9rQAJWy18_3eQUTTF6swMrdswT3LcKIHXNE0UpboU0ugzYivI_YlwLFjHyJ5Bgo6Ey1V49cTDpF5l6xR1hrvT4bKAURzHHj_qWkrvCgS_Tm5GIk-2xGrb50DUSK/s200/DSC_0703.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449011742000601442" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMQ4DsHGMhZZWv4JIb90rUo84rkSkKmStsraVADyzvFRlc7oTZMkD660VNMxZOJbPUIO4pweVIfwEb225M0Zdk-FA5GZU95N-q_bWgLppiwhFhHkSVM5hYp4z23FTWdbIdFFgbOoFE2uHA/s1600-h/DSC_0694.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMQ4DsHGMhZZWv4JIb90rUo84rkSkKmStsraVADyzvFRlc7oTZMkD660VNMxZOJbPUIO4pweVIfwEb225M0Zdk-FA5GZU95N-q_bWgLppiwhFhHkSVM5hYp4z23FTWdbIdFFgbOoFE2uHA/s200/DSC_0694.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449011729432307362" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijAPaFrSXcbCVTuCX2HGP8Vgupg74izgZ6ka9rwfl1PGHaiHj4V0K-5JnF2eyy8JvY8ayMd2Iw_cIkV3zL6TKIWabz2vviAvVI5oJpk2RF_vTnkHqPnMtyaHlsKMK7NY6RNhQbEfNj_yZl/s1600-h/DSC_0683.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijAPaFrSXcbCVTuCX2HGP8Vgupg74izgZ6ka9rwfl1PGHaiHj4V0K-5JnF2eyy8JvY8ayMd2Iw_cIkV3zL6TKIWabz2vviAvVI5oJpk2RF_vTnkHqPnMtyaHlsKMK7NY6RNhQbEfNj_yZl/s200/DSC_0683.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449011721732664162" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy-I8N8rKtBu2d5qN1bOWBpBAW-p9RdRHp7DnSfDjzBGu-dovAynVTLRFdv5mVGQRge_RlnSAoQrV0iQPEwig5qLMOYJEUkTm3INRkaaCj2ZXXJfeGJlvMGHQEspfkPTKAoSkWMWHRbC48/s1600-h/DSC_0681.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy-I8N8rKtBu2d5qN1bOWBpBAW-p9RdRHp7DnSfDjzBGu-dovAynVTLRFdv5mVGQRge_RlnSAoQrV0iQPEwig5qLMOYJEUkTm3INRkaaCj2ZXXJfeGJlvMGHQEspfkPTKAoSkWMWHRbC48/s200/DSC_0681.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449011708138429362" border="0" /></a><br />Rowen finally got to meet Chad's good buddy Pete this weekend out in Coronado.The guys met in military school Chad's <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">sophomore</span> year of high school and have been super close since. It is not very often Chad and I are spontaneous, but we decided on Thursday to drive out to California for the weekend in hopes of seeing Pete who was in town for a friends wedding. We are so grateful we came; we have had such a nice time seeing Petey and enjoying the warm beach weather, not to mention yummy breakfasts with Pete at our favorite spots...Cafe 1134 and the Del for Sunday Brunch!Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-72684025942198402882010-03-07T17:52:00.000-08:002010-03-07T17:56:43.787-08:00Walking...AlmostAnyone who has seen Chad with Rowen knows he has been pushing walking since we brought Rowen home from the hospital. This kid doesnt need much encouragement to walk though, since he figured out how to crawl all he wants to do is crawl to new locations to pull himself up on and walk around. Tonight he started to get the concept of his little walker which as you can see made his daddy very very proud :)<div><br /></div><div><br /><div><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dyU4nve7qMnAIuaIrc0KlEpZNp2KwV-zDtJYDWeX4mErtjlDb1PJ46BfF07rYct4G9vdIS6h6S5KiZ82QIRzw' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div></div>Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-46670706799881117742010-03-07T17:39:00.000-08:002010-03-07T17:52:12.779-08:00Crazy ManToday was one of the first times we have put Rowen in the nursery at church (normally my parents watch him in the afternoons for us to go). Although Rowen hasn't had colic for some time, I think the anxiety of him screaming his head off for an hour for someone else sticks with you. I was excited to pick him up and hear about how he did. When I went to get him I was relieved to see that he was happily playing. Anyway, the nursery staff said he did great but called him "<i>very</i> curious" so I thought I would post this video to show my crazy man.

His latest had been standing at the end of his crib yelling and throwing his nuks (which to me was very cute). However, today he tried a new technique, chewing the side of his crib. I went in to check on him and found his face covered with wood chips and white paint. His drool apparantly had mixed with the paint chips and got paint stuck all over his sheets too. Awesome.

He loves exploring the world around him and the sound of his little hands pounding on the ground is something I will never forget. You can almost hear how proud he is of himself, I think the best way to describe his crawl is a strut. Once again, I have been blessed by my dad's gift of photography to get these sweet pictures of Rowen in action!Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-18946123134513829152010-02-27T14:35:00.000-08:002010-02-27T14:38:39.500-08:00So handsome<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWYI4GZdCDUmqDYBKUHidM7gNif_oWbeStnT9Ov51X74SENL1-1qN2EgcMsgP3gIf0ErDmuKlJIHjlkHVRTdjvtuxuJqUpmYGws-3CLkD9nUC3cWK49EhXp80w-MjeDH5Q1LXQsudggVNz/s1600-h/IMG_0017.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWYI4GZdCDUmqDYBKUHidM7gNif_oWbeStnT9Ov51X74SENL1-1qN2EgcMsgP3gIf0ErDmuKlJIHjlkHVRTdjvtuxuJqUpmYGws-3CLkD9nUC3cWK49EhXp80w-MjeDH5Q1LXQsudggVNz/s200/IMG_0017.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443056214879797362" /></a><br />Nothing really I have in mind to post, but this has been my favorite picture I have taken in the last 2 months so I thought I would share.

They love to take Rowen on new adventures (one of the most recent, and I must admit, not my favorite, was letting him play with the toilet bowl wand, yes, you read that correctly, the toilet bowl wand...need I say GROSS!?! They even captured it on video :) One of the sweet, and much more sanitary things they got for him is a cart for their bikes so he can go on rides with them. He has one in Coronado and LOVES it so they got one for here. He just looks like he could go fast, huh?

My little man is not so little anymore...he is only 9 months but wears 12-18 month clothing, has 7 teeth (almost 8!) and is crawling and pulling himself up on everything he can...including the wall. One of my favorite things he does is his goofy laugh. Instead of breathing out when he laughs, he breaths in and makes the funniest noise only he can make...trust me we try to copy him and just end up coughing! I love his sweet smile he seems to have on his face all the time now, it is truly such a blessing to have this mini man in our lives!Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-49308475280624379792009-12-25T15:03:00.000-08:002010-03-01T21:11:29.974-08:00Christmas Baby<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwdME65bxTP2EY6ZFBjxlL_IPTifvIkkwox6JNJs3zuyh8jhfakbC7-IwC2LQPPy3LWqvLYZRse9gpFdA-v6ZHBZLo8dp0WeRn7q8tpG_5zK2cgXvdFqT6Jsf9ydX90rS9GHUDuRWa-h8H/s1600-h/DSC_0586.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwdME65bxTP2EY6ZFBjxlL_IPTifvIkkwox6JNJs3zuyh8jhfakbC7-IwC2LQPPy3LWqvLYZRse9gpFdA-v6ZHBZLo8dp0WeRn7q8tpG_5zK2cgXvdFqT6Jsf9ydX90rS9GHUDuRWa-h8H/s200/DSC_0586.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443899568135802402" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcanCxEYo7XDFwGXE5torY9_8Qxerdy51TYTxdO7q1xkcFmBiHwIy3G_8foNBBTdI1M1wYJ1vhdT2SkmEABQQaHVpi1FsBZAgDKV75Oit8gaRCgET2vYx46Bwtv_bEEVh2zrQqYUxJBqki/s1600-h/IMG_0005.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 158px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcanCxEYo7XDFwGXE5torY9_8Qxerdy51TYTxdO7q1xkcFmBiHwIy3G_8foNBBTdI1M1wYJ1vhdT2SkmEABQQaHVpi1FsBZAgDKV75Oit8gaRCgET2vYx46Bwtv_bEEVh2zrQqYUxJBqki/s200/IMG_0005.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443064103593663506" /></a><br />I wasn't sure how Rowen would react to Christmas this year with his age, but <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">surprisingly</span> he really loved it. This year was special to me to have my family over Christmas morning for breakfast and presents. It was such a sweet and relaxing time together to enjoy each other as a family. One thing my mom did was give us each a gift that was a blessing for someone else. Rowen got a goat for a family in <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Africa</span>, I got baby supplies for mothers in <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Africa</span> and Chad got aide for small businesses in <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Africa</span>.

The only sad thing is he will not say it when Chad is around, but luckily I got it on video :) He is laughing in the beginning because I am splashing water on him. We were practicing drinking out of a straw when I accidentally flicked water in his face which he found hilarious. So I did what any mom would do, I kept doing it until we were both nice and wet!<div> </div><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzuU7V9IHVYfXswZaBVa1CXXqaWAhguiXYKCg9TZOc1GtGWxlZLVbGZi8LNNZw6EhoAPP3Y5IzxiTW-Tm4h1w' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-27454530366298111462009-12-03T09:40:00.000-08:002009-12-03T09:44:12.391-08:00Quiet Time!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIsdr_l73bGXpXsKcaH059DgrmL4HFXdDJcrB47SS3ulMVZqvIhLcKyBwIic-HDtSPApwRrstJ6IYXBNGEbHXckiNICmlHx6PmBo-8Lt1JuShji8apxCmitxgDTkcRCXCFfxGsODiqY4X2/s1600-h/DSC_0563.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 133px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIsdr_l73bGXpXsKcaH059DgrmL4HFXdDJcrB47SS3ulMVZqvIhLcKyBwIic-HDtSPApwRrstJ6IYXBNGEbHXckiNICmlHx6PmBo-8Lt1JuShji8apxCmitxgDTkcRCXCFfxGsODiqY4X2/s200/DSC_0563.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5411067033371067170" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH_gzfZiyH4JW2lHdEDPzRzWnzqGzICclO0DJR-1urSJ6ibgk9p7QKQ7QptjNJY1t5ES84ddL8o7Xb4-334fZAJ2RqxVzUjKv7P-OuYdvOpurq2_ZuyKANHLeBiVhI0ujNtydT1J9awGbA/s1600-h/DSC_0565.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 146px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH_gzfZiyH4JW2lHdEDPzRzWnzqGzICclO0DJR-1urSJ6ibgk9p7QKQ7QptjNJY1t5ES84ddL8o7Xb4-334fZAJ2RqxVzUjKv7P-OuYdvOpurq2_ZuyKANHLeBiVhI0ujNtydT1J9awGbA/s200/DSC_0565.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5411067027653659746" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjvZziGhrYLu-rZEoOkowxx0na9FPF76BvWcPf0268ncXJstNjGb5oFX5kaDe7MvYp-PRJWKieiHN3WVvV9xrDCeeZq4gq99AKUJ6QM7SYUtiEAxE5LEgJe2Iaml8fuGGl4U8vDnwi45Qm/s1600-h/DSC_0567.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 133px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjvZziGhrYLu-rZEoOkowxx0na9FPF76BvWcPf0268ncXJstNjGb5oFX5kaDe7MvYp-PRJWKieiHN3WVvV9xrDCeeZq4gq99AKUJ6QM7SYUtiEAxE5LEgJe2Iaml8fuGGl4U8vDnwi45Qm/s200/DSC_0567.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5411067018943536450" /></a><br />Since Rowen still is not a fan of nap time in his crib, we have established "quiet time".

We went to my Aunt Carol's "cousins pumpkin carving party" on Friday night and had a great time eating Mexican food and seeing all the kiddies dressed up in their costumes. The sweetest part was how excited Parker was to see Rowen and play with him. I guess he is happy to have another white haired boy to play with! On Halloween we had a low key day around the house and then went over to Dusty and Tina's to get some pictures of the cousins together. Poor Rowen was a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">caterpillar</span> this year, although I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">don't</span> think he was a big fan of the costume. <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Every time</span> we went to take pictures of him on his tummy, he was face down and refused to push up and smile. It was actually pretty funny. We finished the day by having dinner and trick or treating with our great friends the Arnces. Little Donovan was "Super Lion", half lion / half super hero, but somehow no pants :) Very funny and cute to watch him run down the street with his cape flying. All in all, it was a great first Halloween!<div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div>Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-79843953891739156292009-11-27T15:09:00.000-08:002010-02-27T15:14:26.587-08:00Baby Turkey!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAJQf4jDJ-6RaFoBwbJTccEQXKc8EX61DOG-hLXx84x9_Re5XbMg5AX3Y3IiABrAd7AuCM4MzohsNhzuw50b0C5ceAH6Ui0qbJUjMT9QkmVNO1T2HgHbvGFjwNVWO4kFl0ShQJLUfmhcUX/s1600-h/IMG_0004.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 148px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAJQf4jDJ-6RaFoBwbJTccEQXKc8EX61DOG-hLXx84x9_Re5XbMg5AX3Y3IiABrAd7AuCM4MzohsNhzuw50b0C5ceAH6Ui0qbJUjMT9QkmVNO1T2HgHbvGFjwNVWO4kFl0ShQJLUfmhcUX/s200/IMG_0004.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443065421574292178" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-kzerejy__Kxtk1wz0LZ1VA2UI9SPFMJ7-vYDBeRrUSygVmRJtuzu_alrNEIJhsNXcxa4iJTujlmHrSbwptGjZkOaDJXpB3con5y4x-es9aWCM0ClZTQ8oqUeJRYwxYBxUSEsSL0pGPWQ/s1600-h/13765_1287262185544_1349876765_30831365_3838161_n.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 198px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-kzerejy__Kxtk1wz0LZ1VA2UI9SPFMJ7-vYDBeRrUSygVmRJtuzu_alrNEIJhsNXcxa4iJTujlmHrSbwptGjZkOaDJXpB3con5y4x-es9aWCM0ClZTQ8oqUeJRYwxYBxUSEsSL0pGPWQ/s200/13765_1287262185544_1349876765_30831365_3838161_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443065415525612770" /></a><br />Anyone who knows me well enough should know that my favorite holiday is most definitely Thanksgiving, and the best part of Thanksgiving is sweet rice (and maybe spending time with family, but mostly sweet rice!) It was such a joy to spend my favorite holiday with my sweet boy. I have to admit I was a bit disappointed at his disapproval of my potatoes, but the squash I made him got major points so I guess I did ok. I cannot wait for next year since my boy has become quite the eater lately :)Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-31936116204297356412009-10-28T17:30:00.000-07:002009-10-28T17:39:20.537-07:00A few of my favorite things...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMkmwcQmanTCH9Q1wB9h6gFc73IWJ1tXFyuPharvCSefeWpdPm30xrLQ5fg5uAInLGhPjTvVNjKZrweASTsfDUsY5911M9zvEUvJcR8pKbKAkwn8OPArtWuVKERwPCWCk9LTqNjzqq_JvK/s1600-h/DSC_0571.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 166px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMkmwcQmanTCH9Q1wB9h6gFc73IWJ1tXFyuPharvCSefeWpdPm30xrLQ5fg5uAInLGhPjTvVNjKZrweASTsfDUsY5911M9zvEUvJcR8pKbKAkwn8OPArtWuVKERwPCWCk9LTqNjzqq_JvK/s200/DSC_0571.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397814326040981410" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1442PI_EnPY5gfS-7aETxB0NCZpI__Kdm9G7AaVWCg1EUu3mchT2_YxZxttg97tZrPqojx33ArQnwVtSPClken7bhmc7rYhRdrc1fpdrgMLhJ8lpwVbFsYNZBe5Ei75uJ70x0ifBtG-Pt/s1600-h/DSC_0585.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 136px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1442PI_EnPY5gfS-7aETxB0NCZpI__Kdm9G7AaVWCg1EUu3mchT2_YxZxttg97tZrPqojx33ArQnwVtSPClken7bhmc7rYhRdrc1fpdrgMLhJ8lpwVbFsYNZBe5Ei75uJ70x0ifBtG-Pt/s200/DSC_0585.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397814052728831666" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfpFhRf2Dq2bDrhvT44LowkWff8_xwBRw4lXuKvheCySepCfaqVLY3Wh2Pbx192jqcRj2ZT-PA_enRL1vo9dfIFIydUQz5BF6epTZQkKHQqdEfuQPRj1xGlgHKVPKoyxTayfILyPMLWFW4/s1600-h/DSC_0614.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfpFhRf2Dq2bDrhvT44LowkWff8_xwBRw4lXuKvheCySepCfaqVLY3Wh2Pbx192jqcRj2ZT-PA_enRL1vo9dfIFIydUQz5BF6epTZQkKHQqdEfuQPRj1xGlgHKVPKoyxTayfILyPMLWFW4/s200/DSC_0614.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397814027617946610" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ2hpmWWnYdtRvarzwmMoFy0Mn1XNyZ36LZQzD52FAIHy1aHh7ITYc-7vbV5e2owUA-i5NkFXBxVKl41Kji0NYrG03PJQkucqbEBGnnLNWTJOUIVEOCIAzyZB5Mpu4MY5Par764gawmQz-/s1600-h/DSC_0604.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ2hpmWWnYdtRvarzwmMoFy0Mn1XNyZ36LZQzD52FAIHy1aHh7ITYc-7vbV5e2owUA-i5NkFXBxVKl41Kji0NYrG03PJQkucqbEBGnnLNWTJOUIVEOCIAzyZB5Mpu4MY5Par764gawmQz-/s200/DSC_0604.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397814023240660466" /></a><br />Rowen has a bundle on energy and since he discovered his exersaucer and jumper he is a very happy camper. He always has a great smile, but when he is playing the way his eyes light up melt my heart. <div><br /></div><div>His second love would be food, particularly butternut squash, sweet peas and the always popular rice cereal. He attacks his food!! Good thing we have trained him not to put his hands in his mouth when he eats, so he dive bombs the spoon with his face instead...it is very cute to see how excited he gets when it is mealtime :) </div><div><br /></div><div>Lastly, he loves him some bath time. We got him a yellow duck bath which he can splash and play in. We all get wet, but hey, he is clean and happy so no complaining here!</div>Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-87040283065062848472009-10-28T17:11:00.000-07:002009-10-28T17:30:05.128-07:00handsome boy!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQjAlA39S6jSVzLg_7hj8NwucPt7YXL0P90NhrCbBAmySKClSoCXoYFGJ_QzAfcRolY_twQlzGwsANH7vTWDAO8kbNgZoEXkfggoGmDtMeqENZzaUvG2Vjp53Of1yPIuOEctGMiHg5vBP6/s1600-h/DSC_0578.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 133px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQjAlA39S6jSVzLg_7hj8NwucPt7YXL0P90NhrCbBAmySKClSoCXoYFGJ_QzAfcRolY_twQlzGwsANH7vTWDAO8kbNgZoEXkfggoGmDtMeqENZzaUvG2Vjp53Of1yPIuOEctGMiHg5vBP6/s200/DSC_0578.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397808625863978642" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaQR-F41Kp0cygF9FlsrnEb7VxezCa4ldabxPRtNTGRytMMrIVE2SmwNPEffeidwC8fo7keJUFYyokfQ9uVNm8mXeAGRtln3fB16Dvlenq7uxYBn_k7aBvJA5fOP8fJiCMtb3DKoLRjnvH/s1600-h/DSC_0560.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaQR-F41Kp0cygF9FlsrnEb7VxezCa4ldabxPRtNTGRytMMrIVE2SmwNPEffeidwC8fo7keJUFYyokfQ9uVNm8mXeAGRtln3fB16Dvlenq7uxYBn_k7aBvJA5fOP8fJiCMtb3DKoLRjnvH/s200/DSC_0560.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397808617231868210" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB0meYnmI3EVJbPaFXee-FhRQm5VCWgKoJKBje2IHuGJ_fB4nCv6rB2c2zw9te7quN2thnr9FnQK0qZAmz7CJWs8sEu20C736qU6dwhzQ773SY3r0NGTLnPcds8AxiMovYId0EL-VZPj6v/s1600-h/DSC_0537.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB0meYnmI3EVJbPaFXee-FhRQm5VCWgKoJKBje2IHuGJ_fB4nCv6rB2c2zw9te7quN2thnr9FnQK0qZAmz7CJWs8sEu20C736qU6dwhzQ773SY3r0NGTLnPcds8AxiMovYId0EL-VZPj6v/s200/DSC_0537.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397808601075541826" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8IR-r57xGzY3ntTUmkYg91uWnN34ZvV7UwEarJYYvU82XjZpZzwGnlpLhtdr4XMLb4GdhbV1H5pvlrMh1UmBBqRQJ-dMmPhHS0lfv6esvViffYKrv7MklQhFzDT2gKsj1K1-FvAaT_-76/s1600-h/DSC_0498.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8IR-r57xGzY3ntTUmkYg91uWnN34ZvV7UwEarJYYvU82XjZpZzwGnlpLhtdr4XMLb4GdhbV1H5pvlrMh1UmBBqRQJ-dMmPhHS0lfv6esvViffYKrv7MklQhFzDT2gKsj1K1-FvAaT_-76/s200/DSC_0498.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397808586631914642" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitsXmyKlTf-SNWQ05wtL3JXtF0AP8vCV9kx9iiRE8Q7BsqpNh3l2NobufvzTyDQFQ9Fs5CRUZRS8J0al0Wjhrqnvp_Akdsw8G4khZNtUgoKBbZxsslgkAr8zwdacedVx9Dne2ylhmTufgL/s1600-h/DSC_0523.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 135px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitsXmyKlTf-SNWQ05wtL3JXtF0AP8vCV9kx9iiRE8Q7BsqpNh3l2NobufvzTyDQFQ9Fs5CRUZRS8J0al0Wjhrqnvp_Akdsw8G4khZNtUgoKBbZxsslgkAr8zwdacedVx9Dne2ylhmTufgL/s200/DSC_0523.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397808579321003618" /></a><br />This past month has flown by and Rowen is getting bigger everyday.

Yesterday was his first adventure with eating rice cereal and it took him a few minutes to figure out how to swallow, but he eagerly opened his mouth and enjoyed his meal very much. I still can't believe my little baby boy is going to be 5 months in a week and starting to eat real food.

My little guy is not so little anymore. He is now 15 lbs 10 oz and 26 inches long! I thought it was pretty funny when the doctor called him "skinny" for his height! I guess he is just all cheeks :)<div><br /></div><div>Today was also another big milestone day, his first big roll over! We have been working on his tummy time and today was pretty typical, he pushes up for a minute or two and then gives up and takes a short nap :) But when my little man woke up all smiles I thought I would grab a few pictures and he was so excited he flipped over. He seemed pretty pleased with himself. Unfortunately, when I rolled him back to his tummy to see if he would do it again he got pretty mad at me...I guess he worked really hard to get off that tummy why the heck would I put him back on it again?! All in all, a pretty exciting morning in the Littell house! </div>Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-69998626825371326452009-09-07T18:22:00.000-07:002009-09-07T18:37:44.103-07:00For Uncle Mike...<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxiGbbOk6eWiS2ru0zKA4SKw9VMcy_S3dAUsLZgO71HUEnOuCzrULtQfi0KNXOthrR9eeFvR5Yew69VZfeR7A' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-285673896661909852009-09-07T10:32:00.000-07:002009-09-07T10:50:29.078-07:00New method to calm a teething baby...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-FOSdjol8gjwwAHkU60klH0yYXrCm8vKVi9lOYAgNnf4WKFZrpeqgAF9d-dKB8VidjIrbQZ8XaXtytF0xxox4-HC-Qftay7K5jICYDMLg6_3j_WVYqGTxsWYdQt8_4Y4oWWFSrFO9sa5T/s1600-h/two+fisted+ro.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Rowen did absolutely amazing. He slept the whole way down and through our first winery visit which was fantastic. We all split a cheese plate and tasted a wine flight, which was very yummy and relaxing. My parents have a thing for taking pictures of Rowen with things he should not be having, hence the picture of him with the wine and me drinking a glass of wine while breastfeeding (for the record, I was only taking a SIP!) We finished off the day at a spanish winery with tacos, tempernillo and a little spanish guitar. The lead guy liked Rowen so much that during one of his songs he let Rowen play...I think they both got a pretty big kick out of it.Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-82838311964279063392009-09-06T09:01:00.000-07:002009-09-06T09:06:17.793-07:00My Son is already a Celebrity!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLvoVUZN5jAYRBK8Ehrvd8Pj_S5tY1nocbUGeGhDDXZ6YK2qk2QaUTW_iw_WEQ2R3k3hFjJQHvfsqgSVQEuTyIlHmzl-gQ_5OrTXAcR_zJ25fpMOS0oYHOR_QPvvMR3UXfTpggdcFSO28R/s1600-h/celebrity+Ro.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 133px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLvoVUZN5jAYRBK8Ehrvd8Pj_S5tY1nocbUGeGhDDXZ6YK2qk2QaUTW_iw_WEQ2R3k3hFjJQHvfsqgSVQEuTyIlHmzl-gQ_5OrTXAcR_zJ25fpMOS0oYHOR_QPvvMR3UXfTpggdcFSO28R/s200/celebrity+Ro.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5378386406762196530" border="0" /></a><br />Ok this was pretty funny. Yesterday we took Rowen for a ride around the island, which he loved (of course, Chad was pulling him so he went VERY fast!) When we stopped for lunch, this group of about 6 Japanese tourist kept pointing and getting all excited and started taking pictures of Rowen! I think they wanted to hold him but I had to draw the line there. This guy was hilarious, he even took pictures with Chad but unfortunately we didn't get a picture of that. I guess we got a small glimpse of what it would be like to be famous...kinda strange!Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626596263887248433.post-61783242028258206892009-09-03T09:33:00.000-07:002009-09-03T09:43:38.746-07:00Play Time!<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAuwD0MMB3rsMdob8WWRfdhY0oMPXC-WgGvU_rswKjDcXArsTkYFqhEi2K0a8dR9I04RmwuATmIyVyCJXxG9qgKq4dSxLoTGmCzWH_7NhIuiOi014rZcI2EmqxT6V85Q6N-mxhWabHEZgu/s200/DSC_0149.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377282032852887378" /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAY0jRcWyocjsYo4HTSr5Dzk4k_ewo6dkoQ4Uds_L5oTSlCXiCD3w2tpveHCuCqwM7ExU7BJWWI1g61h-CJ9LxGuiM9MdWuyXT2Ltjqe1_WTgYJ_H1g5buRmzkUktb1-g-A1WelNH-LJMx/s200/DSC_0123.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377282017242973922" /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcDCKspW-BbBNKgIkr5NJGVtciJG_Ni_nm-GAfMQlfLadzXGir7p4NYuDnEarE9AbpoMZK0X8kPK8_aMYpQw7jRpUzaewt1sVo31F4ekSlYrzAmeLZCknzHNi7GMxwEiKYmp-uUULSSUbo/s200/DSC_0140.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377282003617577458" /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitVSuIRPF66OImv0bYAh0sYLgnxf1t1w7_Ftt6l7ySSbgA-d4f7026c1EhpYK1jCqH08_iwu3d0vz07aRtUYX1uMgX3whyZtUgvuu9Kk4f5ycZhbGRqI4eux5UIdIqRqfjQuqgjzPfYEmA/s200/DSC_0138.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377282041413950914" /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><br />Rowen is getting to such a great age where he is finally finally starting to enjoy all the toys that fill our house. A big milestone for us is he will chill in his swing and on a very lucky day even take a nap in it (I know, I thought I was going to have the only child in history that didn't like the swing!) It has been so nice to be able to put him on his playmat or exersaucer and watch him have fun while I do something around the house. <div><br /></div><div>My last picture doesn't have anything to do with playing, but who could put this little beauty back in his crib in the morning after his first morning feeding when he looks like this??? I just lay there and stare (and yes, usually fall back asleep...that is the joys of having only one right?!)</div>Littell Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06082568134933703991noreply@blogger.com2
