Because of Covid, we did not have a party for him besides a family gathering. A yummy ice cream cake with four candles and party hats for the family! Owen has recently claimed the back add on bedroom above the third garage that was initially built for Dawson's baby nursery. Jaxton took a turn in there for a few years, and then it was used as a little library and then a toy room. Owen has been sleeping in there for fun and saying it is his. So we decided to deck out his little space in an ocean theme. For his birthday he got a shark bedding set and pillow, new toy bins, and an octopus & beanbag. His little "shark" room is fun and quaint for him. Grandma in Utah got him a castle set and Grandma in Kendallville got him a PJ Masks rocketship set. He was so proud to be 4 and has been waiting for his birthday for so so long.
Some fun things about Owen at age four are:
1. His favorite TV shows lately are Power Rangers, PJ Masks, Cat Boy & Lava Girl.
2. His favorite friends are Nora, Ezra, Claire, and Daisy May from his class at school.
3. Owen's favorite thing to do in the mornings is to sit and sip his hot chocolate and my hot coffee together. He has asked to do that outside, the way we began doing that in the mornings, but it has been so cold. I am looking forward to warm weather that will allow this tradition again.
4. Owen has very little fear. He does whatever his older siblings are doing and gets himself in the middle of wrestling matches and running races without thinking about his age and size. He is driven to not be left behind, but wants to stay in the mix of everything going on.
5. Owen enjoys 2 songs at night, of which we rotate every evening. "I Love You Owen" (the old Girls' Camp tune) and "A Bushel & a Peck" of which he does not understand one word of, but knows how to sing the entire song. :-)
We love this kid! Happy Birthday Big Boy!
