At 34 months Owen:
- Makes little brother Cole look like the easiest child to care for ever.
- Is beginning to realize that "God made it that way" is a cop out answer used to end his ...why? why? why? questioning marathons.
- Is now following the 3 sleep time rules, "Lay in bed, Close your eyes and no whining". However, he only follows them because a special treat will arrive the next day.
- Loves Thomas the Train
- Must consider 17 his favorite number since he normally skips to 17 and then repeats it several times very excitedly.
- Refuses to wear blue jeans and insists on wearing khakis with elastic waistbands.
- Just pushed out 2 molars

- Loves going to the zoo.
- Loves to be outside doing anything. Especially playing with water, dirt or sand.
- Takes a 2 hour nap at school.
- Was the first one selected to sleep in the "sleep tent" at school because he takes such good naps there.
- Knows how to drag bed time out for up to 2 hours by using the, ghosts, monsters, thirsty, need blanket, need daddy's blanket, not old enough to close my eyes, need a Kleenex, need the whole box of Kleenex, light turned up, not that much!, not that low!, I need Mommy, I want daddy, I need three glasses of water, I need my sleepy time friends and my bed is too bumpy excuses.
Mommy's boys are enjoying a real page turner.
Water and sand may not mix ... but Owen, Water and sand certainly do.
Thanks for the granola bar Mommy!
