Just an update

So much has happened since the last entry....

Garett is now in school. Yes! The last semester!
He is taking three classes and so far likes them just fine.What is it with computers? I can't keep the Trent boys away from them.
Here Owen is "helping" Dad with some research.

Owen is talking up a storm, mainly with anything that starts with the letter "B". And he finally calls for me! I just wish he would call me mom or ma or mommy, but no, he calls me ABOO. I guess it's better than nothing.

Hey mom, I've got the keys, lets go already!

On a sad note, Garett's grandma Jane passed away yesterday morning.
She will be missed very much.

I call this "BLUE STEEL"

Here our son, Garett Owen Zoolander Trent, has decided to grow a sweet potato go-tee and strike a pose. What a goof ball!

Our Trip to Chicago

Last Thursday we headed out on an adventure to Chicago. As you may have guessed, it's a long car ride. Owen was a good sport and we made it there in 13.5 hours. We stayed with my sister Chirsty and her husband Skot (Thanks guys!), my brother Nathan lives there too. And my Mom and step-Dad were in town too, so we had a ton of fun visiting.

We are on our way to CHI-CAAGO

Friday we went to the big city and ate at the famous Uno's Pizzaria and visited the John Hancock building's 94th floor - it's a great view if the lake and city!

Mi Mi and PiPa with Owen in the big city.
I think Tim looks like a movie star in this picture. Garett and Owen enjoying the view.

This pizza place is famous for awesome pizza and we are now fans too.
It was the best pizza I have ever tasted.

Saturday was lots of fun, we watched Skot race-He did great! It was so much fun cheering him on from the side lines. Later in the day we all enjoyed some fabulous outlet mall shopping. I love a good deal and I got bunches of them!

Here is the finnish line!


Skot - Post race.


Christy and April - Post race. :)

Sunday (our last day together) we all attended church and later enjoyed a delicious BBQ.

Yummy!

My Mommy and Me and Owey too.

Lindsay and Nate (soon to be engaged)

Monday we made our way home - it took nearly 15 hours! Next time I think we will fly.


He is such a good sport.

Really - He is this cute.

I snapped a pic of Owen yesterday, and thought, gosh my kid is cute. I know I have mother's eyes and those can be deciving, but I'm pretty darn sure my kid is cute.

My Boyz

They are just so darn cute - both of them. Owen and Dad were hang'n out doing guy stuff and I just had to sneak a picture to capture the moment. As you can see, Owen has met another milestone, he can sit up on his own. I put the boppy around him because he still falls over with out trying to catch himself with his arms so this lets me not worry as much.

Happy 1st Birthday Mya!

Here is the Birthday Girl! On August 2nd, Mya turned 1!
She did a great job making sure that none of the cake made it to the floor.
Mya has brought a lot of joy and entertainment to our family. Happy Birthday!

Owen's 6 month check up

Owen had his check up this past Monday. He continues to thrive! He has slowed down in the growing department and dropped down to the 83%. Regardless, he is still a big boy. Owen is now 20.2lbs (I think he lost some weight) and 27.5". He also got some shots that made him feel terrible for the following 45 hours. But he is now back to his usual fun self.
