Guaranteed Tears from Mommy

Today Owen found his old snowsuit from when he was a baby.....and tried, with every fiber of his being, to put it on.  My boy is growing up...and is so big.

When the snowsuit was too big for him

Shaved Beard

So I had a beard for over a year and a half straight & every winter that Owen was alive.  At the time he was 3.5 so he would've only been 2 the last time he saw me sans beard.  The video below is Owen running down the stairs to say hi to me after his nap except he sees me without the beard.  It took him about 30 minutes to warm up to me again.  And every day since then he has asked for me to grow it back.  I'm about 2 weeks into growing my beard again.

Turning the Corner

We finally turned the corner with Ozzy being a difficult baby.....we think.  Now he has been taking the bottle really well, cries so much less, and plays by himself on the mat or in his swing very well.  He is such a chill boy now and it is such a difference from the first couple of months.  I used to be terrified of being home alone with him because if he was hungry he wouldn't take a bottle from me so he would cry (no exaggeration) for hours until Em got home to feed him the way he demanded.  All that is behind us.....hopefully.  (Although I think I'm still struggling with a mild form of PTSD from my trauma.  Here is a few pics of the new, chill Ozzy (with the exception of the first pic:

This is the look he gave us before the waterworks started
