Owen has turned into such a little man the past few months. It has been so cute to see him following Mark around the house and yard doing whatever he is doing. I recently got Owen a bubble lawn mower. As a child I LOVED my Fisher Price bubble mower, and was quite upset when it was given away. (Something I still remind my poor Mom of often. ha)
I just knew Owen HAD to have a bubble mower as well. I searched all over for a mower, and to no avail. It seemed that this year the bubble leaf blower had taken the mowers place. I was highly disappointed. However, last week while at Wal-Mart (eww...not my favorite place, but had something that needed to be purchased there) I found an off-brand bubble mower! I was so excited when from out of no where came an eccentric Wal-Mart employee who informed me that I MUST spend $5 more to get the Fisher Price mower that was hidden in the back of the store. So...there you have it! Owen got his very first Fisher Price bubble mower. Thanks to Mr. Wal-Mart. :)
Needless to say, this mower is a hit. After playing with it for a short time the evening we got it, it was time for bed. The next morning before he even climbed out of bed he was asking to go mow. Now, if only we can keep this enthusiasm for mowing as he gets older and takes over mowing the yard for Daddy. ;)
"I have to turn off my mower Mommy."
He is actually quite scary with the hammer!
Mark.....the lumberjack!
Mark and I had tossed around the idea of removing a large evergreen tree that is in the backyard. It was taking up a large piece of the shaded part in our yard, and we wanted to make a play space for Owen that was shaded. (Poor boy got Mommy's pale skin that burns easily) For some reason Sunday morning Mark got the itch to take it down and before we knew it we were watching him remove the giant tree. Posted below are a few picture of the tree removal process. I will add more of the finished play space soon. :)
