Good ole State Fair and Owen's 1st Bday Party

Friday night was adult time at the good ole state fair. it was nice that Scott and I got out and was able to spend some time with our friends. Was super excited to see Whitney! I heard she was in the wine tent. went down to try to find her but she had left. grabbed a glass of wine. keep in mind, i never drink. hummmm, one glass of wine was pretty good. glad i didn't see whitney in the tent b/c otherwise i would have sat down and had a few more and then would have been knocked on my butt! anyway, ran into whit at the bud tent....along with other friends. it was great to catch up.
Saturday we took the kids out to see the animals. Then it was on to the rides. It was Ryan's first year to actually get to ride them. He was pretty excited. We only let him ride 4. I know next year we will be riding alot more!!!















Then it was on to Saturday evening....Owen's birthday party. He was stylin in his plaid shorts although he blue shirt was too big so we had to just wear a white onesie. Mommy wasn't that prepared. Had a bbq with both grandparents and aunt/uncles.




Owen was so ready to go for his cake!














"Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Owen. Happy birthday to you!"




Yep, he loved the whipped icing!!!








Then it was on to opening gifts. Ryan got a little too involved. Had to tell him to let Owen tear the packages open but Owen would never come near the gifts. He just walked around with one of his first gifts....a little bat. So Ryan got to open all the gifts.













And then came Sunday. Ryan was so ready to come home. I am so tired of all the whining this three year old does. In his defense, it was a long 5 days....daycare wed/thurs then home to grandparents fri/sat/sun. no naps and a ton of stuff going on. And you never sleep as well when you are not in your own bed. Ryan wanted to head home sunday morning so we packed up and came back up to the city. Once we got here, Owen wanted to go outside and play. Did i mention that he took his first steps last saturday but really started walking the day after his birthday. He walks everywhere now! He wanted to go outside so we went out to play in his little house. A ball was in the grass. He knows how to turn around and go down steps backwards. There is one small step from our patio to the grass. He started walking over to it and I could tell he was just going to try to walk off. I didn't want to say anything b/c i wanted him to learn that if you don't turn around, you will fall down. Sure enough he fell off the step and into some mud. It was kinda funny. We all saw it happen then saw Owen's face. Told scottie he had to get a picture of this!!! Too funny!!
