The first and second picture were taken from inside the house by Mrs. Moose. Owen was outside the house with me. This was after one of our walks. Usually, when Owen is here this is the window he likes to look out of, at the birds and when his parents come to pick him up. He has looked in from the outside before but we have never taken his picture doing this.
As you can seee the screen softens his features and blurs them just a tiny bit. As I held him up to the screen his grandmother would talk to him and take the pictures. The first picture he was not quite sure what to look at but the second picture he knew exactly. I love the rosy cheeks and red nose. It epitomizes, for me, a healthy little boy loving the outdoors in winter.
The last two pictures were taken earlier this week, when he was over one evening. His dad was picking him up and the roads were slippery. Owen was starting to get a bit tired, so he just lay down on top of me in a chair. Then the little devil in him came out. He loves to put up his foot up (even at the dinner table) and have someone grab it and say" you get that foot down". Of course , it immediateley comes back up with a laugh and a twinkle in the eye. DO it again!
As we pull his foot down he laughs and laughs.
I think the final piture says it all......... I'm exhausted grandpa. Don't worry about it little one......... so is Grandpa.

Ohmigawd, until I saw that photo of where Owen was laying against Grampa, I thought that story about playing "Get that foot down" was leading into how Grampa Moose got a crippling groin injury!
Lin: He hasn't got me there yet, thank goodness.He just likes to play the teasing game where he puts his foot up and Grandpa tickles it and tells him to get it down. He laughs and laughs.
Owen is such a cutie-pie. And he has your eyes.
Phlegmy: He is a cutie isn't he. And I'm NOT prejudiced. LOL
