Daily Owen & Bennett: 9.11.2014

Today was a better day than yesterday, though we are a bit tired. 

4am poop face, literally:

And a couple short hours later, big bro was up and wanted to be the "baby."

We played around this morning and then Justin came to pick us up to go to Owen's first swimming lesson (well, since he was one!) It was so cute- he absolutely loved it! He smiled the whole time and just had a blast...he even tried to jump off the ledge and "swim" himself, which of course involved a save from Miss Connie. 

Soon enough Bennett will be joining in on the fun! But for now, just sleeping. 

We ran to get the Audi from the shop (dumb shattered windshield!) and then went home for O's naptime. While O napped, so did B:

And then, Justin picked him up and we realized he also had pooped. In a major way. IE: dripping on the deck, through his/my clothes. Hilarious!!

In other news, and probably another post but I'm too lazy to make it one, we got Owen's new swing set today (his birthday gift from grandma and grandpa baker). Owen was excited because a big truck delivered it. However, the truck couldn't make it up our drive so we had to use Justin's truck to get the boxes up. Minor problem: the truck wouldn't start. Problem #2: we couldn't find the battery in the Audi. I remembered the battery in the BMW was in the trunk, so we were able to jump it from that. After that chaos, Owen got to see the big truck and we got the boxes up. Now the fun of assembly begins!

And in remembrance of 9.11.2001.... I woke up that morning as a sophomore in college and looked at my computer. I told my college roommate some idiot had run in to a building in NYC. I walked to class and saw the first tower collapse. I will never forget those moments or that day. Thoughts for all those who died, or who continue to mourn the loss of loved ones who suffered as a result of the events of that day.
