Splashy fun

We finally got Owen's little pool inflated and ready to go this weekend, so we invited his buddy Keegan over to test it out. The water was pretty cold but they were undaunted. Owen started splashing right when he got in, and the giggling started once Keegan started splashing. Everything Keegan did was hilarious to Owen and it was funny to see the two of them playing together. (Up until now, they've just sort of played in separate spaces.)



Owen was 11 months today and he's starting to communicate with us. If you ask him where Daddy is, he'll point to Colin. We think he may have said his first word aside from "Dada" and "Mama": "up." He'll say it when he wants us to pick him up or when he is looking upstairs. He's also toying with "hi" and doing this two-handed open-and-closed hand thing that could be a wave. Time will tell if that's really what he's saying and doing or if we're engaged in some wishful thinking.
