Owen has fallen in love with a doll he found at Mimi and Papa's. It started as something he only played with when he was over, but has recently taken to bringing it home....and everywhere else. This is totally fine by us, I love that he is so interested in baby and really likes playing with dolls right now (a nice break from super heroes). Baby has been to the park several times (once we met my girlfriend, who's son is in Scott's class, for a playdate...she has an actual baby, so when Owen was done with "baby" and gave her to me I looked like the crazy lady walking around with a doll trying to be like my friend with a real baby.)
Once we forgot baby at Mimi and Papa's and Owen looked at her for days until we were able to pick her up. This past week the boys and I went out to dinner for a school fundraiser at Chipotle (maybe the second time they've been to a restaurant...I'm kidding, kind of.) Baby made an appearance there as well.
Yesterday while Scott was at school all morning Owen and I played with baby nearly all day. Owen decided baby needed to go potty. We are not potty training with Owen yet (although he's super into sitting on the potty because of Scott, and tries his hardest to squeeze a few drops out, and of course when he does I make the biggest deal ever and practically do kart wheels, but no expectations yet).
After the potty it was time for a shower. We opted for a pretend shower because baby really isn't the kind that can get wet.
Then it was story time for baby. When asked what baby's favorite book was Owen responded with "tomnee the twain" (thomas the train). But of course!! Its Owen's favorite too ; )
Baby got tucked in for a nap not too long after. Looks like Owen has the bedtime routine down.
