Toddler-sized hikes

Not that we are terribly outdoorsy anyway, but a 2yo definitely can't handle much in the way of hiking.  And given that Owen must be approaching 40 lbs now, we can't handle carrying him on a hike.  Nonetheless we found a few really nice short walks, including this one where the Rogue River briefly goes through a lava tube.

 

Another reason Owen doesn't get carried too often: he has a knack for turning a bad camping-hair day into a really bad camping-hair day...

Camping

Camping in a T@b is posh!  We borrowed the Tias' camper for the long weekend.  It was an adventure for sure.

 

 

 

Owen liked camping, but the virtual parent (as Paul and I refer to the iPad guiltily) was omnipresent.

 

Oregon dromedary?!

Owen took his mommy & daddy on a 5 day Oregon vacation.  First stop: Wildlife Safari in Winston, Oregon.  He and daddy rode "Frank," the resident camel, er, dromedary.  (Grandpa insists that Owen know the difference!)

 

Haircut!

Where'd our baby boy go?!

Bagel Time

Owen and his dad go for bagels most Sunday mornings.  Does it look like he enjoys them?
