Snow Sleeping

Apparently my Mother and Father thought it would be a good idea to put me in the middle of a 12" snow drift whilst I was sleeping. I'm starting to come to in this picture and I'm not at all happy about it. The snow really hasn't been all that exciting. I'm not impressed. It's all in my face all the time and it seems to be very cold. Maybe next year I'll find some use for snow but this year I find it intolerable and highly over-rated!

Milk Drunk!

You can see here in this picture that I am feeling real good! Milk will do that to you. I've got quite a nice buzz going here. That's a little milk right there in the corner of my mouth. Mama always gives me the good stuff. Give it up for milk!!

I learned a new trick!!

I can sit up all by me-self! That's me in the picture testing out my classic wooden highchair that Grandpa Glenn made for me. I must say it is real nice! I, of course, like to take the toys and drop them on the floor for Papa to pick up.....over and over....and over again. What fun!!

Me as a rucksack

Here we have Mama seeing how far she can carry my 25lb bum! She's pretty buff!! Shc can carry me much longer then Papa.

Ninja's Unite!!

I'm pretty sure this little outfit is not flame retardant but I feel it's necessary for all my fans to see me in it. You may not know but I am, and have been, a part of the Mini Ninja Clan which was started in Oly ChinaTown many moons ago. I have mastered all the skills of the Mini Ninja and have begun to go by my new ninja name......Eagle Ninja which is emblazened on my belly protector.

Hungry, Hungry Rowan!

Papa had told me about this hungry, hungry hippo but I find he's not really hungry at all. He really just kinda lays there. In this photo you can see me sampling his arm. So it's really me that's the hungry, hungry......Rowan!

Arsenal loses to Liverpool in a shocker!!

My good buddy, Kevin is a die hard Arsenal fan! He insisted that I wear this fine footy outfit. I'm sure if I had anything to say about it I'd be wearing a Liverpool kit! I do look nice in burgundy though.

Max'n and Relax'n

Here I am....just chillin' on the couch. My hair never looked so good!! I must have spent 20 minutes on it today.

Regular Nap

I'm finally starting to get the hang of napping. Not always easy when your arms and legs want to move about independently like mine do. I reckin I'll have it down pat in another month or two.

Grams and Pappy come for a visit

They say that you get the most visitors right when you come into this world and I gotta say I think "they" might be right. Is that a horse on Grandpa's shirt? I think you can never have too many horses on your clothes. Most of my clothes have puppies and trucks at this stage but I'm sure one of these days I'll have horses too!

Hangin' with Auntie and Uncle

My Agent/Papa usually doesn't let me get shuffled around like this picture suggests but I gotta make money somehow. People like to get their picture taken with me....what am I gonna do? It's complex I know.

Car Seat Yo!

Normally I hate the car seat but this day was especially good to me so I decided to not cry my eyes out whilst in the damn contraption! And no, I don't use hair gel it just looks that good!

Moby is my friend

On occasion my Mama and Papa like to stick me in this orange contraption. Really it's like a giant sheet that they wrap all around them and me. As dorky as Papa looks in it is sure is comfy. I get some of my best zzz's in the Moby wrap.

Midwife Extraordinaire

Here we see my midwife at my 2nd home visit appointment. She was very caring and helped bring me gently into the world. I couldn't have done it without her! Thanks Carolee! http://www.aroundthecirclemidwifery.com/

First Bath!!

No crying for me! I'm not scared of no bath. I think Mama was more worried than I was on account of the temperature of the water.

The fine art of Chiropractic

As you can see Mama is trying to trick me with the ol' pinkie/nipple switch-a-roo whilst Dr. Anna gives me my first infant adjustment. Hooked on the Chiropractic now like a drug addict to crack. Thanks Dr. Anna! Make your appointment with Dr. Anna now!! http://timberlinechiropractic.com/index.html

Rowan gets some Uncle Chad time

Uncle Chad was lucky enough to be in town the day I was born. This picture was taken that day. I was nice enough not to cry on the old boy. Seriously with the hair.....I got more than Uncle Chad and way more than Papa.

The Legend of Rowan is Alive!!
