Oden Takes a Spill at the Pond

Oden was playing chase with a pretty little girl at the pond, and got a little excited while running around. He took a spill on the hard rock path and scraped his knee up pretty good.



Daddy brought him home and Nurse Mommy was able to make him feel better. We had to talk Oden into a bandage, as he doesn't like them for some reason.

Oden was a big boy though and wore his bandage and went to bed without a fight - he was all wore out!

Oden's Continueing Big Boy Adventures

Oden is getting to be such a Big Boy, and he is recording multiple 'firsts' almost every day.

Just this weekend, we outfitted his play fishing pole with a real hook, sinker and bobber, and he caught his first fish all by himself at the bridge on Tuscarora Creek. Daddy and Oden decided to go fishing, and both daddy and Oden caught 3 little sunfish each. It was lots of fun, and we practiced the 'catch and release' strategy, although Oden was very excited to some day catch a fish that could "feed the whole family".


Here is Oden reeling in his first fish!

It was pretty tiny, so we threw it back.....
But Oden had lots of fun, and caught a total of 3 fish for the day... a good haul for a rookie.

Just today, while picnicking with momma at the gazebo, Oden climbed a tree all by himself. He had no help from momma, and was very excited when he climbed into the tree all by himself proclaiming "Look, Momma! I a Big Boy!" It is too bad Daddy was at work, but he looks forward to observing Oden's bigboyclimbingskills soon.

Oden and the RFF (really fast fish)

Oden loves to feed the fish at the pond with the worms he finds under the sandbox.

When the fish eat the worms, do you see them?

Oden's Birthday Bike

Oden got a new Spiderman big-boy bike for his birthday. He loves it, and is tearing up the neighborhood on it.

The Multiple Personalities of Shai

This first video demonstrates what not to do when being attacked by a Ninja. You can see that if I had been a real Ninja, Shai wouldn't have lasted long....



However, at times, Shai can be very chatty and vocal.... and I kind of think that this would have been a much better response to a Ninja attack.



What do you think?

Oden Turns 3 (three) !

Oden Allen Keovisat turned 3 yrs old this July 4th! Can you believe it?!? We had a wonderful day with all 3 grandma's. We started out with the traditional dad/son breakfast out (Oden had Alien Pancakes, again). Then we went to Crumbland Farms where Oden got to Moonbounce and go for a pony ride. We had yummy homemade egg rolls for lunch, and then celebrated with cake and ice cream!

Oden got lots of presents (seen in the pics), including books and Geo Trax. Later on, he got a big boy bike! Oden went for a spin around the block, and he loves his new bike.

Such a beautiful family photo!
