so i havent gotten a flu shot, and im starting to get worried. ive already had a pretty good dose of sickness, though im not sure what it was. lots of congestion, coughing, aches and pains, so maybe ive already had it. lots of my friends are talking about flu shots, and its making me think i should get one. owen had one and i need to take him in for his booster shot soon. BUT, i just watched a video about a girl who got a flu shot and it completely ruined her life. yes, its a one in a million thing, but still. go to youtube and type in "flu shot girl." uh, its so horrible.
its 6:45 and owen is already in bed. he took a huge nap this morning and completely skipped his afternoon nap. he'll be up early tomorrow, but thats ok. he was verrrry tired.
nathan is about to be home and wants me to go watch the UT game with him. eh, i think i may pass. 1. its a really good excuse for me to go to bed super early. and 2. maybe ill lay in bed and read, which i havent gotten to do in a long time! i have a huge book to get through, and im only on page 1o0.
well, imagine that, i dont have a single video to post. i must be slacking today. though the family did get phone videos of owen playing peek-a-boo :)

i love my life
my son is the cutest thing in the WORLD. i love him. i love the personality that he is developing and his big smile when he gets excited :) hes just too sweet! i put this video on facebook, so im sure everyone has seen it already, but here is a quick shot of owen splashing around in the tub-
im not entirely sure why owen doesnt prefer playing with his toys, but he would MUCH rather be playing with spatulas, pulling pages out of books, or going through drawers in the bathroom. this morning he threw my hair brush into the bath water that i had drawn for his bath. silly boy. hes starting to realize that he makes me laugh, so he will do things to intentially make me laugh. he's going to be the center of attention, JUST like his daddy!
owen also figured out that he can feed titus. titus' head is right at eye level with owen's high chair, which works to his advantage quite well. he knows hes not supposed to, so he'll just sneak over there when im not paying attention. heres a quick shot i got-
meanwhile, all is well in the sherman household. we only have 2 more months here in louisville, then we head to texas. ive been packing about a box a day, that way everything will be ready to move and i wont be overwhelmed the week before. we're excited, but definitely sad to leave the sweet friends we have here.
speaking of, i think ill go pack a box. ive gotta reach my quota for the day.

videos and more videos...
sorry to those of you who actually look at my blog.. im officially the worst blogger in the history of blogging. i am a tad busy with the little one, but lots of mommies blog, so its no excuse!
a lot has happened in the past few months for me, nathan, and owen. owen and i went to florida for a bit and visited with grandma, grandpa, aunt sissy, and aunt marla. it was very fun and a much needed bit of relaxation for me! owen just keeps getting cuter and cuter with age. he is on his feet much more than he is crawling these days, and take 2 or 3 steps at a time before realizing that crawling would be a much faster form of transportation. he's starting to sign "more," eating big boy food, jibber jabbering all over the place, and really starting to immitate what nathan and i do. its fun. one thing that we are struggling with- the sippy cup. first, i gave him one with a squishy top so sucking would be easier. well, he learned that if he bites down on it, stuff comes out. so now all he does is chew on it. aaaand we cant get him to actually suck. i guess itll come with time.
nathan and i have also decided that we are moving back to denton, texas in mid-december. we will ultimately end up in austin around june or july, but ill be in denton for about 6 months. we are excited to see lots of friends and to save a bit of money. it should be an easy transition and a good time.
well, here are 4 different videos that you dont have to watch! since i hadnt blogged in a while, i tried to get a bit of a variety. enjoy family! xoxo

GOOFY BOY:
FOR AUNT SISSY, LEARNING TO SIGN "MORE":
