A few nights ago, Suttie and I were laying together watching a few cartoons before bedtime.  "Mommy?  I see Baby Oh Oh?" he said handing me the iPod. 

Keegers and Suttie LOVE "their" Baby Owen.

"Sure you can!" I said as I dialed up the old Facebook.  "Just a minute, I just have to find Aunt Wheezy's pictures!"

We started out with some recent shots, and scrolled our way through all the way back to his earliest days.

The pictures of my mom holding him about did me in.  The first one, a profile shot of he snuggling him... Suttie didn't recongnize at first.  That caused the tears to start.  Then moving to the one where Mom was so proudly holding him at work.  Wow.  Those are always hard to see because I know we won't get any more of those.

I had to put down the ipod though after seeing the one of Keegers and Suttie during our first visit to see Baby Oh Oh.  Not because of the pictures, but of the comments that my mom had made on those pictures. 

She adored our babies... and wasn't afraid to share it!

I miss those little comments.  I love that we still have them, to know what she was thinking in that moment... but I hate knowing that we have every picture of her that we are going to have... and she's made every comment that she is going to make.
