Eggs, Owen, and the Equinox

Owen turned seven months old on Tuesday, which also happened to be the vernal equinox. Some conspiracy theorists out there have suggested that the spotty evidence of Owen standing up on his own coming out so close to the equinox is no coincidence. These doubters seem to believe that there are two things that can only stand on the equinox, eggs and Owen. Well loyal readers, I'm going to nip this urban legend in the bud. Eggs can be stood on their end on any day of the year, the myth persists because people only ever have the patience to do it on the equinox. As for Owen, the indisputable video evidence is now in, Owen can pull himself up. See for yourself. Owen-March-_20070322_170

What great film.. the suspense. And just like all kids, he waits just until he has broken momma and she gives up, "okay this is my fault for not having the camera."

And then he nails it.

Who's the man? Owen's the man. Those are some fine motor skills. He may still need some help uncapping the water bottle though.
