On Monday I took Owen in for his one month appointment. That was the day that they estimated that it rained around 8 inches in that one day alone with the flooding that happened out here! I dreaded having to go out and the thought of rescheduling did cross my mind, especially since Isaac was out of town and I had to take both kids out in the nasty weather. But I made up my mind that we would go anyways.
Owen is a VERY healthy 1 month old. These were his stats...
Weight:12 lbs 95th percentile
Height: 22 in. 75th percentile
Head: 38 cm. 50th percentile
What kills me is that when I went home from his check-up, I looked up Dylan's measurements from when he was one month and little Owen who weighed less than a lb. in difference to Dylan's weight at birth, now weighed more than Dylan when he was one month. Pretty crazy!
I am going to borrow this idea that Kara did with my niece Madeleine to help document Owen's growth through his first year. Here is Owen with his teddy at one month.
Here are some more random pictures that I have taken recently of Owen.
Owen fell asleep with his leg sticking up in the air!
Dylan wanted to be in the picture too! He has been my big helper lately. Here are some examples:
- If he finds a pacifier, he will hand it to me.
- When I was giving Owen his bath tonight he was putting all of his bath toys in the baby tub for Owen to play with.
- He will sometimes pat Owen on the back while I am burping him.
I put Owen in his play gym the other day, and he seemed to enjoy looking at the animals. What a cute little guy!
I think this has to be the funniest expression that I have caught of him on camera. It makes me laugh looking at it.
There are more posts that I am working on for today so keep scrolling down.
