Owen's 15 month appointment...a little late!

Healthcare in Las Vegas isnt consumer friendly. I know there are good doctors here but they dont have the same hospitality as what we are used to. No late hours, urgent cares are few and far between, you wait FOREVER to see the dr, the office staff isnt super friendly, its just very different. Ive been trying to keep most of the kids specialists appointments back in KY and make them when are in town visiting. Its been working so far. But we needed to get Owen in for his 15 month check up. We tried a new doctor and he was great but we were there for 2 hours. Jeremy had to leave work to get Hannah from school because I wasnt even out of there in time. Thats just wrong!

 Anyways, Owen looked great. At a tiny 25 pounds (I say tiny cause he seems so little to us compared to how big Hannah was) and 32.5 inches. He fell right into the 75-90th percentile categories and was doing all that he should be. He wears anywhere between 18-24 month clothes. Size 5 diapers. Is completely done with having us feed him. This morning we battled over the spoon and he won. He fed himself greek yogurt, Im sure you can imagine how that ended. He isnt too interested in the high chair anymore. He copies everything Hannah does. Its the sweetest thing Ive ever seen. He sleeps from about 7:30 to between 6:30-7:15. Usually its about 6:45 but thats ok, he's napping well too. He's gotten a little pickier but will still eat so much when he is hungry. He babbles all day long, dances to any song that comes on, and is saying several words. He barks like a dog and moo's like a cow. He knows right where is head is and is happy playing with a set of keys. This kid makes my heart melt more every single day. Most mornings I put him in bed with me before I get ready for the day and he just lays his head on me doesnt want me to get up. How can you say no to that?

 He is so happy and healthy, that is all that matters to us!



 This is new....Who needs a fork when you have feet?!


 funny boy!




I cant believe he is almost a year and a half...where has this time gone? I am SO thankful for the days I am getting to spend at home with him. He brings me so much joy. He is my shopping partner when Hannah is at school, the sweetest, most loving little boy and Hannah's best friend. She calls him "little bud" it makes me so thankful she has him.
