Owen six month visit

Owen had a pretty good appointment he measured 30 inches tall and 21 lbs and 2.5 oz. He got some more shots and did pretty good. He then got his first valentines day cards and presents. Overall it was a good day.

Baptism

Today our little man got baptisized!! I cant believe hes over 6 months old already. He did a great job and didnt cry at all during church. I made his cake and attempted to decorate it. We then had a small party afterwards to celebrate at our apartment. The same reverend married chris and I too.
Here are some pics:

First Tooth

Owen is getting his first tooth on the lower right and left jaw. Hes so cute. Here is a pic its hard to see but they are there pushing through

bath

Owen likes taking a bath so I decided to take some pics during and after.

Doc visit

Owen has had a cold since the end of Dec and this week he started wheezing. I took him to the doctors today and they confirmed that he was wheezing. We have to give him nebulizer treatments every 4-6 hrs for the next couple of days and then as needed until his next appt next week. Poor little man :( He doesn't act sick he still smiles and wants to jump on you lol. they always weigh him and today he was just over 20 lbs.

Tooth

We can see a tooth!!! Our little man has a tooth coming in on the bottom right front. I can't believe how fast he is growing up!!

Food

Today Owen had his first real food. We were eating dinner at Chris's dads house and gave Owen some mashed potatoes, orange squash, and cinnamon applesauce. He loved it and cried when there wasnt anymore. So I went to the store to get some real baby food for him.

Happy New Year!

We rang in 2011 in a fantastic way...we slept lol. Owen got to meet my cousin and her family this weekend. My cousin has two children Lucas and Maria. Lucas is almost 3 and Maria is about 9 months old. Owen and Maria are about the same size but Maria is much more mobile. We all had fun visiting. My aunt and other cousin along with my mom and my sister and her husband all met at my Grandmas house. At one point we joined in on "ball in the hall" and then we put up a gate to keep the kids in the living room and Maria and Owen were trying to escape. My cousin also entertained us with her bubble blowing skills. It was a lot of fun and we are looking forward to our next visit.

cereal

We gave Owen cereal with a spoon for the first time. He's not quite ready yet because he still has a tongue thrust. So we will try again soon.

Baby's First Christmas

Owen enjoyed his first Christmas! It lasted all weekend and he had fun opening gifts. My grandparents came over in the morning to give him his gift of a police car and firetruck. He received lots of clothes ( which is good because he wears 9-12 m), a rocking horse, a Leapfrog My Pals Scout, a tractor with his birth info and a jumper. We cheated and let him have his jumper from us before Christmas, he loves to bounce!

getting ready for xmas

We were trying to take some Christmas pictures. These are some of what we got:

4 Months old doc visit

Today Owen had his doctor visit and got some more shots. He did pretty good. He only cried a little bit and then slept on and off all day. He weighed in at 18 lbs 8 oz and 27 1/2 inches. He's a growing boy!

4 Months old

Owen has begun to do a lot of new things on Dec 4 he rolled over from his back to his front. But since then no luck of seeing him do it again. He has also discovered his feet and that he has ears. He pulls on his ears and tries to get his feet a lot now. Here are two pictures.

Thanksgiving

Owens first Thanksgiving was pretty good. He did okay for the most part. We had breakfast at Chris's moms, lunch at Chris's dads. Then Chris had to go to work and Owen and I went to my moms house for dinner. I was on call but thank goodness I didnt get called in. Then we went to Chris's family thanksgiving at a local church here are pics of the cousins and our recent babies.
