Our Baby

We won't have a baby for too much longer. Owen is getting to be so big and growing so fasting and changing so much. He has transitioned from baby food to table food in less than a week. He has always been a big eater and continues to be so with table food now. Last night for dinner he had grilled chicken, stewed squash, broiled okra and scalloped potatoes. He, of course, ate more than Cole - although Cole did eat. He, in the last few days, has began standing up by himself not using anything. Cole didn't do this until after he started walking, after he turned one. Owen does it all the time and even tried to take a baby step last night. I took Owen to the doctor last Wednesday fearing that he had yet another ear infection. Fortunately, no ear infection but a form of pink eye. Dr. T prescribed some nasal drops to clear up the pouring nose and told me to use the eye drops I already had. It helped but I noticed today Owen felt warm and his eye had started back running. He weighed a whopping 21 pounds 5 ounces. He is closing in on Cole quickly. Below is a photo after his bath last night which he loves. We have to do it quickly, or else, he will splash all the water out of the tub on to me. He is such a fun baby!
