8 months old - May 9, 2014

Owen is going to be 8 Months old tomorrow!! He is still gaining weight at a good rate, he really wants to catch up to his growth chart. He is 13lbs 7oz! He is almost on the growth chart for his adjusted age (4.5 months). We started solid foods over a week ago and he has really enjoyed it! It took his tummy a little time to get used to it but is handling it much better now. He has also learned to appreciate his glasses and we can tell that he can see a lot better.

Two weeks ago at his high risk appointment the doctor only had one concern, which was the back of his head is pretty flat. We are hoping keeping him upright as much as possibly can correct this, if not he will need to go see an ENT doctor about correcting it with a helmet.

We don't have many doctor appointments this month!! We are participating in the Children's Miracle network telethon on May 31st on KCBD. We interviews and photoshoots for that this week.
