Owen is walking (still with fingers), ALL over the place. BUT, on Saturday, he took some pretty sturdy unassisted steps between me and Joe. It was pretty cool!
O is wearing mostly 12-mo clothes, still in size 3 diapers. Joe's weigh-in puts him at around 21 lbs. We've upgraded to the full bathtub since he was trying to climb out of the ducky...he actually tries to climb out of the real tub too! Sheesh!
Little dude is wearing us out. He wants to walk everywhere; he is not content at all sitting. He gets very fussy very quick if you are doing something he does not like. His other new hobby is crawling/standing/climbing all over me (and usually fussing), which means none of us do anything too fun. It is hard to keep this guy entertained and mommy and daddy sane, so say a little prayer for that.
In other news, O has FOUR teeth! His top teeth have officially come in and the world of food has opened up as well. He is IN LOVE with grapes. He and Joe sit on the couch and have grapefest, which keeps him happy for a while. Banana bites he gets to feed himself are also a hit, and so is meat. Little dude would gobble up an order of fajitas by himself if we let him. I see our dining experiences getting a lot messier!
He is babbling and making all sorts of fun sounds and growls. O is also gesturing a lot more with his hands, which is always entertaining!
So, a recap -- O is growing, learning, entertaining and wearing us out! We love him dearly, but we are glad for a break when he goes to sleep.
I am excited to see what these next few months hold before the BIG ONE!
Remember how the bear used to be about the same size!!? What happened?
