At home with my Owen

My little Owen is now 2 months old. He is getting so big, now at 5lb 4oz. I know that seems small to some people but he was only 3lb 2oz at birth. Here are a few things about him.

  • He is getting little chubby cheeks and starting to fill out his preemie outfits. He has even outgrown 2 of his jammies. 
  • He is really strong too. We do his exercises everyday. He can lift his head off the ground for 3 sec and he can grab my hands and pull his body up. 
  • He sleeps a lot and eats every three hours. When he eats he puts his hand on his head like he is thinking. He gets 2 extra calorie bottles a day and loves daddy to feed him. 
 

  • He is almost at his due date. Next week he will be 40 weeks on Wednesday. 
  • We haven't gone many places yet. We avoid places with kids, and crowds. He had his first walk on the river trail, he loved it. He fell asleep pretty quickly. 

  •  He has learned how to suck his thumb and sometimes snores when he sleeps.
  • He likes to be up at night most of the time, and when he sleeps he likes to sleep next to his mamma.
  • He still has frequent doctor appointments. Two next week.   
  • His hair is red and it is fuzzy like his uncle Rileys


We love him so much. We are so happy that he is finally home. We pray everyday for him and are glad that he is growing and getting so strong.

Trini, he is such a beautiful boy! I LOVE the red hair and wished that Bridger had red..maybe the next one! I think you are the most amazing person for everything you've been through - thanks for the post, it made my day.
