Owen - 17 months

I am a terrible mother - as usual- and haven't been keeping up with updates, so here is the latest on Owen.  He is into everything and is still a monkey.  He is busy as ever and wants to be outside all the time.  The warm weather has been great.  He loves to use sidewalk chalk and write on on our driveway and he got a baseball glove from the Easter bunny so that he can play with Daddy and Gavin since Tee ball has started.  We were going to practices with them, but Owen was not happy that he could not go on the field with them so we now stay at home. 
After an relatively uneventful winter as far as illnesses go, within the last 2 months, poor Owen has had a Staph infection that showed itself through eczema and a horrible rash on his legs and then just over Easter had a fevers of 103 because of an ear infection.  Hopefully this will be the last for a while!
At his 15 month checkup, he was 23 pounds (26 percentile) and 33 inches (92 percentile). The doctor says that my kids continue to be long and lean, which I am more than grateful for!!

Thanks to Minnie Mouse, Owen still hates anything that in costume!  He loved waving to the Easter bunny, but wanted no parts of going near it!

Waiting patiently for the egg hunt to start!  Poor guy was so sick!!

Even sick, he did enjoy finding eggs and putting them in his basket.

Just last Sunday, Owen finally ate his entire bowl of Cheerios by himself.  He is giving his thumbs up sign here to show how proud he is of himself.
