Pictureless Update

Today was Owen's 12-month check-up. We switched Pediatricians because our last one was leaving the mega-practice to start his own practice in SE Portland (not close). So let me tell you how happy I was to hear from our new Pediatrician that he is leaving this other practice to start his own practice. However, his is close by. So now we have to decide if we want to switch again or stay with the new guy (without the handy-dandy on-call doctors, advice nurse lines, etc).

Owen is 30.5 inches long (still tall) (and note: I measured him 2 weeks ago and he was about 29 inches!), 21 pounds, 6 ounces (skinny), and his head is still big but hasn't grown any since the whole giant-head-ultrasound debacle.

He had only 2 of his 5 shots today. We're choosing to spread the rest out over the next few months. But they were 2 painful ones and Owen screamed. He fell asleep on the way home and is in bed now. He also has a cold.

Between sicknesses and shots, this kid can't catch a break lately!
