Owen 6 months

This morning I took Owen in for his 6 month check up. Plus he had been feeling really icky for the past week, and I had some suppisions of Swine Flu with him but this morning he checked out great. I am happy to report that his fever has been gone since yesterday and I think there is a ray of hope that the Owen I know and absolutley love is coming back.


Here are his statics from this morning:
Weight : 17 lbs. 6.5 oz. {50%}
Height : 27" {75%}
Head : 45 cm {85%}

He has started solid foods and just loves them. He loves eating with the other boys at the dinner table. It makes him feel important.
He was even happy for the doctor until she started using her cold stethascope that was pretty cold and then it didn't go so well from there on out. But we he is growing and we love him so much.
The doctor told me that she saw some red areas in his left ear and if a fever comes back then we will start him on some antibiotics and if the fever is still present 3-4days afterwards then we are going to have to do some blood work. There may be an underlining bacterial infection but so far we are good. We will keep our fingers crossed that he is on the mend.
