12 months

Our tiny boy hit his 12 month mark on May 14. He is growing slowly, but healthy none the less. We went in to see the urologist in April, and found out that his bad kidney is gone. They couldn't see it in the ultrasound. So we have been released from the care of the urologist, and don't have to see him again. Hooray!!!

1 year stats: 16 pounds 8 ounces, and 28 inches tall. He is finally on the growth chart for his height at right around the 5th percentile. The pediatrician isn't worried about him, and is happy that he's following the curve and growing how a tiny boy should. One day he'll catch up.

- loves to eat anything he can get his hands on, his favorites right now are pirates booty, black beans, and hot dogs

- has 3 teeth, two on the bottom and 1 on the top.

-can kneel on his knees when playing

-loves to look at books

-enjoys playing on mommy and daddys ipads

- loves his grandpa James, and always wants to see him if he is in the room

-Another new thing is Owen is sleeping on the floor. He started hating his crib and wasn't sleeping at night, so we put him on the floor to see if we could catch a break. He's doing better but still wakes up quite a few times each night.

He would not sit still for his photos and was climbing all over the chair and making himself rock. Here he is our little monkey!

Thanks to our friend Lindsay for the adorable shirt!
