Stick Baby

Owen has his well-child check up today. He is still our tiny little guy, weighing in at 19 lbs at 16 months old!! He is finally back on the charts coming in at the 3rd percentile. His head is still sitting pretty at 75% and has been since birth. He is not lacking in brains, that's for sure! His heart murmur is no longer present, which is great news! AND he only screamed for like 30 seconds after he got his shots. My tough guy.

Owen is still such a sweet little baby and loves to wander around the house singing to himself. The kids take great care of him and are very protective of their baby brother. He literally is the sweetest, most easy going kid!! Here's our Owen:

What a sweet post. He is so little. That is cute, he is trying to be a baby for you as long as possible by staying small. My kids are always hanging out at the 95th percentile. They do not stay small long. My 5 month old was almost 15 pounds at four months!!

19 lbs...what a tiny little nugget.
Harry weighs 13lbs, and he is 5 weeks!

p.s. No running shoes yet, I decided that new shoes will be my reward when I can run 3 miles...with out stopping. It might be a few more weeks, seeing as I am still working on 10 minutes.

Oh that poor little guy, I'm sure he will bulk up in no time. At least you can still carry him around, without getting a major backache.
I took Traeke in for his 2 week and he is over 10 lbs. I don't know why I am cursed with all the big babies. Boeden has got to be like 37 lbs and he isn't even two years old. I guess every kid is different. He sure is a cute little guy!

Ummm... Jenni? You never told me Owen had a heart murmur! I am so glad he is doing well.

Wow.. he is smaller then even my kids on weight! I didn't think that was possible, hhahaha. Tyler was 16 1/2 months at 20 1/2 pounds. Easier to carry around though, huh?

Love ya
