15 months old

This week Owen went to the doctor for his 15 month doc appointment. He weighs 23 pounds and 12 ounces which is the 40th% for his age. He is 32 1/4 inches long which falls between the 75th and 90th% for his age. He got two shots and took it like a champ. He only cried for less than one minute. Hopefully he will stay healthy over the summer and we won't have to visit the pediatrician again until he is 18 months old.

We spent a lot of time this week playing outside. I don't think he remembers playing outside much last year. It is so fun to see the world through his eyes. He wants to touch and explore everything outside. He is amazed by the flowers. I kept telling him to be gentle with the tulips, but I don't think gentle is exactly a word in his vocabuary yet. He liked them so much he wanted to squeeze them and pull off petals. When he wakes up from naps he walks straight to the back door and points to go outside.

I also let Owen finger paint for the first time this week. He liked it, but got mad at me because I wouldn't continue putting more and more paint on the paper.

We went to Deanna Rose Farm this week with some of our neighbors. Owen loved it! We saw goats, fish, cows, eagles, sheep, horses ect. I bought his some goat food to feed the goats. He was not sure about sharing the food with the goats. He preferred to throw the pieces of food through the fence. After he was out of food he saw some on the ground and was fighting a goat to see who could get the food first!
