May 2017

May has been another fun month.  We made our first day trip with Milton to Manassas National Battlefield.  Milton will become a lover of National Parks just like his mother :) For Memorial Day and my birthday we spent the weekend at Ocean City.  The water was a bit chilly, but Owen loved being back in the sand.  We spent one of the days at the water park too which Owen loved.  I am starting to feel better and with the weather getting warmer it is was good all around.

With the receipt of Milton's Social Security card and his Maryland birth certificate, he is completely legal. The next step is to get his passport, but with only the birth certificate he is ready to go for our flight out to Wyoming this summer. My favorite accomplishment for Milton this month is him starting to smile.  Although, I think more enjoyable is his waning colic episodes.  We had his two month checkup and he is weighing in in the 80th percentile and then in height he is in the upper 70s. I can barely keep up with getting him in clothes that fit properly.  We are already into the 3-6 month clothing.

Owen's daycare had an International Day where his class represented Morocco.  Both of his teachers are from Morocco.  There was also a part where the parents brought food from their native country. We brought Manchego cheese and olives to represent Spain.  That is Owen's native country! After I pick up Owen at 12:30 p.m. we go to the park right next to his school where he loves to climb on a rock mound thing and also run around the merry-go-round.  He loves the seesaw too.
