September 2017

September has come to a close with Milton turning 6 months old and Owen completing his first full month of school for this year. We celebrated Rory's 2nd birthday at the end of the month.

Owen is enjoying school and getting to be with his "friends" for the morning.  We have even developed a bit of a play group of the moms who pick up the kids at 12:30 for all of us to go to the park for the kids to run off a bit more steam.  The weather has been wonderful for playing outside.  Some of the days we have even stayed until 3:30! Owen went to bed very easily that night. He has befriended a couple of the older boys too and we found out that one of them lives right down the street off Pooks Hill Road. There was a day off school this month and we were able to meet up at our nearby Alta Vista park. The key for these playground meetings is that each of the boys needs to have one vehicle of some sort.  These little trucks are putting on some serious mileage.

Milton is growing wonderfully and hitting right in the middle of his growth charts.  He currently weighs 17 pounds. He was not a fan of his new set of immunizations but he didn't have any trouble with that evening. We made an attempt this month for Milton to try some rice cereal mixed with formula.  He was not a fan.  In talking with the pediatrician, she recommended that we just go to the baby foods such as the puree meats or vegetables or fruit. We got some this week to give a try. He can sit up a bit if I prop him up and when resting on his tummy will stay up for a little bit, but then tips over. He is intrigued to have a different view.
