Big boy!

Today Owen had his 6 week check up at the pediatrician's office, and he's gained 2 kilos since his birth!  He weighed in at 5.4 kilos / nearly 12 lbs, putting him at the 75th percentile for his age.  I guess we're not imagining it, he really does eat a lot.  No wonder he already needs the 3 month clothes.  He also had his first immunization... in liquid drops given orally, phew.  And, this week, Dad gave Owen his first bottle, and it was a success.  Mom realized she has plenty of extra milk and decided to try saving some in the freezer, and to our relief, Owen took the bottle from Dad without much fuss at all.  Perhaps we'll make it a 2-3x weekly event, Dad had so much fun doing it.  Little O is also getting more expressive, meeting our gazes for long periods and smiling seemingly on purpose.  It makes Mom feel a little nervous when she's doing dishes and looks over to see Owen staring at her, like she should be doing and saying more interesting things to him already....!

Owen doesn't quite get the point of tummy time.  He just tries to eat his wallaboo.

Trying out the Boppy.

Owen stares at the curtains during (our) breakfast time.  Good thing I changed them before he came, he stares at them a lot.

Sleeping while Dad takes a shower.  Mom usually sings to him during hers, he likes the acoustics and it makes her sound better.  Clearly he's not into the toy bar quite yet.

Our little cuddler.

Looking his new weight.  And enjoying the Bobby a little more!

Realized I never posted photos of his room... here's where we're trying to get him to sleep at night.

 He loves his giraffe picture.  It's what he stares at from the changing table.
