Doctor, School, Misc...

Owen's two week check-up was Wednesday. He now weighs 7 lbs 15 oz which means he has gained a total of 1 lb 3 oz since he was discharged from the hospital less than two weeks ago! The doctor was very surprised to see how quickly he is gaining weight. Maybe we have a future linebacker on our hands! Owen's color is much better- so no more worries about jaundice. Funny side note- Owen peed on the doctor! :) I had to have his diaper off to have him weighed and then the doctor started examining him and got a shower in the process! The doctor had a good laugh and said "at least we know his pipes work!" Too funny!

We went to Back to School Night on Thursday at Taylor's school. We got to see the brand new school where Taylor will attend 2nd grade and meet her teacher Ms. De Long. The new school is beautiful and her teacher seems really nice. We are so glad they built a new school and that Taylor was one of the lucky kids chosen to attend school there. Her old school was built in the 1920s and was just a bit run down.

Taylor's first day of school was yesterday. She wanted to wear some of her new school clothes that Great Grandma Rose got her. She looked so pretty! I can't believe she's already going into 2nd grade. It seems like only yesterday I was taking her to her first day of kindergarten. I hate it that kids grow up so fast!! On top of that- Taylor turns 8 this weekend! Where does the time go?








Here's Taylor on the morning of the first day of 2nd grade. New dress, new shoes, new backpack. Stylin'!





This is another new outfit Taylor got from Great Grandma Rose. It is a Hannah Montana outfit. Taylor wore this on the second day of school. She is too cute!







I had to add these two photos. Jason was trying to feed Owen his first bottle. Owen wasn't taking it very well. He wouldn't eat from the bottle unless I was feeding it to him. I guess Owen is just used to me being the "milk machine" :)
