Caleb turned THREE! I can't believe he's 3 years old already. It's going by sooo fast! We had a nice day at home the day of his birthday. We got him a sandbox and he spent a good amount of the day outside playing in it. Then on the 20th, he had a wonderful robot-themed birthday party at Mawmaw & Pawpaw's house with all of his cousins and Aunts & Uncles. He had a blast! (PS- Clayton made that amazing robot cake. Imressed? Me too!)

Owen turned 2 months old. He is smiling a TON. He's such a happy little guy, I just adore him.
I also some pics of the boys today. I set up my backdrops and lights and we had a little mini photo session. Caleb was such a ham... and Owen, well he was not really in the mood so I didn't get many pics of him. lol

Both boys went for wellness check ups at the doctor (Caleb's 3 year, and Owen's 2 month). Caleb was 39.8 lbs and I think 3'3" - in the 95th percentile for height and weight. He had to get one shot but the doctor said he's doing awesome!
Owen was 14lbs 7 oz (95th percentile for weight) and 22" long (10th percentile for height). Dr. Ramesh called him a "shorty" and said he mostly likely got my genes for height. Poor kid. She also said we need to keep an eye on his belly button. She said it sticks out like it does because it's a hernia and as long as we can push it back in easily, it's fine. She said 98% of babies get it and it usually goes away on it's own (Caleb had it too and his went away - but they never told me any of this). But if if doesn't go away, a small percentage of babies need surgery on it. That worried me a little bit but she said she really wouldn't lose any sleep over it. (And by the time I'm updating this, it's already starting to back in. Yesterday I noticed it looks a ton better)
Another thing with Owen is that he favors laying his head to one side over the other and it's causing a flat spot on that side (he's done that since he was born and I noticed it but never thought much of it). She said to try to do tummy time as much as possible (pretty much any time he's awake), but she also showed me some neck exercises I need to do with him two to three times a day to stretch his neck out and strengthen it so he can turn it to the other side more easily. She said if I do all that and it's not any better by his 4 month appointment, than he may need to go to physical therapy for it. :/ Poor little guy. He also had to get 2 shots today. :(
