I spent a few hours on Wednesday talking with Owen's GI nurse, which followed with a call from his GI doctor personally. The puking has been out of control and it wasn't getting better. We agreed to take him back to Good Start formula at 24 calories and see how he does. I told GI that as soon as he puked again, I would make the switch. Here's the kicker... he totally stopped puking and hasn't puked since!!! I didn't do a darn thing. After months and months of puking 3-6 times a day, he just stopped out of the blue. I'm just hoping the pukies are gone for good. Another answered prayer perhaps?
Owen will be two in a few weeks and our baby is now a toddler. He is full of personality and knows exactly what he wants. He's full of personality, so easygoing and remains happy 95% of the time.
The other 5% is when he wants what he can't have. "No Owen, you cannot eat toilet paper.. throw toys at people...rip the pages of that book...play with Kamryn's DSI...pinch Mommy... change your own diaper... get out of bed at 3am...throw things out the window of the car while Mommy is driving...and you probably shouldn't prank call everyone on Mommy's cell phone contact list."
Owen is very much a Mommy's boy who likes to be held and demand my attention ALL the time. While I LOVE to shower this little man with attention and snuggle him constantly, sometimes it's just not easy to cook dinner and hold a 27lb squiggly toddler on my hip. Then he makes me feel guilty....until I remind myself that he's totally faking it because Kamryn will walk in the room and he can't help but start laughing uncontrollably.
Our favorite face, as of lately, is the pouty face. He can only hold the face for about 2 seconds before he starts to smile, but we love it!! 
It's true that our baby boy isn't a baby anymore. He knows what he wants and he knows how to get it!!

Josh plays me like a fiddle too. He knows exactly how to get what he wants & 9 times out of 10 it works! These boys!
I love the catalog of pictures. IT is funny to see his different dispositions. Glad the pukies are gone!
Just don't take us Grammas off speed dial...we LOVE the prank calls.
Holy Cow! I can tell I haven't gotten on here for awhile because of how grown up Owen looks! Seriously! He isn't a baby anymore and he is so stinkin' adorable. What a handsome little dude. And I love all those faces. Too cute!
