Oti's Update


Otis is as sweet and calm and peaceful as ever.  He rolls over from back to belly and few times (yesterday) from belly to back.  I really hate to see him grow up.  I want him to stay little.  He is cuddly and squishy.  I love to cuddle with him after a nap or after nursing.  I love his baby smell and I wish I could just hold him under my nose all day.... I love him!

I took him for his baby well check visit on Monday and he is growing just prefectly.

Weight:  14.5 lbs  (50%)
Height:   25 1/4in (75%)  who knew?!?!?
Head:     17 1/4in (75%)

Dr. Coombs said he wanted to keep him (He also said that about my other kids.  I am sure that is just what he says to all of the babies).  He asked Mylo if he could take him home and Mylo said No! Dr. Coombs told Otis he looked a lot like Mylo.  Then mentioned their big eyes an their dark hair.  Then he looked at Milli and said "are you adopted?" giggle giggle.  I thought it was funny, but I quickly assured him that she is ALL mine!  He also said Otis is doing great and to keep doing what I am doing.  Easy enough! 

Otis loooooove to talk to us and laughs all the time.  He is on a great schedule but has been wanting to eat at night.  I will blame it on my dt. coke drinking habits and I am not sure if I want to give that up or have a good night sleep.  For now I take every chance I get to feed him and to baby him. 

Otis is a dream to have around.  SO thankful to have him in our family!

Looks and sounds like he's just perfect man.
Awesome news.
Good luck with the decision about coke or sleep.
It'd be easy for me, but I hate coke ;)

He is sooo cute. I think he looks like Mylo too. If I only lived closer I would beg you to let me babysit.

He is ADORABLE. I love the comment about Milli being adopted... sounds like your doctor is a great man.

Glad he's healthy and happy. What more could you ask for, right?

I love to see him laugh, he is such a happy baby. From one who tried to get every minute in with #4, the last...keep it all in perspective, you might regret it when they still want to see mommy during the night when they are 3!
