31 inches and 28.4 pounds (he was actually heavier than this a few weeks earlier, but he's recovering from a pretty rough ear infection and lost over a pound in a week)
Still no walking, but he has started standing on his own - especially when he's "helping" mamma water the plants. :)
He's so much fun and loves playing, laughing and "talking" to his parents. A few of the words he says pretty consistently is dog "gog" - he really emphasizes the "g" and says it whenever he sees the dogs. "caw" for claw - daddy has The Claw when he tickles him and he loves it! Bubbles is his new word (he was introduced to his new favorite past time at his birthday party) his says this word almost perfectly - "bubul" and asks for it constantly. And of course he's a pro at saying mamma and dadda. Although he primarily says mamma when he wants to be picked up. :)
Owen's favorite place to be is outside in the front or back yard. He'll lay by the door and cry if anyone goes outside and doesn't take him. We have had a few temper tantrums in the last week - been kind of hard for Eric and I not to laugh. When he doesn't get his way (usually not being picked up or being allowed to go outside) he'll bury his head in his lap and then roll onto his tummy and kick the floor all while crying. It's such an obvious attempt at trying to get sympathy, we usually just try and ignore him or start having fun very loudly in another room and he quickly stops crying and crawls to see what we're up to.
Even with the little tantrum now and then, he's still the sweetest boy I know ... who refuses to look at the camera! :-)
