Oh, Fun!

Chan & Rowan showing some brotherly love :)


"Oh, fun!" This is the phrase often used by Chandler when we are doing or going to do something he is really excited about. Yesterday, Sara & I made plans to take the boys down to Blast Off to let them burn off some energy. I told Chandler before his nap that if he went down like a good boy he could play with Carson. He giggled and said, "Oh fun!" So he went down fairly easy, which was nice. We went down that afternoon and it was nice to visit with Sara while the boys ran wild & Rowan slept the whole time. After 2 hours of playing we went over to Wendy's where the boys devoured their meals and both managed to spill most of their chocolate milk. Needless to say, Chandler went to bed early last night and slept great!

It's hard to see but they are holding hands in this picture...must be BFF! I'm sure Chan will appreciate this when he's older ;)

Today we went in for Rowan's 2 month well baby visit. He's doing really well - weighed in at 13 lbs 1 oz & was 24 1/2 inches long. Crazy to think he's grown 4 inches and gained 4 lbs in just two months. He's 80% for weight and 96% for height. Looking back on Chandler's 2 month visit, they are almost exactly the same size. Chan was 13 lbs 3 oz & 24 1/4 inches. Rowan's bellybutton is STILL goopy but there is no sign of infection and it is just taking it's own sweet time drying up. He also had 4 shots, one of which was given orally. I didn't realize they had a vaccine that could be given that way which I thought was cool. He screamed after the injections but calmed down fairly fast and has been sleeping ever since.
Chandler has had a little bump on his hip by his bum and it has gotten bigger over the past few weeks. It has also spread a little and he had 3 tiny other ones. Chandler has discovered it and everytime I change his diaper he reaches down and tries to scratch at it. Then he looks at me and says, "What happen?" Marsh and I just have to laugh it off and say, "I don't know what happened bud." Pretty funny, but honestly, how do you answer that question? It almost looks like a wart, but I figured I'd have the dr. look at it today when we took Rowan in. He said it's a form of viral warts which is really common in little kids. It's just weird where he has it at. I guess it's supposed to go away on it's own and if it hasn't in a year, we will see a dermatologist. A year seems like a long time to me, but whatever...

You are so lucky he went down easy last night. Carson was asleep when we got home and I had to lug him up stairs, then 45 minutes later he woke up screaming and didn't stop until 10:30 last night! Glad to know you figured out what was on Chandlers hip.

Sounds like he had a lot of fun. Chandler has an endless amount of energy so it must have been nice to have him work some of that off.

I wish we had a place like Blast off here; that would be so nice.

Glad he got to go to blast off and work out some of his energy. I bet he enjoyed that!

That picture of Rowan and Chandler is way, way cute! I love it when kids have played so hard that they just drop off and go to sleep!
