Poor Baby Check up -

So Orion had a check up today - He is growing great and everything looks good. He is the 25th percentile for everything except his weight (he is a pretty small guy). For some reason he is only in the 10th percentile for his weight- I don't get it either he eats SO much and he is not picky at all. He loves all kinds of food but I think the problem might be that his favorite foods are really really healthy and low fat. His favorite soup is miso soup - he absolutely loves green beans and broccoli and tomato's - he likes chicken tacos lol according to the Dr I should try more ice cream, cookies, and peanut butter (the problem with that is I eat it too when we get it for him ha).

Anyway - He did have to get a few shots and that seriously breaks my heart everytime. I think I have a PTSD from all the poking they did to him earlier in his life - and then I worry that if I feel that way he must have a little memory of all that. So after all that he got a sucker and we came home and rested, cuddled up on the couch and watched his favorite show - luckily his appointment was pretty late in the day so he was able to got to sleep pretty soon after we got home. What a sweety.

Fun Fun...

I was working on our wains coating the other day, and orion was just hangin out playin around, and I turned around to find this cute face...




Now he has done this before, and I dont know why it was particularly funny today but I really laughed hard, I thought it was pretty cute, I think it was because he knew he was being funny and did it just to make me laugh. What a sweet heart. Things have been really busy for all of us lately, steve has been busy with homework, and I have started planning for my residency in June (ahh!) and Dustin just started Directing instead of Technical Directing Powerhouse (9:35 on KJZZ channel 14) so we have been a bit stressed this week. Dustin's show is going great and they made a really smooth transition so that is good. He is so good at what he does. Anyway thats a quick update on us, we are also remodeling our basement shower and bath I will get some pictures up soon if I can. :)

New videos - dancing and singing


So this is a random video I got last week. Orion has learned how to stomp his feet and dance (which is kinda crazy) he is so random and fun right now. Learning so much everyday, I am amazed at the changes that are happening so quickly right now. As you can see he loves the TV also and his favorite show is the Doodlebops on Disney (that's what he is watching at the end of the video) - I Tivo it so he can watch whenever. I love to see him watch it, he gets the best facial expression while he is watching. As you can see we are still working on the house, this is where I stopped with the hardwood, I will do the kitchen with the same hardwood when I finish the cabinets :) ugh.


This second video is his first music video. Lisa gave him this cute little music alligator that he loves and he drags it all over the house playing and singing. Its hilarious.

Happy new year! Bring on 2008!

I cant believe we are going into 2008. It's craziness... anyway, I thought I should throw a couple of pics on here real quick. We didn't do much for new years because Dustin had to work, so I just rented a few movies and tried to take it easy. This is a pic of Orion sitting on Steve's lap playing, he loves to play with Steve its so cute he gets so excited and if he wakes up early will go pound on Steve's door until he wakes up.
Orion still loves to play the "where is Orion?" game... he hides in our closet, under blankets, behind his own hands etc and gets a kick out of it. He is teething again - ugh poor guy - so his shirt is pretty wet in these pics. :)
Happy new year everyone!!
