Kowin's Plane Ride

Kowin is such a fun person to travel with. During the take off and landing he just giggles. It makes me laugh. I can't wait to fly again with him in a week or so. Our flight out to Arizona we sat in the back of the plane and had a whole row to ourselves. We absolutely loved it. 

I Love Arizona

Kowin really enjoyed eating strawberries and swinging on the swing set while hanging out at Jacqui's. What a life! Sounds like a real vacation to me. 

The last day in Arizona we went to feed the ducks and play at the park. Kowin loved the swinging sea horse.  

Bubbles

We love bath time. Kowin has recently started to wash his own hair. He loves the way the bubbles feel. Today he found out that he could rub the bubbles on his face. Once they get to his mouth he blows bubbles. 

Kowin has finally figured out where everything is in our new place. He now crawls all over. The other day I found him in our room. He had crawled into our laundry basket. Too cute, because it is something new for him. 

No Needles!

Today Kowin met with his endocrinologist. Every 4-6 months he gets his hormone, glucose, and electrolyte levels checked. In order to do this, they draw blood. Normally he is a very strong boy. Except for today. Not only was he tired, but the phlebotomist missed the vein and had to move it around a little. I felt bad. As soon as Kowin got in the car, he was out for the whole ride home.

I should also mention that Kowin LOVES to bounce in his crib. He holds onto the side while he bounces and shakes the crib. In so doing this, he has broken his crib. The railing that is supposed to slide down and make it easy to pick the babies up is now completely off. Therefore, last night Kowin had to sleep in my. We didn't get to sleep until after 12(yes midnight)That would explain why he took an early nap and even went to bed at seven.(but I won't complain about an early bedtime) 

We will find out shortly if Kowin has any problems with his blood tests. So far there haven't been any problems, and we are truly blessed. In the blind community they call Kowin a "Vanilla" blind child. Only because his only health issues are his eyes. With most vision impairments there are other health problems. Like I said before, we are blessed.
