Shopping!
Today we took Owain shopping. It wasn't the first time our little man has gone shopping but it was his first time sitting in the shopping cart like a big boy! He had a great time checking everything and everyone out. He even saw some cute older girls ( I am guessing they were three and seven) to flirt with. I told him "your to young to date!"As you can see by the picture below he had fun.He didn't have his melt down until daddy put him back in his car seat. It was really close to his bedtime and I don't think he is feeling 100% like himself. He has a little cold. I hope it doesn't turn into anything else. If he ends up getting a fever I plan on taking him to the doctor. Because he no longer as his spleen he his at higher risk to getting an infection so we need to keep a close on him. Hopefully tonight will be a better night of sleep for us all.
