Today was great and very busy.
Owen Danh woke up in a good mood and we started the feedings. He doesn't eat/drink a whole lot each time we feed him, but he lets us know when he's hungry. We're doing what we can to get him on a routine.
He was sounding a little sick today, we thought his cold might be getting worse. So we took him to the SOS International Clinic just to be safe. Owen was brave as he ventured out, taking in all the sights and sounds. The doctor was very friendly and she told us that he has minor bronchitis (sp) and an ear infection. This was probably part of why he was crying so much yesterday. So far he's taken his meds, but he sure doesn't like them. Ange and I were even thinking of asking the doc to check us out as well, since we've both had sore throats all day.
On the way back we stopped by the local FiviMart to pick up a few things. Owen had his first shopping experience and he behaved remarkably. He was amazed by the selection and couldn't get enough of Vietnamese TV playing on the big screens in each isle. The baby clothes weren't great but we picked up a few colourful items for Owen, since most of his pants don't seem to fit him. (His belly is bigger than expected)
During this full day my dad has been a big help by running around getting us meals, picking things up for us, and only providing a little parenting advice here and there. Thanks Dad!
Tonight after Owen's nap he was up and playing with us for a while, we saw a few smiles as he crawled a little and a few grunts as he had his first poop! (eeewww, baby poop stinks more than I thought!)
Sorry we haven't posted more photos/video we really did have a busy day, we'll do what we can. We are having trouble with the video. But we will keep trying.

Treatment for the ear infection should really help; I'm glad you were able to address that so quickly. I'm so happy for you all -- big-belly Owen's beautiful!
It's a real teaser when the video isn't even there!
I'm glad to hear the trip to the clinic got some results for you.
Has anyone taught Grandpa how to upload video and photography? He is perhaps the most rested out of the bunch of you...

It sounds like a great start. Sounds like his cold is on the mend. I hope you both stay healthy and enjoy your time getting to know your little boy! I'm sad the video teaser wasn't there... I look forward to seeing it when it gets posted. I bet you can't wipe te smile from your faces...
Looks like you made the right decision in taking him in to the SOS. Hopefully he will start feeling better now.
Enjoy your beautiful baby boy!!!
