Dr. Owen said Cooper looked fantastic.  Then we had an awkward moment when Dr. Owen said we could now start giving Cooper baby yogurt since Cooper was 9 months old.  Drew and I didn't know what to say so we just stared at each other in silence and grinned.  We started giving Cooper yogurt at 6 months this time around.  Dr. Owen kind of laughed and said it was fine.  That is why I LOVE our doctor.  He's a follow the rules type of guy, but he's also very relaxed about everything as well.  Cooper didn't need any of the required shots this visit, but he did get part 1 of his flu shot.  He handled it pretty well since it was just that one shot.
