Look Ma, BOTH Hands!


We have started quasi-spoon feeding.  Once or twice a day, we attempt to give junior a bit of cereal.  Calling this stuff cereal is actually very misleading.  It should be called mush, or gruel, or ... nasty.  

Step 1 - shove a little nasty into Holden's mouth.  Step 2 - Holden smacks his gums, wrinkles his nose, giggles, and shoves it back out with his tongue.  Step 3 - Repeat Step 1.  Continue until you are so grossed out you need to step out for a little fresh air. 

This kid talks and laughs a LOT!  If this is any indication of his future personality, we either have another Rowdy or Mi Mi on our hands.

Our dear son held his bottle through an entire feeding by himself, today.  I think it was a fluke, but we will test it again later.

I have been under the weather this week... way under the weather.  I can't talk today, a touch of laryngitis (I didn't even have to look that word up!)  My mom was forced to discover the wonderful world of text messaging.  I had to miss cousin H's grad party, today.  Sorry, H.  I really wanted to be there.

Well, we've got another busy week ahead of us and the laundry STILL isn't doing itself.  

Funny story - My husband was disappointed that I took away his "magic" laundry basket when we got married ... when he lived at his parent's house, he put dirty clothes into the magic basket and they reappeared washed and folded.  

We all have our dreams.  I now have a magic toilet seat that seems to open up on its own when no one is looking.  I could do without THAT magic.

Have a great week!

Tell Jordan if he finds his magic laundry basket, I'll pay big money for it!
