Baby Food

I made some farro this week. So good. I also made it into baby food, with sauteed onions and orange bellpepper. Crosby loved it.

 

First steps

Ok, it was a little accidental, but Crosby did take about 3 tiny steps this morning, nonetheless.

Self-feeding

Crosby has been feeding himself for a few months now, but just with his hands. Today, we gave him a bowl with a spoon and some rice, and he actually scooped a couple of bites into his mouth. Of course, like most things with babies, by the time you think to grab your camera, they stopped doing the awesome thing they were doing, and you don't catch it on film. Oh well.

Rain, Rain, Go Away

It was a busy day for Vincent. I guess, all of us, actually.

Vincent's day: 9am - 12pm, Chinese school; rush home, grab a quick bite to eat, then off to 1pm birthday party; the birthday celebration included a trip downtown to see "Mr. Peabody & Sherman". This was his first movie without either David or I; 5pm, pick up from party and go to dinner; 7pm, home.

Tyler's day: 9am - 12pm, Chinese school; rush home to get Vincent to party; eat lunch; watched "Despicable Me," skipping nap; hung out with Mama, reviewing piano stuff, reading Matilda, then took a bath; 5pm, pick up Vincent and go to dinner; 7pm, home.

David's day: taxes, cleared junk for removal truck to pick up, took Vincent to party, got a flat tire, got flat changed, shower, back out to get Vincent, and go to dinner, put kids to bed.

Crosby and I took the older boys to Chinese school, then I took him to Bellevue Square and he played in the play area for the first time. This was his 3rd indoor playground this week. He was elated. It is such a treat to watch your children experience a new and exciting place. I remember the first time taking Vincent and Tyler there. Ty was still too small to know any better, but Vincent ran around there like he was on cloud nine. I vaguely remember that Ty was sort of happy to be there checking things out, too, actually. The remainder of our day was much like Tyler's, only Crosby took a nap instead of all the other things before dinner.

We got the boys to bed right when we got home. Now, I'm ready, too...goodnight.
