Due to some personal issues, I am going to be changing the web address for this blog. If you would like the web address email me at awntkmess@gmail.com and I will be glad to give it to you. I will keep this up here for a week or so before I actually change it. Thanks

On to tablefoods!

Well, we have started trying some random table foods with Carmine. And he seems to be so much more into it than he has been with baby food. He has had brocolli, ham, potatoes, pear, peach, watermelon, canteloupe. Probably more things I can't think of. We are still trying to keep it pretty simple and there are certain things that are off limits to him. And he will still be getting some baby food-the ones he really likes-avacado, sweet potatoes, pear and peaches. He will also be finishing off the others I already had frozen. I am loving this whole new relaxed approach. I found this article and it helped me relax a little because it just makes sense. And so far it has been true. Plus, now I am much more relaxed about the fact that he isn't actually "eating" much with this method. It is more about learning right now. He is getting all the nutrients he needs from me, which is how it should be right now. How much one can change between children!! I am definitely not more relaxed about which foods he is eating, but in other areas I am. At this point Rece had not even had ANY table food! Here he is enjoying his brocolli!

8 Months!

We got his 8 month pictures taken! They aren't my favorite, but the kid doesn't take bad pictures!

Labor Day

This was Rece at our local parade. I of course forgot my camera until the day of the parade. So nothing too exciting. Just the boys watching the parade.

Rece starts speech theray on September 12 and occupational therapy on Octber 3! Each is 1/2 an hour long and he will going once a week. I will keep updating! We are very excited about getting this started. And I still need to call our school district about preschool and to get him evaluated for that.

Rece

Carmine...There is about a 2 month age difference, but here is an example where I really don't think they look alike.

This is his newest thing he loves to do. He even gets brave and lets go with one hand, but after a while he fell backwards and hit his head on the wall...bad mommy, next time pull it out into the middle of the room!

Our little photographer, Rece got ahold of the camera and we had about 7 pictures like this :)
