Personal Updates :)

I thought I should post a quick blog about what I've been up to on a personal level.

William is 16 months now! The time really flew by so fast! He makes Fred and me smile and laugh every single day! He can say a few words now, like "eat", "up", "hi", "spoon", and "applesauce". He's very friendly and plays well with others. I think he has like 9 teeth. It's hard to see into his mouth though because he's not cooperative when it comes to such things LOL!

Baby-led weaning has gone really well. I totally didn't keep updating along the way ooops! But... the main gist is, starting at 6 months, I let the baby learn to feed himself and bypassed purees. He now eats an awesome assortment of food, his palette is much more complex than mine was at age.. 25 LOL! I'm happy because he eats almost anything!

Some examples are:

Salmon with lemon dill sauce

Chicken with sundried tomatoes and horseradish sauce

Japanese Beef Curry

Shrimp

Lobster

Tilapia

Spinach Feta Omelets

Seaweed

Lots of different types of fruits and veggies

etc etc.

It's pretty awesome!

Also, the other day at a church function, he got on stage in the middle of his Auntie's performance and started dancing. Oh, but first he made sure to wave to his mommy and daddy. I almost died of happiness. I think that's one of my fave mom moments to date. Now I know what it's like to watch my boy do something and say, "That's my boy up there!" I was just so proud.

I swear, this dude has traveled more in his 16 months of life than I did in my first 25 years of life! He's been to Cali twice already hahahaha! Not to mention, Connecticut, Maryland, Virginia Beach, and Florida, among others! What a jetsetter!

So without further ado, here's some pictures my wonderful little family!
