Not feeling well

The day before his birthday he was us most of the night. When we did actually get up for the day, he just wanted to cuddle.

Just for fun, here's a picture of his curved foot.

Sensory Tub fun

I gave Isaac the option of water or lentils, and he picked lentils. They are now everywhere, I'm not sure he's ever going to learn to calm down at the sensory table. Nolan loved splashing in the water.





Got caught playing together


Hi mom, let me show off for you

He was looking at the flowers moving in the wind, so I called his name.
And this is the look I usually get, unless I have my camera in my hand.
Then I get this cute smile.
The entire way around the block he was honking the horn. He loves making noise, I mean music.

Pulling up onto knees

He may start pulling himself up to his feet soon.

Family fun outside

We've been putting the finishing touches on the chicken coop while the kids enjoy the great weather outside with us. Isaac has set up this cute little gardening area for himself. Then David impressed me with a sliding door for the chickens. And Nolan discovered what grass tastes like and Isaac's been searching for pet worms.






Garden Fresh in March?

Here's all the outdoor veggies that didn't die and are thriving. Here's the cilantro.
Onions and chives.
Asparagus.
Green onions and oregano.

Some new foods and an allergy

Today we tried some eggs after he refused to eat Banana Orange Medley and Apple Blueberry. He liked the eggs, but then he started to turn red around his mouth and then got bumps (hives)! So I called the doctor and I though it was the oranges in the Banana Orange Medley. Then I looked at the label of the Banana Orange Medley and it consist of Banana Puree, Mango Puree, and on down the list is orange juice. He's really allergic to Mango, which David is also allergic to.





He's been giving me a hard time when it comes to feeding. He now won't eat any vegetables, which were his favorite, and has recently preferred fruits, but now he wants to eat solid foods. The problem is that he still gags and is still trying to learn to chew and swallow. As you can see he isn't starving. So I'm not that worried about his eating yet. He seems to have a sensory problem with his mouth, whereas, Isaac has a problem touching foods of different texture. I'm glad that Nolan doesn't have a problem picking up bananas or other wet foods. In contrast Isaac likes to use a fork to eat chicken nuggets so he doesn't have to pick them up.
