I wrote this blogpost and then never published....so this is about a 3wk catch-up!!!
Owen can eat! We tried bananas on Saturday, May 28th, and they were a success!! No sickness! So bananas it was for about 4 days. He never got sick, but never liked them. He made a sour face with every bite! We will try again another day. After bananas we tried Peas! He actually liked peas! He really learned to swallow the peas, and never made a face. So now we are LOVING sweet potatoes! Im headed to the store today to get more! Owen's 6month appt is in another week or so. Hopefully she will not care that i never tried grains again, but I really do not want to feed him cereal 'just to see if it makes him sick still'. He loves vegetables, and I am sure as his taste buds develop, he will love fruits. One day, we will test the water with a cheerio or something.... banana picture below.
Owen took his first dip in the swimming pool over Memorial Day weekend as well! Big weekend for firsts! Saturday, May 28th did not go over so well. He was very unsure about it all, especially the cold water part. But Sunday was awesome! He laughed and smiled even though you could tell he was still unsure. Monday, he was loving it. He seemed very at ease in the water.
FFWD to the next weekend. Saturday and Sunday- Chad and I cleaned the whole house! Top to Bottom, front to back, inside and outside!!!! It was glorious to get it done! so relieving and relaxing to come home to a spotless house! Saturday, Chad, Owen, and myself went to a friends house for a cookout and swim! They have a 9month old boy, Roman! The boys are so cute together. They even held hands : ) We had a blast spending time with the Piersons, and can't wait to do it again!! Sunday, Owen and I took a breif hiatus from cleaning and went swimming with Mimi, and Owen actually kicked!!!!!! He kicked in the water like he knew what he was doing! Check out the video- precious!!!
