Time Goes By

Almost five months have passed since my last update and a few changes have happened. First our little timesink is walking and almost running which means he really wears out his mommy and daddy now. And secondly, the official tooth count is up to eight but he still prefers most foods in puree form.

His first birthday in January was a real mixed bag: he liked being around all the folks but he caught a nasty cold the night before. He was definitely not feeling well but still tried to play like a champ. He didn't dive right into his cake like I would have thought but then we never gave him many sweets before this and he rarely ate anything with his hands. We have since made up for that oversight. He was enjoying a taste of Swiss truffles just last night.

Linda is home with him playing mom since she was laid off from her job and both of them are thriving because of it. It's wonderful watching those two play together.

All three of us are busy prepping the garden boxes for the spring planting. I'm going a bit crazy waiting for the weather to warm up and dry out a little bit. All our local shops have their spring plants in stock and I have my seeds ready to go but Mother Nature isn't cooperating with my insanity. Our little timesink helps out by taste testing all the dirt. I think he's trying to find out where to make the best mud pies when he's older.
