Back to Normal

Aric went from this:

Back to this:

It is wonderful to have him acting like he normally does. Well, if having a home that looks like a tornado went through it can be deemed "wonderful". He's my little tornado, though.

Aric is still working on his walking. He can walk, he just prefers to hold on. Ryan and I are still working with Aric on walking on his own. It has been challenging, but we are seeing improvements in his confidence as he has started to let go and walk towards toys and other objects. Before he would only walk with prompting between the two of us.

We aren't doing much better in the picky eating department. We're offering him a range of foods and most of them end up on the floor. I'm confident that one of these days he'll actually start eating something, especially since eating bananas and sweet potatoes started the exact same way. Right now we're working on weaning him from formula to whole milk. At least the milk isn't ending up on the floor, well the sippy cup is, but that's for different reasons.

It's hard to believe how much Aric has changed in the past year. I feel so blessed to be his mommy.

I thought Avery was going to be eating baby food FOREVER b/c she wouldn't eat real food. One day she woke up and decided she'd eat ANYTHING. Crazy how kids work!
