He eats!!!

Man oh man! What a week it has been!  it has literally been overwhelming, crazy, and sooo awesome all at the same time! Our baby is totally becoming a little boy...... Sigh...... Trying to keep the tears (joyful and ahhh) under control ;-) so Case went from HATING food in basically all forms except milk to suddenly being a champion eater! I'm so proud of him! We kept trying and he just wasn't taking the bait but we never pushed.... And like most things..... All in good time they work out .... This past weekend it was like he flipped a switch! Suddenly he grabs and devours his little gfree organic spinach and kale puffs like a champ! He eats every bite of his homemade pear, blueberry, and quinoa puree and chews right through his bites of fresh avocado! !! But he doesn't like to grab those himself.... If it sticks to his hand... He is not a fan! Lol!!! But he will let me put it in his mouth over and over ;-)  Its unreal and incredible! He has been eating two meals a day like that for a week now!

Case the Cowboy!

So, we took Case to the Round Rock Market this morning for the first time and he was turning heads left and right - he makes QUITE the ADORABLE little Wrangler!!! ;) ENJOY!

Crawfish!!!

So Case had his first crawfish boil tonight and it wore him out ;-) we were at Rhashonda and K's house helping them pack up the kitchen for their upcoming move and they treated us to some AMAZING crawfish!!!!

We had an awesome time with fabulous friends!  We had all the babies on our backs in the ergos while we packed and they were all starting to get fussy and so we gave them each a stalk of celery.... Miraculously, this worked they all got happy and content! And we were able to keep on truckin ;-) then Case totally passed out celery in mouth!!!!

It was hilarious we couldn't believe our eyes!!! This is literally only the second time since his birth that he has fallen asleep without nursing and serious effort on our part! And how we talked about -but never took a pic of the three little and big amigos I have no idea?! Shame on us! All the same- great fun - great food! Also it was Sara & E's first time having boiled crawfish- fun to be part of that!! And God bless them if they ever hope to find them that tasty in a restaurant!  It was a culinary event from S & E's fantastic buffalo blue cheese chicken dip as our appetizer to the crawdads to the chocolate cake with fresh whipped cream and berries! No wonder I feel like I've gained 5 lbs! Now to get some sleep! Love to all!

First Word!

Drumroll please............................ We officially have Case's first word to report!!! "DADA"!  So, it was hilarious how this happened........ last night while the three of us were at the dinner table, Case was chattering away at us as he so often does in his little syllables all strung together and one of his favorites is "DA" so we get long strings of DADADADA type sounds all the time but with no real "intention" or "direction"... So, I say to BB, "when do we eventually make the call and say his first word has been said and if it is "dada"?  b/c he uses those sounds so often but doesn't seem to mean them distinctly yet..." to which BB replies, "not yet that's for sure," agreeing that he doesn't use it precisely or with any intention.  Then one second later as Case has been listening to our chat over all this, BB says to Case, "Can you say DADA?" and Case looks right at him and clear as day, repeats "DADA" back to him!!!! We both cracked up immediately and said simultaneously, "well i guess that settles that!" and so there you have it Case has spoken and the word is "DADA!"  As for a follow up with "MAMA" i may be in for quite a wait since none of his little sounds include an "M" just yet ;) - SO, that is the news from this weekend - SO EXCITED!

Practicing on those trunks

Not sure why the sound sometimes doesn't work on this one but you get a cute smile and little sample of Case practicing getting up and down, balancing, figuring out that you have to move those little pancake feet ;) hee hee - enjoy!
