Ted used a spoon to feed himself last week!  While getting very little food on his parents!  He’s got the skills!

Ted eats a PB&J

Kate filmed Ted eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.  It’s not his favorite food (yet), but he did give it a few good bites.

Forty-second and Forty-third Weekiversaries

Ted is finally over all the colds, teething, rashes, etc. (knock on wood) and has been back to his usual goofy self for the past few days.  I am still working on getting him back onto a reasonable schedule.  He is close to only waking up once at night, but seems to think that it is a good idea to wake up for the day before 5am.

His mode of transportation these days is the army crawl.  He goes from sitting to his hands and knees like he is going to crawl, but then drops his belly to the floor and scooches along instead.  He loves to jump so much I think he might just jump everywhere before he learns to walk.  Oh! and he waves now!

He loves yogurt.  The first time we gave it to him he apparently came down with a new virus on the same day, so we had held off for awhile, but now he handles it fine and eats more of it than anything else except cheerios.  He has also had cherry applesauce, some white rice, and chunks of chicken.

Early this past week he got to play in the snow for the first time.  He seemed to really like it and didn’t even mind being in his snow suit.  We got 5 or six inches.  I guess it was the first time in five years that we have had more than an inch of snow!

This weekend Auntie Christine came to visit.  We had fun shopping and eating out.  Even trying out Ted’s Montana Grill.  Ted was very happy to get to play with her and ride on her shoulders all weekend.  Pat and I even went out to a movie on Saturday night.  We saw Slumdog Millionaire.  It was a great weekend!  Now we are looking forward to next weekend when we will be in RI again!

Catching Up

Posted by Patrick on January 30th, 2008

Parties of the clandestine sort
So I was all going to blog about this super sweet surprise birthday party my fam threw for me (right after the last party we went to) when – all of a sudden – my dad posted about it! I thought I sensed a disturbance in the internet force. Nice to see that a blog can come back after a long hiatus. (ahem).

It was good times, I was totally surprised! Getting to eat at Chelo’s is one of those things I’d like to do on every New England trip, but since we moved our time up north is usually too limited. I had the roast beef sandwich, which is super tasty and I think their specialty (besides cake). I thought I was stuffed, but found more eating room when some birthday cake was brought to the table.

It was good food and good prizes including a certain robot movie on dvd, a new tv remote so we can see all channels our tv provides over the airwaves, and lots of gift cards including one to Home Depot which we used to….

TedPrep
…. get paint and brushes to paint Ted’s room. His room is pretty close to being baby-ready now thanks to all the sweet gifts people keep sending him, but the walls were plain white, so we got a couple of gallons of a light blue paint and went to town. I think it’s the nicest looking room in the house now. We’ll post some photos soon.

Pancakes!
Back in the day my mom would make us pancakes for supper from Corn Muffin mix. I’m not sure I ever saw a box of corn muffin mix be transformed into muffins, but they always made good pancakes. I hadn’t ever run into them in the outside world though.

Tonight we ventured to the International House of Pancakes which just opened in the town next to us for some fine dining. To my surprise (and pancake-related joy) I found that they now serve corn muffin pancakes! I ordered some and they were almost exactly like I remember… except mom never served them with the carafe of coffee like IHOP does (probably for good reason).
