52 WoM - Week 35

So this week I have been busy cleaning in preparation for my in-laws coming to visit. I have been very busy and very tired at the end of the day. Fortunately, David took a picture of me and the little guy on Sunday. I actually forgot about it until tonight when I thought I didn't have any pictures of the two of us for the week and was going "I need to take a picture tonight!" until David reminded me about the picture.

The aftermath

As Jojo has gotten older, he gets messier when he eats. He wants to feed himself and if I give him small pieces of food, he can do very well. The problem is he cannot use a spoon well at all and he usually gets the vegetable or fruit blends from Gerber. He tries to grab the container or the spoon during dinner and ends up wearing it. Or he decides that he'll stick his fingers in his mouth while it it is full of food and then proceed to smear it all over his face, head, and tray. Mealtimes are far more exciting now.

I have given up on bibs for the most part because of his eating habits. It's easier to wash the boy down when he is finished, then fight with him about wearing the bib. He got so upset about wearing one this week that he made himself sick and threw up his lunch. Not worth it to me.

Since his grandparents are in town and staying at my brother-in-law's house, we've gone over there to visit. It is a bigger place, so we all fit comfortably. The issue is the house is not baby-proofed. Jojo loves the open space for crawling around. Daddy "chased" him around to make sure he did not get into or break anything and to stop him from going up or down the stairs. Jojo found the whole thing very exciting and giggled like mad during his laps around the couch.

So much space here

Race you Daddy!

How did you get in front of me?

Finally, I got a cute picture of Jojo with his daddy earlier this week. Jojo is fascinated with some of the computer games we play. If it is one that we can play while holding him, we just put him into our lap. I love the look on his face in the picture. He was watching David's screen even while on the floor so I knew I could get a cute photo of him in Daddy's lap because he would focus on the screen.

Now Daddy, you want to do this on your next turn...
