New Section: Christian’s Recipes

One thing I definitely noticed after being a mom is my memory is deteriorating. I am having a hard time remembering what solids I’ve fed Christian so far, all I remembered is he liked it very much. I guess the only way I am going to remember is to write it down, here, so that I have a record of all his favorite dishes, and later on when we have another kid, I can just come here and print off the recipes.

We’ve been pretty blessed, Christian’s good with solids, he eats just about anything I make him, with the exception of avocados. This week, I’ve decided to up the sophistication level a bit – mixed flavors with meat (salmon, beef and chicken).

and he crawls

oh and by the way, Tooth #3 has broken out from the gums, Tooth #4 is slowly getting there…

Photos: 6-Months

Mom and I took Christian to KidsPhoto at Oakridge Centre last week for a photo session. I love that place, the photographer was great, the gentleman who helped us choose the photos was nice…

*as per Jason’s request, all photos of topless-Christian have been removed.

Daddy Juggles, Baby Giggles

Chouchou made his first “laugh out REALLY loud ” the other night while playing with Jason. Apparently Jason was juggling with his toys. He had already gotten too tired laughing by the time I found the camera so that moment is now lost in time. However, he did another similar laugh today while watching Jason balance a pen on his nose. Thank goodness for the iPhone 3GS, here it is:

Crawl, or something like that

Chouchou has yet to figure out how to crawl, forward that is. He’s getting pretty good at crawling backwards though. Anyways, this is one of his recent attempts:

the Jolly Jumper Workout

Move over Jillian and Bob, here’s the hottest workout in town – the “Jolly Jumper” Workout, guaranteed results for Dad PLUS a super fun time for Baby AND a much-needed 15 mins break for Mom!

Let’s see a demo by Jason and Christian.

Yumm…Rice Cereal!

So we’ve started Mr. Tart on solids – rice cereal.

He seems to be taking it in quite well…even though it seems like Jason’s having more fun during the feeding.

(nevermind the hockey in the background…)
