My Bug is One of a Kind!

He walked a little late, but a week later he was running.

He talked a little late, but a week later he was talking in full sentences.

And we thought he'd wear diapers to college ... but all of a sudden: We haven't used a diaper (other than for naps and nighttime) in three days.

I'm so proud of him. He knows what's right for him, and he will do things when he's darn good and ready. Good for him!

Matias is weird.

He won't drink bottles, but is fine with sippies.

He doesn't like purees, but prefers to feed himself chunks of food.

Isn't he supposed to be a baby?

Starting over ...

I've been horrible about keeping this blog up. But ... I'm starting over. I'm rededicating myself. I will blog. I will. At least once a week.

So, since my last post ... I'm now a stay-at-home mama! Love it. I don't love being broke, but I love watching my boys grow every day. I love watching them thrive. I am just so in love. Love, love, love!!!

Matias just wasn't doing well in daycare. He was completely rejecting bottles. And who can blame him? Nummies are just so cuddly.

My challenges are ... finding order to our days and weeks, accepting that order will be fleeting, making sure that their brains are stimulated, and finding adults to interact with during the day. As a means to solve at least a few of those issues, I'll be using this blog to post weekly menus, activities we do, activities we want to do, and -- of course -- PHOTOS!!!
