Day 98 of 433

Hooray! Almost a fourth of the way through! I feel I've done pretty well so far :). 

This was a few weeks ago. He had fallen asleep in his swing that wasn't swinging haha. CUTEST!

Well today was a day full of productivity and excitement! 

I woke up late-ish and ate a breakfast of plain greek yogurt with honey and frozen berries then cleaned up the kitchen a little. Of course I only got so far before I remembered I wanted to make a smoothie. So before I did that, I had to clear off room on the counter. Which meant putting the left over split pea soup in little containers so I could put away the base and moving the ceramic (i think) pot thing you cook the food in over on the other side of the sink to be washed. So I did that and after cleaning up the kitchen a little more, I finally made that smoothie. It was actually pretty good! Then for lunch, I made spiral pasta with artichoke pesto sauce and meatballs. Then my mom came over to record Oliver's first solid food experience! But before all that, I received a call from the car dealership giving me some information on another car option. Long story short, I'm going down to sign the papers and hand over the check tomorrow! So exciting!

This is the car :) 

So eventually, Oliver got hungry after waking up from his nap by my talking on the phone to the man at the dealership about the car. It was so fun feeding him! At first, he wasn't quite sure what was happening so I put a little on my finger and he opened his mouth to taste it. Then I used the spoon, which is a little big but worked for the time being, to feed him little bits at a time. He started to get really into it then he started to get full and after each bite he'd grimace a little. It was so cute! I'm excited for this phase :). My little Oliver's growing up! After that excitement, my mom left and I cleaned up a little more. Then I got the great news about the car! The second after I got off the phone with the man from the dealership, I bought a train ticket to Glendale and got that figured out. Now I just need to get my butt in gear and finish making sure the diaper bag is fully stocked and that I have everything I need for the day. But I'm just so excited! And I want to finish this first. I have to get up early though so I should stop being so easily distracted by Lopez Tonight haha. Okay I'm here.  

I couldn't get the pictures from Oliver's first solid food meal onto the computer until just now. I think the memory card was being stubborn or something lol. Well here are the pictures!

The cereal

A little thick, but as it warmed up a little more it got thinner

Yum!

Passed out Oliver!

Oliver Update: He ate his cereal without making a huge mess :) and tomorrow he's going to get to experience his last time in his baby car seat and his first time in his upright seat and in the new car too! Exciting! I think I'm more excited than he is. Haha. I'll take a picture of it tomorrow!

Goodnight!
