First Art Project

Yesterday my Munchkin worked on his first art project.  The daycare gave it to us today so we could have the first one.  Apparently he had a great time mucking around with the paint.

I present to you Robbie's masterpiece!

Horay for Eating and Drinking!

For the past little while we've been battling our little Munchkin's lack of appetite and having no desire to learn how to drink out of a sippy cup.  It's mostly been the newest medication we've had him on.  One of the side effects is a lack of appetite.

It was a bit frustrating that our little guy didn't want to eat.  But in the past two weeks that seems to have changed.  He's been eating more and more almost every day and this week he decided that drinking out of  a cup and a sippy cup isn't so bad and that he was rather interested in it.  He still has a ways to go.  It's still a messy unpredictable affair, but he's getting more out of the cup and into him than ever before.

Now we have to work on his menu choices a little bit, but that will come with time.  Currently all he really wants to eat is vanilla yoghurt, mangos, banana and strawberry.  I think he needs a little variety:)

I promise to take some pictures and post them this weekend.  We've been so busy being back at work and daycare that there are less opportunities.

A Whole Year!

Wow,  one year ago today Bruce and I were so excited.  It was the day we got to bring our little Munchkin home.

I still can't believe how the time has flown and how much he has grown.

Tooth Number 8

It looks like tooth number eight should be making it's appearance any moment now.  I think tooth number nine will be hot on it's heels.

The month of January

January was a long long month for our poor little Munchkin. It seems like he was sick all month. That wasn't really the case, but it seemed like it. He ended up having a bout of gastroenteritis which was no fun at all. We felt so horrible for him.

Then this past week just as he got over that it seems he managed to get an ear infection. So he's on antibiotics for that. But he does seem to be on the mend and is starting to turn back into our cheerful little boy again. This makes us happy.

Here is hoping that the month of February will be much better.

This time last year!

This time last year, we had just finished visiting our little boy in the ICU after the surgery to repair his heart.  He was full of tubes and had beeping monitors all around him.  

Today I'm watching him play and laugh and smile and giggle.  It's a much better day.

I can't believe it has already been a year.

Munchkin's Birthday Cupcake

This is the video of Robbie's Birthday cupcake on his actual birthday.  He didn't sleep through this one.

He made a better mess of the cake they had for him at daycare.  It was a sight to see.  But this one is still pretty cute.
