So the carrots didn’t go over very well so I won’t be cooking them again for him for another few weeks or a month or so. I think these were undercooked and didn’t strain well so it was pretty runny. Like carrot water. I love making his food even though he doesn’t always [...]
Lowell is almost 28 inches long but only weighs 15 pounds, 14 ounces. At this same age, James was half an inch longer and 3 pounds, 5 ounces heavier. Yes, Lowell is still my little shrimp. I like to think he’d be chubbier, heavier, if he didn’t spend so much of his energy crying, wailing, [...]

We were at the Austin Children’s Museum and he fell asleep, yes, sucking his thumb. I needed to have fed him but ended up skipping that feeding altogether. He doesn’t find his thumb normally. I guess he needs to be bundled up like he is in the mei tai.
