So. Or MacBook died, again. I think it's just that time to save up and get a new computer :/ For now, I bum of our awesome neighbors and use their laptop! I haven't posted in a hot minute. Mainly because of no computer, and because we have been busy! I feel like I have a ton to post on (and I do), but I'm going to break it up in new posts so I don't have one LONG post! First things first. I recently just celebrated my first Mother's Day, and man oh man was it awesome! We celebrated the whole weekend! Friday we went to the NC Zoo. It was Hasting's first time, and he did awesome! We took both the stroller and the mei tai carrier. Hasting mainly stayed in the mei tai, but did ride in the stroller a few times. The stroller was more for help in holding the diaper bag, drinks, and gift shop stuff. I know Hasting won't remember the trip, but it was a really fun experience for Chad and I as parents. We woke up early the next morning...

Still posting from my cell phone, & I have a brace on my wrist, so bare with me if you see any typos! Tonight at dinner time I decided to give a spoon a try with Hasting's dinner. I had already given him a bottle, but wanted to see how he would do in his bumbo being spoon fed. Prior to tonight I had been giving Hasting his oatmeal cereal in his bottle. Before you go judging me, I want to remind you that every baby is different. Hasting was ready for cereal, but not ready for a spoon. I bought Y-shaped nipples for his bottles and started him out with 4oz of milk & a formula scoop amount of rice cereal. After about 5 days of being on rice cereal I switched him to oatmeal because of constipation issues. Hasting has drank his oatmeal from a bottle the past 2 weeks & did great with it. He never choked or anything like that when taking it from a bottle. Tonight he ate from a spoon like a champ! It was such a fun experience for the both of us! It's such a bittersweet...
