not grumpy with cows - 06:02 PM
(filed under 'baby')
currently, the only thing which makes my grumpy & possibly teething baby happy (aside from holding him & patting him for twenty minutes out of every half hour) is the 'cows with guns' cd .. but only the track with the vocals, not the instrumental one.
solids task - 05:47 PM
(filed under 'baby')
man, this solids caper has added a whole new challenge to my day. i can't simply whip the boob out for a feed every time when he's hungry & then continue with what i was doing on the computer, albeit with only one hand.
giving riley solids requires more than just my full attention & two hands. it requires being a multitasking octopus: removing his hands from his mouth, trying to push him backwards to sit up so that i can reach his mouth with the spoon, collecting the dribbles going down his chin, & keeping the container of food & the spoon away from his hands.
at least it's quite fun when he seems to really enjoy what he's eating & he laughs so much that i wonder when he's going to close his mouth again to keep the food in.
