Growing Boy

David took these of Andrew using a fork to eat. There are just a few things that he will eat by himself. He still likes us to feed him his food. But he sure is growing up fast sometimes. Hopefully he'll become more independent as the year goes on.


Andrew's new favorite food is a nectarine. We started buying nectarines and eating them. Andrew being the "mooch" as he is, wanted to try one. So David gave him a bit of one. Andrew started off taking a small bit to taste it, to see if he liked it. His next bit was really big, so we figured that he likes them. He's been eating them ever since.
Just last week I gave him one to eat and he ate the whole thing. I now just give him a nectarine while he is sitting in his chair, with a plate underneath, and he goes to town. Andrew started off leaving the nectarine on the plate and bringing his mouth to it. Now he has learned to use his hands to eat it. Such a mess but he loves his fruit.

Lake trip Last Month

We went to Buena Vista last month for a day. We woke up early on a Monday morning and drove to my parents house to drive to the lake. We got up the lake mid-morning around 10 am. We set up camp and then went out on the boat for some wake boarding. Andrew just loved being in the water. He was just having a blast kinda jumping off the back step of the boat. Once he would be in the water he just wanted to walk around and splash. He would walk out into the water until he was almost fully under the water. But he just loved it.













Andrew has no problem on the boat. He was having a blast. I even showed him that he could put his hand out and have the water hit his hand. He thought that is was the coolest thing.
Andrew really didn't care for the life jacket, so we just put it one him while we were out on the boat. When we were on land we just let him run free.
