Sometimes you have to go home

It's been busy around here the last few weeks! I moved back home to my Mom's so that I can save some money and it will also give me more time to find a job that gives me the flexibility I'm looking for so that I can spend most of Mr. O's awake time with him. There is very little that I hate more than moving and good golly moving with a baby is HARD! I hated having to keep him out of the way in his swing, play yard or someone else's arms just so I could get everything done. We both missed our routine and playtime. We're still in the middle of settling in and most of my stuff is sitting in a storage unit parked in the driveway until I can figure out where to put everything.

Mr. O is doing great! I still find it hard to believe that I grew this tiny human. He's really liking food but his true love is drinking out of a cup. The boy goes crazy for cups! We're taking it slow but having a great time trying out new foods. This week spinach got two thumbs up but oatmeal cereal was not a big hit. I'm working on a post with more details on how baby led weaning is working out for us. The boy is working hard on getting around and is pretty quick with the belly crawl. I think he'll be full on crawling any day now.

I can't even imagine moving with a baby! All that packing, etc...

Glad to hear O is doing so well!
