He likes to feed himself

It's the same story every morning. One spoonful of cereal, then total refusal when I offer the second. We keep trying for about 30 minutes, but we always end up opening an avocado and sneaking a few Cheerios in his mouth while he is playing with them.

He likes to use his 7 teeth. He seems to know what they are for already, and has very little tolerance for foods where they aren't necessary.

Ari started saying "Mamamama" for my Mother's Day present.

Being Ari's Mommy

It is so hard to explain how perfect it feels to be Ari's mom. He has helped me to remember all the things that are important in my life. I have put more effort into developing my own talents because they are the things that I want him to be surrounded by as he grows up, and it makes me more happy at the same time. He is so beautiful and it is so fun to watch him grow.

Small Things that are Big, that Make a Big Difference

I got tired of watching Ari hit his head on the hardwood floor, so we bought this big shag rug. Ari loves rolling around on the floor now. He does a worm-like move that I think will eventually lead to crawling. It is so soft and thick that he even takes his naps on it sometimes.
