Everyone says that one of the most amazing thing about having children is the ability to see things through their eyes. Almost every experience is a new one. I saw that in Morgan's eyes this afternoon as we were playing in the front yard. There were a bunch of crows crackling at each other. I told Morgan to look at the birds. He was totally fascinated. I saw in his eyes what everyone had told me before I had him. EVERYTHING is new for him. Even the birds that we are so used to hearing every spring. He sat totally still for a short while. Then, he started yelling and pointing at the birds. Of course we had to run after them. They flew off and he laughed his head off. I love watching Morgan see everything for the first time.
He grabbed a leaf when I wasn't looking and tried to eat it. Yesterday I looked all over for my grocery list. I looked at Morgan just in time to see him puke part of it up. You would think that my little paper/leaf eater isn't a picky eater... wrong! Here's the look of protest he gave me at lunch today when I tried to feed him anything healthy. All he wants are Cheerios. I forced a container of green beans and half a serving of carrots down him before a full on protest began. I'm sure they taste much better than leaves and paper!
This is his "new" vintage high chair. I still need to attach the straps (on order). I just love Craigslist! He already has a fabulous Stokke Tripp Trapp high chair. But, it doesn't come with the tray. I'd like for him to learn on a tray before banging up our dining room table. Right now he still won't eat too many foods with chunks in them. He only has 4 teeth. He pretty much just likes to throw everything on the floor to the dogs. They of course love it. The dogs come running every time we even get near that high chair.
I know that he is screaming his head off in this photo. But... doesn't Bret have the best hair ever?!?!?!
