Texas, soon

Me and the little man are heading to Texas today. I am excited to be in Texas but sad to not be in Mexico...I know it doesn't make sense. Not quite sure how I am gonna handle being away from Zach for so long, but I will just have to. The good thing is that both of us will be really busy...him with studies and me with appointments for Tate, so the time will pass easier!

Over the last few days, I have realized how nice it would be to have waterproof mascara. I seem to randomly cry when certain things happen...and then have some eye issues. After I got ready this morning, I realized I should not have even attempted with the mascara...oh well!

Zach is taking us to the airport in a few hours. Since I am going back on a way one ticket not knowing when or if I will return, I am bringing 3 suitcases. They told me on the phone it was okay...we will see when we get there. Always seem to have issues with airport people!

My posts now will be from Texas and hopefully frequent for daddy! I have been instructed to email him at least 2 pictures a day and upload to youtube at least 3 videos a week...I think I can make that work! He is gonna miss Tate so much...they are best buds! I am gonna miss seeing them together and hearing Zach talk to him. (Already messing up the mascara!)

Wish us luck with this time apart! And anyone in Texas...I would love to see you!

My boys hanging out!
Talking to each other...I love them!

Solids!

Tate started with solids on Monday of this week. I was expecting it to not go so well...you know more food on his face than in his tummy...but he did AMAZING! After about the 3rd bite, he knew exactly what was going on and opened his cute little mouth for the spoon. We just did oatmeal (cereal de avena) the first night...our pedi recommended it over rice cereal due to his past constipation issues, in case anyone cared about my sons poop! We started apples 2 days later and he loves both.

At every feeding so far, he makes a face of complete disgust with the first bite...but gets over it quickly. He then proceeds to demand faster feeding from me...the little hoss gets mad if I take too long preparing the next bite! It is going to be fun to try new kinds of food in future...but I am just glad that, so far (fingers crossed), he is a much much much better solid food eater than bottle feeder!!
