Aaron job has been keeping him really busy lately. He probably puts in approximately 10 to 12 hours a day right now. Which means that there has been only a little amount of Family Time.
He does get up every morning with the boys around 7 AM, I call it boy time, because I sleep in until he heads to work around 10 AM, but these days I feel like we are more of a split family, therefore I scheduled in a Family Lunch at his office.
The boys and I went grocery shopping this morning, and I picked up grocery items to make a chicken cesear salad, but more importantly, I went down the Baby Food aisle and bought the boys their first box of Gerber DHA rice cereal (yum, yum).
Dr. B gave us the go ahead yesterday to start feeding the boys some solid food, and since Daddy has been ever so busy, I didn't want to miss this big milestone in their lives, we will just fit it in where we can.
Well, it was a lunch to remember for sure. They were a bit bewildered by the sensation, they didn't hate it. Except that mommy, was running a little behind schedule (she usually is), so by the time that we were ready to feed them, they were quite ticked that we were shoving something in their mouth "instead of feeding them"! :)
Ryder before even started to feed him was crying... we totally should have heeded his warning! (Patience is CLEARLY not his strong suit!)
They took several tablespoons though (made from 1oz formula), as well as their bottles. The funniest thing, in my opinion, was definitely when they'd latch their lips onto the spoon and try to suck the cereal off! :)
They actually both did very well, and didn't really spit the cereal out at all! They didn't exactly know WHAT to do with it, but most (if not all) of it that made it in, stayed in! :-P
Well, lunch went by real fast and Daddy had to get back to work. I hope these crazy hours slow down a bit and we can find more opportunities for Family Time.
