My life is changing slowly. I've been introduced to this new thing, and now I eat three ways. I've mastered eating with Mommy, and with the thing they call the bottle too.
But this new way is similar to how Mommy and Daddy eat. You get to hold something in your hand. Well, at least every time I tried to when Mommy did it the first time I ended up with wet stuff on my face. It didn't really taste like much either. But, she kept giving it to me and so I ate it.
A week or so after I had the tasteless stuff I was introduced to the bright "yummy yummy carrots." They were yummy! I would eat them every day if I could. Mommy gave me them about every other day. Each time she gave them to me, I slept ALL night. That was my thank you to her for giving them to me.
I love carrots so much that I would get excited when I got them! Mommy would give me more sometimes. But one time, she thought I was still hungry, and she made some of that other stuff...it has no flavor like the yummy yummy carrots. I told her " Do not tease me with this tasteless stuff after the sweet sweetness of carrots." Mommy posted it on her Facebook status, and she got lots of comments.
I even wrote a poem about carrots...
Ode to the Carrot
by
Myles
Oh carrot you are so sweet
You really make me want to eat
You slurp and slime your way to my tummy
Reaffirming that solid food is yummy
No matter where you come from
When I eat you, I will sing and smile and hum
Oh Carrots, oh carrots how I love you
Please say you love me too!
Don't you just feel better now? I sure do! But then that Mommy of mine she played me for a fool. She traded out those carrots for something new. Erin gave them to me first. I think that should have been a clue something was different. Erin did a great job feeding me, but I wasn't a fan of the pears. They weren't yummy...they were yucky. I managed to swallow most of them, but I made some pretty good faces to show my disapproval. I didn't sleep all night after those pears either. Mommy almost got the hint because the next time she tried them on me, she mixed some of that tasteless stuff with them. All that did was combine two things that don't taste great into a new thing that doesn't taste great. I ate as much as I could but lost interest very quickly.
Tonight I had the privilege of trying "yummy, yummy Green Beans". Surprisingly they aren't that bad. Carrots they are not, but I think I like them.
I had a date this week. I know I know, Lily and Klohe if you're reading this we're still cool right? Mommy's friend Nancy wanted to see me, and so we hung out at our house after day care on Wednesday. It was fun, she was playing with me the whole time! She said she'd see me again at the end of the month. Not sure when that is but it sounds like she won't be gone forever.
But last night, last night was very different. We went to the "pool." We met up with Aunt Mary and Hailey and went to State Farm park. It was a really cool place. They have a big building you walk through to get to the water. Once we all got our clothes changed we went outside. It was pretty windy Mommy was worried I would get cold. I didn't until the end. Mommy put me in the water and let me stand up. The water was pretty cold! But after a few minutes it didn't seem as cold anymore. Then I sat in a chair that was in the water so Mommy could take pictures of me.
After that we went to the BIG pool with two slides. Mommy said I'm not big enough to go down those yet. Well, we played in the water and probably a little to much. I kept spitting up little bits at a time so Mommy said I was done. Most of it went on my onsie I was wearing. Then Mommy wrapped me in a towel. I was exhausted. Megan and Lily and their parents got to the pool just about the time I was done. So I got to sit on Lily's dad's lap (Mike) and I took a nap. After I woke up and Megan and Hailey were done playing in the water we went to the snack shop to eat dinner. Mommy had the worst hamburger ever. She took 3 bites and that was it. I got a good snack before we went home to see Daddy. He'd worked late and then visited Grandpa Carl for a while about a tool for his car. I woke up Mommy three times because I didn't eat any carrots before bed.
I was all smiles today when I went with Mommy to a work meeting. I got to meet Betsy, Dakota and Michaela. Dakota is my buddy. He is silly. Betsy played with me while Dakota and Michaela had a meeting about 4-H. Mommy keeps trying to explain what she does and I just don't get it. I guess I have lots of time to figure it out. She keeps mentioning this thing called a fair. I wonder what that will be like...
