Oh how time flies

Finn's First Feeding


Phew...
He is down for a nap. Life is crazy right now and I wish that I could stop it for just a bit so that I could hold onto Finn a little longer (yes, separation anxiety will be occurring on my side). We just started solids. He seems to be handling it quite well so far. I am sticking with rice cereal for now and will move to veggies and fruits when he is 6 months. It is strange to nourish my baby with a spoon and not my body. I am both excited and a little sad at the thought of this. Granted, he is still nursing, and will until he is 1 year old, but the solids start to supplement his intake.

He has been rolling over since 4 months and loves to show off his new skill any chance he gets. He is just so much freakin fun that I don't want to lode this time - this moment.

In other news, the online class I am teaching for NAU is going very well - super smooth since all of the work was upfront. I just agreed to teach adjunct for Collins College one night a week. This should help us out financially. The class is upper level and less didactic than I am used to. It should be awesome. The only setback is that it runs from 6 - 11 pm... 5 freakin hours - oiye! He still is prone to waking up at midnight, then 2, 4, etc.... so coming home at 11:30 will be rough. Though it is only one night a week... I should heal.

We are on the brink of 6 months and more immunizations :( I am going to ask the doc to spread them out this time.... A little freaked by the number of them all at once. And, no more tylenol for the little guy.

I have to run......
