The reason they invented those bibs with sleeves

CJ
CJ turned 13 months old on Sunday, and while he can feed himself finger foods just fine, I've yet to let him use a utensil. That is, until today. We tried fruit first, and when he couldn't get it onto the fork, I turned to yogurt, his third course tonight at dinner. I thought it would be a little easier to work with, you know, because it's goopy. (And an unnatural shade of purple. My mess radar may have been turned off today. I'm just saying.)
Enjoy.

Typical
See, this is what always happens. I get all motivated, I post for a week, and then…nothing. It’s not that nothing’s happening, it’s just that nothing’s happening that I consider post-worthy. Like, I was on call Friday night and I didn’t get called in. While that does deserve a woot-woot (woot-woot!) I can hardly write more than two sentences about it.
This weekend was a weekend of movies and stuffing our faces. Since today was probably the most interesting day of it all (we LEFT! the HOUSE!) I figured I’d share it with you. And before you click away to go read about a more exciting person’s life, I want to say that I love hearing about the day-to-day stuff. That’s stuff we don’t normally get to hear about as readers. We get the deep thoughts, revelations, and the life events, big or small. But we rarely get the rest of the story. So here’s mine.
Deep thought for today: I am so grateful that we live near family.
Revelation: I forgot to brush my teeth this morning.
Life event: CJ went down a big, big slide. Also, he cried on the swings. Again.
Last night when Chris and I went to bed we made a plan. Do you feel like if you don’t make plans on the weekends you end up lying around the house until 4 pm and then by the time you get showered, dressed, and ready to go it’s 5:30 and all the stores you wanted to go to close at 6? Yeah, that’s pretty much every Sunday for us. But today was different. Today I wanted to go to Target and pick up some hairspray (really, any excuse to go to Target), and then I wanted to eat at Q’doba.
OK, people, even I’m bored. Blah blah blah errands. Blah blah blooey Q’doba. I think I can cut this down to 100 words or less: Woke CJ, got dressed, fed bottle, fed oatmeal, morning nap, Chris mowed, up at 11, out the door, 50% off at Old Navy, free drink duffle (I know!), swung by Target, tried Bed, Bath, and Beyond, didn’t have what I wanted, CJ protesting, cut errands short, college kids at Q’doba, spit out quesadilla, devoured burrito, threw food on floor, refilled sippy cup, caught in rain, raced home, afternoon nap, visit to sister-in-law’s, played on play set, cried on swings, slid down slide, climbed up slide, giggled with cousins, made Kimberly’s sloppy joes, pigged out, crashed on the couch.
