After Knoebels Asher and Hadley went with my parents for a week at Grammy and PopPop summer camp! They were so excited to travel with them and stay all by themselves (but together - they didn't want to be apart) for a week of fun. Noel and I drove home all by ourselves and got ready for our week of mommy/baby time! Drew unexpectedly had to go abroad for work so it was really just me and the little guy.
Here's how Noel felt about being an only child. ha!
Since I knew the big kids would be gone I planned all of my annual doctor visits, car repairs, and house projects for this week. Needless to say, Noel and I were busy. It really ended up being only 4 days between when we left Knoebels and when we headed to Raleigh to join the fun so we packed a lot in. You guys - one kid is easy as pie! (except when it's your first, then one kid is H-A-R-D). Noel and I got a lot done and it felt great.
This week I decided to bite the bullet and give Noel his first solid food. I've been waiting since I really wanted to exclusively breastfeed for 6 months. We made it 5 months and 3 weeks, so that was great. Noel has been complaining when people don't share their food with him, so I knew it was time. We always give bananas as a first food - Noel was a huge fan!
He kept grabbing my arm to get the spoon back faster. It was too funny!
Precious big boy!
Noel and I also watched a lot of Olympics. It wasn't nearly as much fun watching alone but we did our best. I saw this tweet and it completely cracked me up. The athletes are amazing and I think having an Average Joe competitor would really put things in perspective, ha!
We had a great week but missed Daddy and I big kids a lot. Our house was too quiet and we were excited to go find them in Raleigh!
