The times, they are a'changing.

Ha, I knew once I was on my last straw with this eating thing, LB would come around. It started a few nights ago at my neighbor's house where LB ate chicken- yay! A meat! He took about five bites, but it's better than nothing. He also has eaten grilled cheese and breaded haddock. He likes french fries now, but still won't eat any veggies. I have that Deceptively Delicious book, so I suppose instead of wasting time on the internet, I should browse those recipes.

Another update with LB. I finally purchased black out blinds and hung them in his room yesterday. They aren't completely black out ones, but they sure darken the room a lot, especially since his room is the brightest in the house at dawn. This morning, he woke up at about 8am. YAY!! I was awake around 7am, so it was nice to have some time to myself instead of being woken up by the sounds of a kid whining (not the most pleasant way to start your day, right?).

Just in case any readers are behind in the latest LB tricks, here's a short list. He can:

Pry off outlet protectors.
Open doors, including the ones to the lanai.
Pull out textbooks, stack them, then stand on them to reach books on higher shelves.
Give hugs and kisses when asked.
Follow directions to open or close doors.
Find and point to his head, hair, nose, mouth, hands, belly, and feet.
Lay on his belly in his bath and kick his feet (with his head above water, but he will dip his face in).
Throw Puppy's racquetball for the dog to fetch.
Give Mommy a massage, which is just him standing on the couch behind me and smacking my shoulders, but it's a start.
Sign "more" and "all done", which helps during meal time.
And last, but not least at all, recognize Daddy's voice and face! I guess watching those videos of Daddy is paying off!
