Larkin's Picky Eating

Larkin has been very picky lately when it comes to food.  HOWEVER, of all the foods in the world he could like, he chooses TOMATOES!  I absolutely cannot stand tomatoes but he seems to love them.  Since that is the only vegetable (or some would say fruit) that he will eat right now, I am taking advantage.

He is still loving any fruit, but will not touch vegetables.  He also is eating a lot of beans (again, not my choice, but he loves them).  The dr. gave me good advice to offer him what we want him to eat and not give in to the junk food!  I'm staying strong, but definitely give in to some mac-n-cheese on occasion. :)

Oh, and if you are wondering, "Wow, Julia blogged twice in a week!" it's because I got a new camera!!  Who knows, this excitement might bring the blogger out of me. :)

This was spaghetti night.  Larkin enjoyed the noodles but didn't give them too much thought after he saw the tomatoes!!  Oh, and he wouldn't touch the meat... that's for you Gran and Brooke. :)

McWane Center with Friends

Larkin and I recently visited the McWane Center with some of our friends.  If Larkin could talk I think he would tell you this is one of his favorite places!  There is so much to look at and even do...even for such a little one like Larkin.  He loves playing in the water trough (not exactly sure what they call it) and watching the bubbles.  Larkin also enjoys the Aquarium part of the museum because he can stand and hold on to the glass.  There is also an area where you can pet sharks, but we left that up to Hannah Grace. :)

Cute pictures of the kiddos playing.  These are Larkin's friends, Julia and Hannah Grace.

She knew exactly what she was doing...so cute!

Huge BUBBLES!  Actually, I think this is mid-pop of a buddle.

 Waiting to touch the sharks...this might have been their "resting" period...

please, try telling a toddler that the sharks are resting!

Oh and this is where the moms started having fun. :)

 Gymnastics? :)

And the kiddos were free to roam...As Larkin plays with some kid's shoe. 

It was such a fun time with friends and a great outing in this hot weather.  I think a membership to the McWane Center is in our future! :)

Larkin's 1 Year old Pictures

Hello!  It's been a long time since I've sat down to blog.  I do have so much to catch up on, but for now I wanted to share Larkin's 1 year old pictures!

Ann Wade Parrish shot some pictures of our little man on Tuesday!  She is so speedy and already has them up on her blog.  This is just a glimpse of what she took, but she did a great job as usual.  Anyone who can take such good pictures of a "man on the move" possesses incredible talent!

Enjoy!
