I’m up a little late, watching the Rice Owls play Texas on Owlvision in the regional college baseball playoffs. I don’t have time to throw together a bunch of video or anything, but wanted to post an update on Will’s day. (And that’s a picture of Will with his “girlfriend” in kindergarten.)
The best part is that our strategy for introducing new foods seems to be working. Last week, his choice was diced peaches. He had his second serving on Saturday and got his Brusters. Then, this morning, he decided (while watching Elmo’s World talking about bananas) that he was going to eat a banana for breakfast. Well, now, we hadn’t even talked about his food of the week yet. But a banana it was, and he did a great job finishing it off. (Sean and Daniel aren’t problems with bananas — if Sean sees a banana, he wants it, and Daniel will eat it if you put it in front of him.)
Even better, tonight, Will decided that he wanted spaghetti AND diced peaches with his meatballs. No significant prompting. So, I think it worked.
Today was a pool day, as well. Had lunch at the pool, too. He enjoyed jumping in and playing in the water, and I think he made a couple of new friends with kids near his age that he was playing with. So, overall, a good day (and weekend). Hope your weekend was good, too.
GAME UPDATE: As I finished up this entry, Rice won the game, 7-4. They will host the super-regional (best of 3) next weekend at Reckling Park. This is the fourth straight time they’ve made the super-regionals. Go Owls!
