Food? You want me to EAT this stuff?

This is one of the expressions I get when it's time to eat.
This is the other one. Of course, there are times when he doesn't complain too much, but he is fairly uninterested in food right now. The best so far has been applesauce mixed with rice cereal. It was a food fest for him...he ate between 10-15 bites. Oh well. My guess is that he won't go to kindergarten drinking only formula from a bottle.

Charles, too, is liking to use his chopsticks.

Not much new here. We tore out the carpet in our dining room and are putting in hardwood. My home is in complete chaos right now. We had to move all the furniture and now, literally, all the rooms in my home are a disaster. I hope no one is planning to visit in the next week or so. You may not be able to walk in here. Since we've lived in this house, we've used only cell phones and had no land line. Today, through a special by Charter Communications, we again have a landline with unlimited local and long-distance calls. Tonight, Henry had to try out the phone and call Gramma and Grampa. When they got on the phone he kept asking what this phone was called.

It occured to me that our children had no memory of using a telephone with a cord. He couldn't talk very long since, for Henry, you have to be in constant motion when talking on the telephone. It's best to try to walk on all the furniture, jump from the chair to the stool, and hopefully stand on the cupboard while talking. Not much other news, a friend is having surgery tomorrow to remove a tumor from her thyroid gland. We are praying it will be benign.
