Latest Feeding Therapy and more updates

We had what was probably our last (or maybe 2nd-to-last) feeding therapy appt yesterday. As always we bring food that he does well with and food that he doesn't do so well with. However, he was very interested in eating all of it, proving Mom & Dad wrong once again....Anyway, he was slow to learn to chew really well but has totally gotten the hang of that and chews great now. The Feeding Therapist was very impressed with his progress, gave us a few recommendations, and said we don't need to go back again unless we just want to check in with her in 6-8 weeks.

Tyler's been doing great on the eating front. This week they are having him in the Toddler Room 2 hours per day, including lunchtime, and he's eating like a champ. Today they had chicken nuggets (which are tough for him since he's a slow chewer), but he ate enough. Monday he ate 1.5 of the cornbread muffins at breakfast and 2 servings of lunch (chicken stir-fry). We were amazed.

Daycare has officially set his transition day to the Toddler Room as 5/31. YAY! He's not walking yet but I would not be surprised if he's walking relatively soon after the transition since most of the kids over there are walking.

Tyler got his first haircut on Mother's Day. We went over to Snip-It's in Brier Creek, and it's totally kid-centric. The only thing Tyler fussed about was the cape they tried to put on him so we went without that and it went fine. We had the big camera and video to record the moment, and they gave us a clipping of his hair. Got some great photos too.

We also got him bigger shoes this past weekend - kiddos feet are growing slowly but surely. We had a coupon so we ended up getting him 2 pairs, so he's ready for any occaision now.

And did i mention that we are now a bottle-free household? So glad not to have to wash those Doc Brown bottles with a gazillion parts each. Sippy cups go in the dishwasher.

And as a mom of a reflux-y baby, it's so nice to do his laundry every week or so! For a while there we were doing it daily, so this is a much needed change.

And those are all the updates I can think of for now......
