After work yesterday (4/8/14), we had to run
some errands at the mall and decided to catch a quick dinner at the new “What
the Pho Express” restaurant (thumbs down, in case you were wondering). Sebastian had just
finished eating when we picked him up from school so we figured he’d be fine
while we ate real quick. We were
wrong! As soon as we sat down, he
demanded (yes, demanded) he be fed!
Eating at restaurants with a baby in tow is a totally different
experience than without one but this was the first time he really consumed all
of our attention! I barely got to eat –
I can definitely see how many moms get so skinny at a certain point in time!
Don't get me wrong, we're so happy he seems to
like food and isn't picky! With each passing day, the food section on his school
"report card" continues to grow with all the meals and types of food
he's eaten! And ALL of it is eaten no matter what is served! I'm also happy to
report that he still loves his breast milk (he better)! ;) Yesterday he seemed super excited about my pho
and kept banging his little hand on the table for more spoonfuls of soup and
pieces of meat (bad habit, I know). He also tried getting up on the table to
get closer to the food and would whine if he wasn't fed fast enough! By the
time the meal was over, he was super grimy from feeding himself the meat chunks
and his whole person smelled like pho broth. David and I were literally sweaty
from trying to feed him all while attempting to keep him and the area clean! ;) Moving forward we will definitely need to
come more equipped with extra bibs and wipes. (Darn, I wish I had a picture or video!)
Oh, and by the way, as soon as we got home,
he proceeded to chug two bottles of breast milk before bath and bed time! He chugged another bottle before passing out, as well. We’ve got a cute lil’ porky on our hands,
folks! :)
