A twelve year journey including a very long ortho surgery residency, first year as staff, a move to Fort Irwin AKA The Moon, a move back to DC, and now finally settling for a while in the Augusta, Georgia area-this blog tells a story of a boy and a girl leaving NYC, both switching careers, joining the Army, starting our family, loving, losing, living... Buckle up, this life of ours is bumpy, but full of love and lots of adventure.

Let him eat...cottage cheese?

Liam really enjoys feeding himself these days, and in fact demands it for the most part. He gives me a look that makes me think he is screaming in his head, "MOM, puree is SOOOOO below me--not for big boys!" His favorite things to eat are cottage cheese, pretzels, pieces of cheese, potatoes, broccoli, pirates bootie, veggie bootie and carrots. He definitely is my son because he LOVES to eat, and does so with a big grin and some chuckles. I had filmed this so Fred wouldn't miss out and thought you all would enjoy too. Check out the video clip for a glimpse of meal times in the O'Brien household. Bonus for Sabre--she gets to do the pre-clean up on the floors when we are done.

Dear Sir Liam the Cutest,

I see that you enjoy being a little boy having a blast over the food that your Mom served you. OMG, you are so cute! Just like Auntie C said - we can't wait to see you enjoy your 1st birthday cake soon. There will be plenty of yummy frosting just for you and we will stand ready to take picture of you enjoying that cake.

Tons of love and kisses to you,
