Dear Diary

I can walk!

It would be extremely hard to pick which one of the Pixar movies so far is the best. However, gun to our heads, we would probably pick Monsters Inc. If Aurora watches this movie later and doesn´t enjoy it enormously (which is impossible) she will be put up for adoption. Greater guy love than between Sully and Mike only exists between Turk and J.D. And if she doesn´t like Scrubs we also will need to have a talk but let´s not get ahead of our selfs, that´s way in the future.

Oh my goodness!! You thought the page about how your dad was the original hipster was funny - look at this one!

I must have laughed about half an hour straight!

Probably my favorite: "The dueling horse sweater"

But since this is a baby themed blog, these are also great:

I´m having a hard time thinking of things to give the babies for breakfast. Obviously a banana is good. Matt always lets Aurora snack on dry cornflakes (not that that would be all there was). Since I´m still not so sure about joghurt that´s another typical breakfast item off the list. I offer her a piece of bread with spread or cream cheese on it from time to time but she just crumbles it apart. It definitely has to be something that requires very little preparation from my side in the morning and it has to be something she can eat by herself since she doesn´t enjoy getting fed that much anymore.

So the other day it just came to me! Whole wheat cheese muffins. Broken into halves or quarters she can eat them herself, they´re sugarless and it makes me look so much better than if I just threw her a slice of dry bread, which let´s face it wouldn´t be that different. But this way if someone is watching it looks like I put in all this effort ;-) 

In all seriousness though: they make a great snack. They are perfect pick-nick material and you can cut them in half and spread them with something or add something along the lines of salami slices which turns them into a full on lunch. When it comes to the kids I just love having the security of knowing exactly what the things I give them to eat are made out of, obviously baking yourself ensures that. I find they´re a great bridge between what your kids will eat and you´ll enjoy too.

Dear Diary

This is my daycare friend Noemi. Just thought I should introduce her since I´ve been spending 4 days a week with her ever since I was 4 months old. So there you have it. Shepard doesn´t need introducing but she´s there too. In your face!

With a movie obsessed dad like Matt it´s obvious that Aurora can´t just have any old music box. So she has this one from 'Spirited away'. Matt brought it back from Japan for his future child way before she was born. How romantic is that. She actually probably won´t ever really care about it but I like looking at it.
