Mac and Cheese

Tonight Joaquin got his first taste of mac and cheese. He is still allergic to milk, so I made him mac and cheese using soy milk and vegan cheese. He LOVED it! Maybe this weekend we'll make him some grilled cheese using vegan cheese.

Joaquin is walking all over, almost running now. He can walk down the hall without sitting down. He was started in a new class at day care and loves it. Now he can go outside at daycare :)

Practice Cake

For Joaquin's smash cake we decided to make a replica of an Xbox controller since he enjoys playing with it so much. I wanted to do a practice run to try making the cake and also to make sure that Joaquin didn't have any allergic reaction to the cake or icing. Here is my first attempt at his cake next to the real thing.


And here is what Joaquin did to the cake.

4th of July Weekend

Joaquin playing with the dishwasher. He likes to stick toys in there when we have it open.

Walking with grandma. He's still not walking on his own, but he loves to walk with us.

At his first Indians' game.

Enjoying some watermelon at the game.

He's in a good mood here, but he only made it through the 4th inning before having a meltdown.
