Day 247 :: neiii

We took Aiden around the corner to a horse ranch because he walks around the house saying "neeiii" all day. He was in love... and so am I. Can we get it as a pet?

Aiden found his blanket in the laundry basket and the rest was history.

If I left the room he would probably fall asleep in there

Day 239 :: Lola

Lola lives across the street. She's our neighbors dog and when Aiden sees her he always points and says Lola. In a very cute and baby voice. It's even cuter that he is holding his Elmo doll.

Day 234 :: Monday

No photo today. I took this couple of days ago to brag about my rice crispy creation. SOooo yummy! All you need is 4 cups of rice crispy cereal. Heat 1 cup of almond butter, vanilla, agave nectar and pour into rice crispies. Fold some chocolate chips. Put in parchment paper and make sure all corners are covered. Put in fridge for a few hours.

Day 233 :: Sunday

I hate Sunday nights. 5 more days until the weekend... eehhh

I took a few quick shots today while Aiden was playing on top of our patio table. I think he was super excited that he didn't have a jacket on! lately it's been a nightmare trying to put a jacket on that boy. Summer cannot come quick enough!

Day 232 :: Park

Such a great day today. But it didn't start too good. It started with a major tantrum which included pounding on the floor, throwing toys and crying like i've never seen before. This all followed by a much needed nap and thankfully the little terror woke up feeling much better. We went to the NYC children's museum and then to central park with a few friends.

Day 229 :: Yumm

I'm putting my camera on the back burner. It's been such a challenge feeding Aiden due to his allergies. We now suspect a fish allergy on top of all his others.

He's allergic to Milk, Eggs, Peanuts, Soy, Sesame

We suspect new allergies to Chicken, Beef, Fish, Avocado, blueberries, beans

Day 221 :: Happy Valentines Day

I had this big plan to take valentines day photos of Aiden all in kisses and red and tattoos but he is still sick so i ended up jazzing up some older photos.

Happy Valentines Day

Day 212 :: tattoo

Jared has the fever -eeeh! so he's stuck in the bedroom all day while I played with the little man downstairs. What better time to do a little valentines day photoshoot than today? So i slapped a fake tattoo on his arm and tried to take some photos and then i remembered -a 15 month old kid doesn't understand when someone says pose this way or that way. Well, another photoshoot a big fail. here are the few i was able to save.

Bad boy in the making

Day 207 :: Monday

Food photography is hard. For some reason it feels harder than taking photos of a very active 15 month old. I made this Mac and "cheese" dish for Aiden (dairy and egg free, of course). I've been really experimenting with Aiden friendly dishes that are milk/eggs/peanut/sesame/soy free and wanting to document it all but it's not as easy as i thought. The cooking is easy. The photos are not. I just need to play more.

These are probably the best cookies/brownies i have ever tasted. I had to alter the recipe just a tad (instead of soy yogurt, i used coconut yogurt and butter had to be soy and milk free). I can't wait to make them again! yumm!
