Persistence (aka One Track Mind)


Scene: Walking on Walnut Street. Avery, and Avery's Mom and Dad

Mom: Avery, what do you want for lunch?
Avery: Macaroni.
Mom: Ok, we'll go home and make macaroni.
Avery: Macaroni.
Mom: OK, Boo. Oh, look at the car, Avery!
Avery: Macaroni.
Dad: We're almost home.
Avery: Macaroni.
Mom: Ok, we're close.
Avery: Macaroni
Dad: Avery, what else can you say?
Avery: Macaroni.

Brief period of silence.

Avery: Macaroni, macaroni, macaroni, macaroni, macaroni, macaroni.

...the entire rest of the way home. He was very calm and patient. He just really wanted macaroni.

Oh, and mark the date. Avery asked for an ate uncooked broccoli today. Maybe it's not that he doesn't like vegetables, just that we gave up trying too early.

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.

Galloping and Pumpkin Rides

Image
Updates: 1. Avery has learned how to gallop. He calls it skipping, and he has been doing it all around the living room, street, park, store... since yesterday afternoon. Everywhere. 2. Avery asked Walker, "What alphabet does your name begin with?" 3. I asked Avery what we are going to do tomorrow, and he said, "We are going to get some hay and ride on a pumpkin!" He's very excited, although he seems to have it switched around a bit.

A New Food Every Three Days...

Image
If you were to try a new food every three days for about a year, don't you think you'd get to the point where you had to be really creative to find something new? With combinations of ingredients, knowing that you have tried one dish, you would think that you'd exhaust the possibilities. Well, we've been new foods like this for some time now, and every time I go to the grocery or Farmer's Market, I come back with something new for Avery. Ritz crackers were introduced today! Chive cream cheese was on the menu a few days ago. This evening, we combined the two for Ritz cracker and chive cream cheese fiesta. Avery hogged down seven crackers piled high with cream cheese, had a huge piece of extra sharp cheddar, and some berry applesauce. This was all washed down with a huge bottle of organic whole milk, which friend Jeanna says, "tastes like fresh cut grass and ice cream." I am going to try to make a list of Avery's favorite foods : Veggies -sw...
