While Omie was here...

Mr. Big partied it up!

He chowed down on lots and lots of yummy Michael's Bakery bread.

(a family tradition for all the Mitterholzer grandbabes and now great-grandbabes!)

He experienced the park and swings for the first time

(and was not too impressed!)

He played and watched lots of shows with Omie Om and even gave it up and fell asleep in her lap which is a very rare occurrence these days.

Only for his Omie!

And... while Omie was here, this is what I did.

I decided to try making Mr. Big's baby food instead of buying it.

He will eat ANYTHING so I decided that it was worth a try.

It took a few days of destroying my moms kitchen to get it all done

but it was well worth it! I have all of this and then some in my freezer and the best part is...

it only cost $45.00 for everything!

I have enough food to last me for months and a lot of it is stuff that good ol' Gerber doesn't have.

Call me crazy, but I am pretty darn happy about this!

All in all, it was wonderful (as always) to have Omie here. I miss her so much and wish that I could just pop on over for dinner all the time! I am so, so thankful to have such an amazing grandmother. She is my angel! My life has been so richly blessed by her and I hope that she will always remember what an incredible lady she is!

I love you Omie!

Thank you so much for all you do for me and for everyone around you!
