Swedish Meatballs and Uncle Peter!

Uncle Peter was doing some shopping at Ikea today, so we decided to meet up with him for lunch and a little stroll around that gigantic store. Graham had never been there before and seemed impressed by all the ceiling fixtures. Yes, he's still obsessed with ceiling lights and has to point out each one that appears above his stroller. What impressed me about our lunch today was Graham's apparent love for Swedish Meatballs....who would have guessed? Graham has become increasingly picky lately with his food. He only wants what he wants, and the rest is thrown on the floor. He couldn't get enough meatballs today though and I was happy to keep spooning them into his mouth! Once he started eating his lunch, I was amazed at how much this little guy could pack away....Swedish Meatballs, string cheese, hot dog, apple chunks, orange slices, and cucumber....all in one meal! I guess he's just making up for his very small meals the past few days. Hopefully, this is the return of the Graham who eats everything, but I won't be surprised when most of his dinner ends up on the floor tonight. I guess this is just what toddlers do.

Happy at Ikea

Uncle Peter was telling a funny story and Graham was trying to be part of the conversation. Peter and I were laughing and Graham was trying to fake laugh to be like us. It was pretty cute!


Enjoying one of the random Ikea toys.

I guess we should not be surprised that a boy named Olson likes Swedish meatballs.
