Hoos Had A Good Week?

Charlottesville has a lot to be proud of this week! If you are 0% interested in sports you might not have heard that the University of Virginia basketball team won the NCAA National Championship! After returning from our trip on Friday, we hosted a few friends on Saturday to watch the game. Birch has his friend Harrison over, but they were more interested in rattles than the TV. B also had a blowout in his UVA onesie just minutes before the game started!

We ordered sushi (my first time having it since pregnancy!) and gobbled it down.

this !

On Sunday I killed my legs with 1.5 games of women’s soccer. After a week of doing practically nothing, I was SO sore on Monday!

We made burgers on the grill with asparagus for a casual family dinner.

At five months, we’re slowly starting to give Birch tastes of soft foods. Despite me singing The Avocado Song nonstop, I don’t think he was that into avocado!

Birch’s other new thing? Flipping himself over (quite violently I might add!) in the middle of a diaper change to try to reach the wipes himself. I feel like we’re getting a strong preview of the twos already!

I’ve been craving smoothies all week, probably since the weather has been warm. My favorite Daily Harvest smoothie is the Blueberry Hemp! Topped with some local granola we bought at Whole Foods.

Thomas and I stayed up late watching the championship on Monday night. B woke up at 2 and 5 that night, so I was dragging on Tuesday! We almost took Mazen to greet the team’s bus, but much to our disappointment he was way more interested in doing a lemonade stand on Tuesday so we didn’t push it.

I ordered the shrimp + orzo salad from Plenty and added some homemade dressing and pita chips for crunch. It made such a great quick lunch! (I love my marble folders!)

We had teriyaki salmon with broccoli and a side of brown rice we made at home for dinner on Tuesday.

    haha! love the funny Birch updates. Especially the look of disappointment after tasting avocado. I’ve never seen that baby look “meh” about anything!

    0% interest in sports? I have NO concept. As a UVa fan from birth, this is a BIG deal and a really long time coming. I haven’t stopped smiling!

      Haha! I’m so happy for the team! I’ve had several opportunities to see them this week and haven’t taken advantage and now I’m regretting it! Did you see they were behind the bar bartending at Boylen?!

        No! That’s awesome. I grew up in Lynchburg but live out of state now. One of my earliest memories as a child was running into someone’s knee while walking through U Hall, looking up and it was Ralph Sampson. As Thomas can tell you, UVa can lose in the most painful ways possible. Every bit of luck they had during this tourney they deserved 100 times over!

    We tried avocado as a first food with my LO too and she actually HATED it! She loves it now at 1 year old! 🙂

    Birch is just the cutest thing. Of course, it’s been well-established that Mazen is a handsome little boy.
