It is getting progressively harder to come up with things that mom can eat. For awhile we could give her finger foods that she could pick up or I could put the sandwich-or panini, her favorite, in her hand and she could eat it. Lately, however, she isn't quite sure what to do with it and I would find it in the covers later. SO have had to be creative since we don't always have the time needed to feed her especially in the mornings.
Her new favorite is yogurt "smoothie" it is just yogurt that is milked down so that it is drinkable...I have to say I think I might be making two in the mornings it is pretty tasty! I am home with a sick son today and that is what he is drinking too:)
The other concoction came from when all she wanted was hot chocolate I wanted to find a way to get a little more nutrition in there so I blended it up with some oatmeal. Hot Chocolate drinkable oatmeal???you say? Don't knock it til you try it!
Other than that it is business as usual. She seems a little more confused some days. I told her on Monday morning that school was starting up again for me and she said it was for her too--and last night while dave and I were talking to her we mentioned something about Dave's sister Holly and then when I asked her if she wanted another piece of cinnamon roll she took it and then handed it back behind her and told us she didn't want it but that we should give it to Holly.
Other times she seems quite together and her voice is clear.
