We have been keeping busy with LT, visiting mom, house projects and just everyday living. Where should I begin...
Mom is doing great! She is cancer free after surgery and is recovering nicely. She even starts back at work Monday. She will start with half days but I think she is anxious to have a schedule again. She has had a few bumps in the road but has powered through them!
Baby Girl is now 6 months old! We were supposed to go in for her well child check but got rescheduled for next week. So we will have to be back with her stats then! She is certainly getting bigger every day! She is so fun to be around, I just soak her in as much as possible! We get to spend lunch time together and she is so happy, it's the highlight of my day! She is finding her voice and squeals all the time! She giggles on a regular basis and is making all sort of vowel sounds. Vuue Vuuuh is my favorite!
We now take walks in the big girl stroller. We are so lucky to have such great friends, one gave us their baby jogger which LT loves since she can look out the whole time while we walk.
This week we decided to try some real food solids. I read somewhere that yellow and orange veggies are better to start with than greens so I decided to first start with a sweet potato. I simply washed a sweet potato and popped it into the crock pot on low for 5 hours at lunch time. Once I got home from work it was ready. Into the food processor it went with a little milk and it blended nicely. LT was a great sport and tried it with smiles. After a few bites she decided she wasn't so sure about it and gave a sour face but still accepted more. I would say the first try was a success since more of it landed in her belly then spit out!
Second try was this evening, sweet potato again. Again, she did great! She was happy to eat and really wanted to grab the bowel herself! Check out the video below the picture for a sneak peak!
