Gooey Faced Arabella

Arabella had her first bite of rice cereal this week. She seems to like it, and knows what she's supposed to do, so on we go! Of course, the consistency was nearly liquid, and for the first feeding I used my finger, so it wasn't too hard to figure out! A few days later, I used a silicone spoon and she opened up wide when it came dripping towards her. I think we'll try either apples or bananas next. It's so fun to see the expressions she makes.Sorry, I don't have any of those pictures with the food all over her face. So far, she has proven to be quite the tidy eater.

Woo Hoo! Its so great when they start eating- especially if you are nursing. Then someone else can finally feed baby (Cameron was excited to finally be able to feed Apollo). By the way, your hair looks so cute! Did you put red in it? I love it!

Hi Rory, Thanks! I didn't put red in my hair. I just cut it. I think it must be the picture.

Hooray for Baby B! She's becoming such a big girl! I can't wait to give her props in person :) Only 67 days to go!

You totally remind me of your mom in this one. Is it hard to transition to solids?

I suppose it depends on how you do it. We are taking it really slow and it has been really easy. Tammy has helped me out a lot, though, as has Dr. Sears! ;-)
