Rice cereal

So we started solids on Monday. A little bit of rice cereal never hurt anyone. I wonder why that is something you only eat as a baby? Every other food seems to transition into something we eat during adulthood but not rice cereal? She seemed to like it well enough and so far no reactions. Next week............... Yams! That will be a fun one to clean up after!

Besides starting solids Faith has been very busy. She spent last weekend with Grandpa David and Grandma Donna. She was gone from Mommy and Daddy for a total of 30 hours. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be but boy was I happy to get that little bug back!!!! Egan and I took full advantage of the baby free days with a bike ride, a run, a hike, a night out to dinner, a movie, a morning walk and best of all A NAP! I haven't had a nap in months!

Back to the little pumpkin. Her personality is coming out in full force. So far she is a pretty happy munchkin with a beautiful smile. She was sleeping through the night but seems to be waking up about once a night now to eat. My guess is that we are going through a growth spurt. Her 6 month appointment is in two weeks so we will know then. Speaking of 6 months she also has an appointment at Children's Hospital to check on the two heart murmurs she was born with. Praying that those have all but disappeared. Will keep you posted.

  1. Ha ha! I love how she chomps! Even before the spoon can get to her mouth, she's already "chewing"! What a cutie. I think she'll be really good at taking to solids. Good luck with the yams!

    P.S. Crossing our fingers that the heart murmurs are gonzo.
