Look Who's Pushing!

Dear Stroller,

Last week your Grandpa Jack got your a cute pink stroller to practice walking with. I though you would love to play with the toys on it and put your baby in it, and eventually you may walk with it. Mommy was wrong again...it wasn't five minutes after they had it put together that you were walking all the way across the room pushing it! Your face was funny, you were excited and maybe a little scared. A week later, you love to crawl over to your stroller, stand up, and push away. Now we have to teach you how to go in reverse, you'll hit a wall and just keep pushing. :)

Love,

Look Mom, I Can Feed Myself!

Dear Solid Food Champ,

Over the last month we have moved to more solid foods that you can feed yourself and you LOVE it. It doesn't matter if it's a yummy cookie (organic whole wheat teething biscuit) or peas, if you can feed yourself you love it. We still feed you some purees after you feed yourself to make sure you get enough to eat. When you are "all done" you tell us by rubbing your food in your hair (good thing bath time is right after dinner). We think it's really funny when we undress you to put you in the tub how many "stowaways" from dinner fall on the bathroom floor.

In the pictures you are eating carrots, peas, and avocado. Then I gave you a little pureed blueberries. You also like watermelon, a little deli turkey and you favorite, puffs.

We just started meat at 9 months (little pieces because Daddy thinks puree meat is gross) and we are going to try some yogurt.

Love,
  Chef Mom and Dad
