Adventures of eating and sleeping

More New Food…

kristel - 6 March 2009

Daddy feeds me his favorite breakfast, applesauce-oatmeal, and I try out some yummy avocado.  I got it all over me and Mommy wonders if any of it is in my tummy.  So far, I like all the foods I’ve tried, but a few of them are really yummy:

banana – yummy
oatmeal – yummy
applesauce – yummy
squash
avocado
sweet potato – yummy

Applesauce Oatmeal is delicious!

Look, Daddy, I have my own spoon.

Is it me or is this cradle getting smaller?

kristel - 15 February 2009

Hey, Grandma Eileen, remember when we used to have to roll up a towel next to me in the cradle because there was so much extra room.  Looks like we are going to have to retire it for a while.

Okay, so after catching up with all the Christmas pictures, the 4 month pictures are finally here.  And next week will be picture time again!  How can that be?  These were taken the same night after a long plane ride home from Oregon.  Thomas is not very excited about picture time, so we gave up and went to bed.

I had a wonderful time with Gramma over Christmas vacation.  She took turns holding me over and over again and I giggled a lot with her and Grampa.

Family Christmas Pictures

We try to always take pictures under the tree at Christmas.  Thomas hasn’t quite figured out the camera yet.  He is laughing and smiling the whole time and as soon as you point that camera at him he stares at that red light.
