Solids

Ava tried rice cereal for the very first time tonight! She has been wanting to eat real food for a while now. We put her in the high chair while we eat dinner, and she would get SO mad. I would show her our food, and she would just start screaming because she wanted it so bad. We thought it would be ok to start feeding her rice since she will be 4 months tomorrow. She was a little unsure what to do with the cereal. It took her a little while to get used to the spoon, but by the end she seemed to know what to do. Here is a picture of her before she started eating:

(Look at that cute fuzzy hair!)

Ava has also been trying to roll over. She loves to roll on to her side, and alot of times she will twist and wiggle herself all the way around in a complete circle. She is growing up so fast, and we just love her so much!

Note to Self...

...Don't walk around in newly furnished bedroom with the lights off.

Story:

Well the kids have been pretty sick since last night. I was up most of the night with Nathan, who was hacking, crying, and throwing up due to the thickness of his phlegm. So there was a clothing change around midnight followed by bathing at 5 am along with changing of the bedding(not to mention the soothing and rocking in between). Basically I was up most of the night.

So a little bit ago I put Nathan in bed and walked in to our room to grab some chapstick. The lights were off and I was thinking of the things I needed to get done before bed. I walked out of the bathroom and SMACK right into the new dresser! It hurt SO BAD! I stubbed a few of my toes and scraped my arm and hand up. It took my a second to realize what I had hit. I felt so dumb! I blame my tiredness. It actually hurts to type so...The End
