Solid food, car seats, and RAZORBACKS!
You are sitting in between my legs. We are watching the Razorback's play Alabama. This is your first Razorback game (we are in our living room), and you just finished your first big girl walk in your stroller without your car seat, and you just finished your first go at rice cereal! I have been so excited to try rice cereal. The last three nights you have pretty much woken up every hour...which is killing me. It is Saturday and you woke up for the day at 5:45am. We went to Lori Fast's rummage sale and picked up some things, and then killed time driving around until Daddy called letting us know he was awake...this has become our Saturday ritual. So once home, we all went for a stroll around the neighborhood. You in your stroller sans seat, and Ollie sans collar! You both did well. After the walk, we took a snooze. Usually you would snooze as long as I. However, today you would awaken every few minutes to nurse. Daddy wanted to wait until Wednesday, your fifth month birthday, to introduce solids...but I couldn't stand another sleepless night; so we decided to try today...your birthday weekend! So, I went to Woods supermarket, about two blocks from our house. I got rice cereal, and some coffee for me. I came home, you and Daddy were hangingadcz (you are typing too now) out. I got your cereal ready, using a measuring spoon, I fixed the cereal exactly according to the directions. I opened our new big girl bowls, and your spoon; I put your bow around your head, and picked out the perfect bib...we were READY! Daddy had the video ready, and I had the camera close at hand. We decided on the bouncy vs your high chair (bad idea) and away we went. Turns out the cereal was so runny, it looked just like milk...and you had just had a bottle with Daddy. Regardless...we took pics and videoed you slurping your first tastes of rice cereal. Long story short...you are now on my lap "drinking" your rice cereal from a bottle :)
