30 weeks!

6 month photos

A couple of weeks ago, Avery had her 6 month pictures taken once again by the fabulous Kelsey of K Photography & Design and since it was a gorgeous day, we were able to shoot out at Orchard Ridge Farms where I work! All of the photos are now uplohttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifaded on our Shutterfly page, but here are some of my favorites!

Hey! That's mine!

We caught our first glimpse of Avery & Foxxie "playing" tonight ... fighting over a water bottle!

28 weeks!

Food for Thought!

Solid (really more like very very runny) foods have been going well! Avery has now tried 5 things! Here's how we are introducing things to her - we are following instructions to try the same food once a day for 3 days in a row before introducing a new food - that way if she has a reaction, we will know exactly what food is not agreeing with her!

#1 - RICE CEREAL (boxed: Gerber) - ate very well ... literally no flavor so it went down well
#2 - PEAS (homemade: frozen peas+breastmilk) - loved seeing her green face! ate pretty well!
#3 - SWEET POTATOES (homemade: baked sweet potatoes+breastmilk) - NOT a fan! most adorable disgusted faces, had to really force it down!
#4 - APPLESAUCE (packaged: Gerber) - LOVED this!
#5 - BANANAS (homemade: bananas only) - LOVED these! i used my magic bullet, but they puree so runny that i didn't need to add any milk this time. She got so hyper & excited eating these!

27 weeks!

better late than never, right?! :)

just call me chef boyardee!

now that avery is starting foods, i decided to take a stab at making her baby food! not that i am a chef by any means, but i thought it would be fun to try, especially with more time on my hands. yesterday we attempted peas and sweet potatoes and i don't think i did too bad!
