Yay for Green Beans!

Jade loves green beans! Like mother like daughter. Benjie fed her this time, and she couldn't get the spoon in her mouth fast enough!

Another Sweet Potato Surprise!

Unfortunately, the sweet potatoes have not agreed with Jade. She got a little bum rash. She liked the flavor though, and she understands the whole eating thing. We are moving to green beans next.

Our new Ergo baby carrier arrived yesterday. I can't wait to try it while we are out and about. It takes most of her weight off, so it is easier on my back. Ben likes it too.

Sweet Potato Surprise!

Jade's first meal went surprisingly well! No fuss, no mess (well it was smeared all around her mouth and nose). The first time I put the spoon in her mouth, she hesitated for a few seconds and then (slurrppp!) down the sweet taters went. Eventually, she was grabbing the spoon and trying to do it herself. She only had a few bites though and then got bored and stopped swallowing. Gonna do it all again tomorrow...

First post

I have decided to start this blog as an electronic baby journal. It is for family and friends only. I hope everyone will enjoy reading about Jade's new tricks and discoveries!

On the 15th, Jade went to the Doctor for her 6 month wellness exam. She is 18# 6 oz and 27 inches long. We finally get to start solids! We will be starting with sweet potatoes hopefully tomorrow. I need to make sure I have batteries for my camera because I know this will be picture worthy, and you all know Jade can't do anything without me taking a photo of her!
