Allie goes mobile...sort of

Allie has been growing up so fast. I don't even remember how she looked when she was born. I can only picture her now with her new chubby look. Anyways, she has been teetering on the edge of crawling for weeks now, and finally she's mobile, sort of. For the past couple weeks she has been getting on all fours, and rocking back and forth, but not really making any headway. But last Sunday, she hit another milestone when she took her first few steps crawling forward. Of course she was going for the remote, a hereditary trait she picked up from her mother. The best part is we caught it on video. Once I figure out how to get it uploaded, I would be happy to share it with ya'll. Since then she is getting better and better everyday. She's like a finely tuned sprint horse in that she's only good for one good run before she's pooped. We'll have to work on her endurance. She's still eating her baby food well. She pretty much as eaten everything except carrots. She even likes cold bananas. She is at grandma's today with pink eye.

In the meantime I leave you with a beautiful picture of my cosita linda in our front yard.

Get In My Belly

So... Allie is already 6 months. Man o Man.... Time does fly by... Well... I personally couldn't wait because I was getting so excited at the idea of being able to feed her "real" food. Enough already with the liquid formula diet. If she is anything like me... She will love food!!

Well.. with that said... Here are a few pictures to capture her eating adventures. Her first experience was with Sweet Potatoes... She gobbled that up right away. I wish I could describe the expression on her face when she first tasted it. She was a bit confused and then excited... Her legs started to kick and her face lit up. GIVE ME MORE!!!

The next was carrots.. that didn't go over so well. She is definitely no Easter Bunny. The squash is going okay. Aaahhh.. the joy of deciding what to give her next.. Don't know if we are going to do greens or go for some sweet stuff... Bring on the fruit!! (But hold the prunes)
