Mommie's notes

BIG NEWS!!!:
Libby started making word-like noises last night!! She has said both Da-da and Ma-ma amongst other combinations. It is sad to have been waiting to hear her call me and have her do it only when she is crying not wanting to go to sleep!! Rocky said that she said Da-da and when he got up close to see if she meant Daddy, she smiled at him and said Dada again!! Lucky Daddy

The girls are getting the hang of this high-chair, eating "solid" foods thing... Mel is learning to keep food in her mouth and Libby is learning to like eating. The enjoyment has never been a problem for Mel... she grabs your hands and pulls the spoon in, and flails allher limbs if the next bite is not forthcomming! Libby was not thrilled about this eating thing but has rather suddenly started to not only like eating but to eat neatly and to chew up and down! It is really cute!
Did you notice BOTH girls Have their right foot proped up??? Taking after their Daddy already, feet up, laid back.....

We are making the food for the girls, and this was the first time we ground our own cereal. This one was millet. It rather looked like one of those "tornado in a bottle" things....
(Rocky's note: so far the girls have tried: processed rice cereal, millet, oatmeal; pear (AKA Baby crack as the girls go gaga over it everytime we serve it),avacado, sweet potato,banana, mango; and tomorrow we try butternut squash.)




Yeah, Mel is into this whole eating thing.....







Ahhhhhh... a good meal completed, life is good!
