Dear Growing Girl [20 Weeks]

Dear Ains,
Just like Momma mentioned, we did end up giving you some "food" this week! [Fear not, the term food is used quite loosely! There's lots of delicious things to come!] You did very well with the rice cereal even though I completely disregarded the directions! One part cereal to three parts milk?! Ha! That consistency was thinner than your spit up! You're a champ and can handle more than that, so it was more like three parts cereal to one part milk! Still the same ratio. Close enough, right?! Just don't tell my students we can mix up those ratios! :) So you had a few days of cereal and since we had a couple sweet potatoes and got a new blender for Christmas, we decided to make some Sweet Potato puree for you too. You seemed to really like it as well! Way to go girlie! I'm excited to introduce all kinds of concoctions for you in the future!



This weekend we also went out to Grandma & Grandpa Massie's because you aunt to be was visiting for the day. Now baby girl, you have officially met all of Papa and my immediate family! [Sadly, I forgot to get my camera out for this meeting so we'll have to wait until next time!] With Grandma Massie's surgery, you haven't been out there as much, so when you are, you really brighten up the day! We traced your lil' hand on Grandma's cast with your cousins prints and you played a bit of peek-a-boo--one of your new favorites guaranteed to generate giggles!

One last note, Friday morning, Momma was fortunate to have a snow/ice/windy frigid day off from school. So as the three of us slowly woke--one of my favorites!-- you were laying in the crook of my shoulder on my arm. You then turned your head towards me and blew raspberries in my armpit. A bit gross? Perhaps. A lot funny? Definitely! You made better gas noises in my armpit than I can! [Papa will have to be the one to teach you to make gas noises in your armpit!]

Love you princess eating machine!
