Real food, babystyle

( Read bottom paragraph 1st) However, since Brian left for Canada on the 11th, we've developed a different system. As long as I keep the food coming fast enough, she keeps her hands under the table and plays with the tablecloth. So far squash and carrots are winners. She lunges for the spoon when I put it in front of her mouth. We will try green beans and peas next week. She also likes to share my bananas and the occasional Ritz cracker crumb.
Sarah has been eating cereal since October and most of it stays on her face and the bib with the few exceptions of when her hands have escaped. Usually I held her while Brian would feed her.

Halloween


So I'm still figuring out when and what to write. Sarah was a bunny for Halloween. We went to some nearby ward members and she had a blast. She loves being outside and seeing new faces. Every time I open the door she squeals and swings her arms and legs to express her excitement. She doesn't care what the temperature is, she wants to be outside. She is even excited to get in her car seat now because it means we are going somewhere.
We go to story hour at the library once a week and she loves to see all the other children. We spend more time looking at the other kids than listening to the stories. Yesterday Sarah and another boy her age started laughing together. One would laugh and then the other. They lasted almost 5 minutes. It was hilarious. I wish I had been able to video it.
