Chicago

Last weekend we took a trip to Chicago.  Daddy has some friends from college living there, and he thought it was about time that he show Mommy the Windy City.  We had a lot of fun!  For the first two nights we stayed with Jenny & Mike, and their two kids Molly and Juliana.  We also met up with Rick and Becca several times, with their daughter, Jillian.  We had so much fun!

Mommy and Daddy said I did great on the airplane ride.  So now they are ready to take me to Hawaii next weekend.

Eating Solids!

Two days ago I had my first taste of solid food!  Mommy and Daddy decided to start with avacado (which is surprising since Mommy doesn't like avacado at all...but I guess she doesn't want me to pick up on her bad food habits!).  It went really well...the first bite I was really unsure...I've had nothing but Mommy's milk and formula since I was born so it was definitely a different sensation.  But by bite number 2 I was hooked! 

Now I get avacado for a few more days, and then I get to move onto a new food (I think it will be oatmeal next).  Daddy took a video of me eating the food for the first time, but we are currently having some technical difficulties getting it uploaded.  We'll update this blog entry as soon as we figure it out.  In the meantime, here are some still pictures that Daddy took.  Can wait for the world of different foods that awaits me now!


Update 10/9/10 7:52PM: Technical difficulties resolved!  We now have the video uploaded to YouTube!  Scroll to the bottom of this blog post to find the video.  Enjoy!

Rolling Over

Wow, has it really been a full month since our last post?  We have been seriously delinquent in posting photos -- and it's hasn't been due to lack of activity, either!  Grandma and Papa visited in September and I got to spend lots of bonding time with them.  And Mommy and I have been enjoying our last month together before she goes back to work.  That's right -- she made the decision to go back to work part-time, and she starts next week.  I'm a little sad that Mommy and I can't continue to spend every day together, but am also happy that it means I'll gets lots of time with Nona.

We promise to post more pictures soon from September, but in the meantime, here is a video that Daddy took of me rolling over.  I've gotten really good at it now!  Mommy and Daddy can no longer leave me even for a minute because I'll end up on the other side of the room!
