Push pop!

When Mommy is not around ..

Staking independence!

He was rebelling the bottle!
We went through several weeks of experimenting with other bottles and sippy cups. Ms. Soudie from school decided to try putting him in his chair... Look what we found out?

3.5 years! "Mulan!"

First time behind the wheel!

9.5 months; army crawling; loving my home made puréed fruits, veggies, chicken, brown rice, and soft finger food.

Here is his first time behind the wheel!

He is doing a lot of army crawling around the house!

Useful Parenting and Baby sites

http://www.whattoexpect.com I like the weekly emails

http://www.gerber.com/public/ (interactive meal planning)  I make our own baby food but the Dr. tells us to reference this site to ensure we are on par with how much babies should be eating. But I find that you have to be realistic with what your baby can eat vs what's suggested serving wise. Also, sign up on all of these related sites to get free samples/coupons.

http://www.mamapedia.com/  Local forums which help provide local references from mommies in your area and more

http://wholesomebabyfood.momtastic.com/  Where I get a lot of my ideas regarding meals

Army crawling

I am looking at the daycare webcam and it tickles me to witness, for the first time, little brother doing his new "army crawl" skills!  He currently has 2 bottom teeth and loving his solides!

Outdoor fun! Summer 2011

It has been a brutal Dallas summer.
This week we celebrated our 10 yr wedding anniversary!

The cooler temperatures is bringing all of the neighborhood kids to the park!

At 9 months, little bro has grown 2 bottom teeth and successfully doing the army crawl!

Big Sis is now in Pre-K 1, in Big girl gymnastics, and still taking Emlers swimming lessons !

Exhausted from swimming at Hawaiian Falls

Lil Bro is exhausted from swimming at Hawaiian Falls. It was our first time taking the kiddos to a water park.

Big Sis has been taking swimming lessons at Emlers and she has no fear of the water.

We highly recommend Emlers.

Now that he's older than 8 months I plan to try edamame, broccoli, and tofu soon. They are harder to digest for babies younger than 8 months.
