CEREAL TIME!!!

After many sleepless nights, due to a rumbly tummy, mommy and daddy were cleared to start feeding Miss Pris rice cereal! At first she was a little unsure as she looked at the spoon confused "How am I supposed to get THAT in HERE? Mo-om!!!" Then there was a screech, unsure if she was supposed to lap it up like a dog (a scenario tried and failed quite quickly), suck it like her bottle, or simply lean face first and hope it absorbed through osmosis. Eventually, though, we had success! Mia learned to provide a gaping hole with her mouth while mommy ever so gently placed/poured the cereal onto her little tongue...




Yipppee!
Mia's belly is finally full. She grins and kicks with joy, anticipating the next sweet bite that slowly turns her tummy from an empty black hole, to one happy little camper.


Oh sweet slumber. I missed you.





*Here's a cute little video of Mia and her new words and jokes that make her laugh.*

Hi Erin

I love how you told the story of Mia's introduction to rice cereal. What a gorgeous girl she is. Hopefully now you can all return to some uninterrupted sleep.

She is so absolutely adorable!!!!
Thank you so much for the words of encouragement. It really means a lot and I totally know what you mean about the weeks when I get nothing done. Makayla will always remember that the most. And that is what I need to focus on.
And I am soooo gonna make a weekly list instead of a daily one now! Thanks for the tip!
Keep the adorable pics of Miss Mia comin'!!! :)
