Facebook Pics

I can't upload pictures on Facebook without thinking of all of you who don't have an account on there.  So here's what I just added, the latest happenings around here...

David taught Avery how to type.  She had so much fun pushing the keys and seeing them pop up on the screen.  She did this for at least 30 minutes!




I've figured out what it takes to get Kinley to eat, let her do it herself.  The pediatrician saved me on this one when she suggested it.  Here's Kinley eating boiled/diced squash.





Here are the girls just relaxing around the house.

Kinley - Scooting, Teeth, Food and Laughing

Kinley's not crawling yet, but there's no rush because she's figured out how to do this:



Remember those teeth I told you about?  Here they are, can you see them?:



Last Tuesday, Kinley had her 6 month dr. appointment and shots (weighs 15 lbs. 4 oz).  I brought up her issue with food and the pediatrician recommended I try teething biscuits.  She said that some children just don't like being fed with a spoon, they prefer to do it themselves.  I was hesitant to give her something so sweet, but if she thought it'd help I was willing to try.  So I gave her a whole wheat biter biscuit, and she loved it! (of course she did, it's essentially a cookie!)  It was the first time she gladly ate.  So I'm taking her lead and introducing things she can eat by herself.  Have you seen these:

You can fill them with just about anything, so this week we'll be introducing do-it-yourself cooked veggies.  :)  Friday I was eating a pickle and Kinley looked interested so I gave her a taste.  To my surprise she loved it!

**she kept biting my finger with those teeth you just saw

And I'll leave you with this - watch this video and you're guaranteed a smile.  (all I'm doing is snapping my fingers...)
