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...)

She's so cute! I LOVE the video of her laughing! I enjoyed the last blog you posted too of befunky.com. I'll have to check that out soon. See you in a few weeks!
I love the video of little naked Kinley laughing! haha....and I can't believe how much she liked the pickle! too funny. Someone gave me those net things for food, but I never really used it with Adriana - that's great that you figured out how to get her to eat though! I would have never thought it was just because she wanted to do it herself... she's getting too big too fast :( Can't wait to see you (and her!) tomorrow!
