Josh celebrated another year closer to 30 on Sunday. To mark his big day, Sam informed us it was time to try some solid food. We have been watching him for several weeks now-- actually, Sam has been watching US for several weeks now-- at the dinner table. Whenever there is food around, he gazes at us intently and curiously watches our every move. At his 4 month check up last week, we discussed solids with the pediatrician. Because of Sam's curiosity, we decided to let him try some rice cereal. It was a lot of fun! Sam knew what to do with the spoon and he would open up wide for every bite. However, he was unsatisfied with how slow Mommy was in getting the next bite to his mouth. He would scream and squeal in anticipation of that next spoonfull! Josh said, "Great, now you've created a monster..." I think that Sam is still a little confused by the spoon; it's a big change from nursing to spoon feeding. He tries to nurse the spoon sometimes which is funny.
My Aunt P and Mom were also here this weekend. They made Josh a real, homemade, honest to goodness, banana pudding pie with meringue on top. It's not Josh's favorite, but he said it was still really good.
Josh and I went for a walk Sunday afternoon around Big Spring Park. It was a gorgeous day to spend together. Mom and Aunt P took Sam to Bennett's Nursery so Josh and I had some time together without the baby.
Happy Birthday, Daddy!

Funny how he didn't really appear to be hungry until after the first bite of cereal, then he was like an empty pit...ravenous! He truly enjoyed it, didn't he? He'll be wanting meat and potatoes before long...or banana pudding1
