Introducing Cereal

One of the super-fun things we have been doing recently is feeding Nathan solid foods.  We started him with rice cereal, and he seemed to enjoy the novelty of it and did a good job opening his mouth and eating most of it.

The next few times we tried rice cereal though, he decided he didn't really love the taste.  (Look at that face!  Hilarious.)

He also did pretty well with the high chair and we were able to have our first ever family dinner!  

Then we started him on oat cereal, and he just nom nom nommed that stuff right up!  He has been eating really well, and didn't even mind rice cereal when we re-introduced it.  Hopefully he takes after his dad in the non-picky eater department!

Grandpa Thomas' Second Visit

Sorry for the delay in getting another Nathan post up.  I broke my computer (sad day) and I have also been swamped with work. I have some cute pictures to share with you today from Jesse's dad's second visit to see us Nathan this year. He took some cute ones of Nathan.

And then there are these seriously cute ones of Dave and Nathan.  You can definitely tell they're related!

Indian Summer Part 2

I am really loving We R Memory Keepers' Indian Summer line -- it is so New Mexican.  I used some more of it for these layouts of our family's visit last summer.  This first page was inspired by Stuck?! sketches' September sketch and Scrap our Stash challenge 30 (I used Leaves, Arrow patterned paper, a Yellow sticker, an Ecru brad, Ribbon, and a Striped brad).

I used C'est Magnifique's September sketch for this second layout of our trip to Sandia Peak and Madrid.

Here are the two layouts side by side.

Proof!

This week Nathan's teeth are sticking up more now and they are whiter so we were able to capture his first teeth on film.  See the little pearly whites?

If you look closely at this picture, you can see them sticking up: 

We have begun to brush his teeth in the evenings now, which he likes, and have also put him to bed in his crib for the first time!!!  Here are some more cute baby pics, just because.
