Addison started on "baby food" about a month ago and quickly moved on to the finger foods too (the ones for babies that pretty much dissolve in their mouths since she doesn't have any teeth). She is teeny tiny (in the bottom 10% in weight for her age at 6 months), so I pretty much let her eat as much as she wants, when it's meal time. Tonight we went with the squash and applesauce for her dining pleasure. She really loves the carrots and sweet potatoes and I'm glad to let her eat them in hopes she'll eat enough to put on some weight, but she's pretty orange, so I'm trying to cut back! Anyway, she was less than pleased with her selection tonight. In the middle of feeding her squash she opted for her thumb over the food...guess that's a pretty good hint that she's done. After trying to force the applesauce down her throat I gave her a Wagon Wheel cracker, I think she was still pretty hungry because she stuffed the WHOLE thing in her mouth at once. I had to take pictures of this, she looked pretty silly and quite uncomfortable, but determined to eat it that way! She finally succeeded with no coughing or choking at all!
You never know what Daddy has in store with he gets home! Tonight he decided we would put the pool in the front yard so the girls could play while we were able to enjoy a nice breeze and water all our plants. The girls had a great time playing with their My Little Ponies and Barbies in the pool! By looking at these pics you'd never guess that they both hated getting baths tonight...isn't it all playing in the water? Go figure, my little princesses not wanting to "ruin their hairdo's" that they worked on this afternoon:) The oldest two are quite the Divas, I wonder how Addison will turn out.
