first foods

"Robro" had his first stab at real "food" today (aka a little rice cereal with a lot of milk)--it's basically soup, people--not that exciting, but for a momma it's cause for celebration!


i'm celebrating his food-eating accomplishments because:
1.  maybe he'll start sleeping through the night (even though all the docs say it's a myth)
2.  he's growing up (it's a milestone, you know)--i'm celebrating and hating this at the same time
3.  he's just too cute with food all over those chubbo cheeks!


here's a comparison of Sister and Brother eating their first foods:

they must be related,....they both give me that "i'm over it, mom" look.

and just a few more for the cute factor....

 

i love recording these little memories......

and especially like recording them with my new camera!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yes, the hubs surprised me with an early mother's day gift.....a nikon d3100 with two lenses!  

i have no idea how it works, but even on "auto" it takes a million times better pictures than the old "point and shoot."

here's a few to prove my point:

NEW Camera:
