Success in carrots.

By golly she likes the carrots! We've tried beef, rice, tomato, potato, peas... alas!!

Diaper Time!

Fun on the change table...

Peas & Apples

Mom is starting to experiment with Atalie... this one actually went okay. We tried blending ground beef, rice & tomato sauce last week - she grimaced, spit it out and then actually started gagging and coughing as though it were her last breath...sheesh. Then we tried mashed potatos - not quite as bad but she still refused to eat it. So yesterday and today it's been peas & apples...sounds a little nasty, but really it tastes okay(!) - nice and sweet the way she likes it. Good grief. "What in the blazes of bad food is this?!" "Okay, I think I can do it." "Mushy green food is kinda fun!" "Okay, I've had enough." Atalie cuddles with Mom in the morning:) Hmm... a candid moment ;)

lost 6inches!

BEFORE AFTER

One tired pumpkin

Atalie refused to have her second nap today, despite motherly advise that she would be very very tired if she didn't. Well, Daddy sat down on the couch with her after giving her some pablum and her eyes closed 30 seconds later... I guess she's too young to tell, "I told you so!" Besides, she doesn't look like she really cares at this point. Hm. Oh well. I won't complain about a sleeping baby!!

Thanksgivin'

So this Thanksgiving turned out to be a smashing success in everyone's books! While we enjoyed turkey dinner with our friends, Atalie enjoyed the decor... this pumpkin was carved out to be a candleholder, not food... Krazy Kendra was up at 6:30am to make turkey preparations - her 1st turkey dinner! Tasted pretty good. But seriously - what a ton of work! A few pics from the week previous to the weekend: Atalie is all bundled up to venture out into the cold crisp Autumn air! Her Great-Grandma would be proud to see that the little outfit she once made has been passed down to be worn once again:) I bet it never stops being adorable!
