Supper time blues

Oh, the horror's of a tuna sandwich.

Finally, the good stuff, pears :)

Oh, the joys of training. Cara has hit a wonderful new stage of "choosing" what she wants to eat and what is disgusting. Everything seems to be the latter. We have started today with the training of eating what is on our plate. Wow, is this difficult! We started with a lovely tuna sandwish. It was NOT a favorite. She choked and sputtered on every bite. By the time we got done, she was at least somewhat opening her mouth for the bite. She still cried, but she ate it. She wanted to spit out each and every bite as well, but we kicked that pretty quickly....a little snip here, a little snip there....she finally realized that eating partially chewed bites was gross and she stopped spitting it out. Her reward for eating was pears. She hasn't had pears yet, and I was expecting her to object, but she loved them. I am really hoping tomorrow goes a little better!

Cara and Barry






Singing...she loves to sing!

Sipping her bottle. She loves to just take her sweet time with this!

So one of Blake's airmen got Cara a Barry the Bee stuffed animal. She likes him now, but when she first saw him, he scared her to death!! She wouldn't touch him. I am glad she got over it. She now loves him and all is well!

Teething

What a night.....she just didn't feel well becuase of her little teeth. She had a temp of 102 and was just cranky. She is luckily feeling much better today! I am very thankful.

Playing

She is so funny how she plays! She will quite literally pull all of her toys out and surround herself with them. She works hard on this, and then she just sits and plays. Everything she wants is within arms reach.

Swimming


We had a fabulous time checking out the new pool on base. Cara had a blast! She didn't cry at all. I was psyched when I saw they provided infant life vests, as we just havn't had an opportunity to get one yet. I am excited to go back again!! I am going to look into the Mommy and Me swim classes, if they have them. I think Cara would love it (I would too!). She just kicked and kicked. She didn't have a problem if I let her float by herself, either. It was great. We can't wait to go again!

New Pj's




These are her new pj's. I think they make her look like a Dr. Seuess character. She's so cute!


A new look


We tried piggy tails in the back of her hair today. Some day, the front of her hair will be long enough to fit in the same ponytail as the back of her hair. She's been in such a fabulous mood today. I just adore her!
