It has been a busy week for Miss. Hannah. For starters she is feeling much better. The fever only lasted one day and her runny nose is almost gone. This is great news because she can get her shots next week and she has been eating well again. It also meant that she got to eat rice cereal! What a learning experience. I don't know about you, but rice cereal is considered a 'solid' in baby terms and additionally, when I think cereal I think a bowl and spoon. So silly me, I was picturing a texture that resembled oatmeal. I was wrong. When a baby first starts eating 'solids' aka rice cereal the ratio of formula to rice is that of which creates a texture equal to milk. It is completely liquidy. However, Drs. recommend you give it on a spoon so that we did and she LOVED IT! See pics below...she instantly had a big smile. However, I quickly decided that it would take far too long to spoon feed the liquidy substance so for now I am cheating and giving it through a bottle. She gets it one time a day. THey say this is bad because it's important for them to learn to use a spoon, but I will try again at 5 months when you can make it a bit thicker. Also in the works this week, was babysitting by Gramps. Hannah loves her Gramps and I think she will share his love for music. He is very good with her and would patiently stand by the 'magic lamp' with her whenever she needed it. The third exciting event is that Hannah found her feet. It's really funny because she loves to pull on her toes. I am really looking forward to my first Mother's day and I'm grateful for all the mothers out there in my life that have been role models for me. I hope all of your days are great as well.
