I can't believe how quickly the past few months have flown by - I started my daughter on solids on Monday, and it feels like we are entering a whole new phase of babyhood!
She loves her cereal and I got all the first messy, uncertain moments on camera - it was a little tricky spoon feeding with my right hand and snapping pics with my left!
I was given a high chair by my sister in law for my baby shower, and at the time thought I'd only be needing it in an incredibly long time. Wow, how those 5 months flew by (well, at least in hindsight they flew. Sitting in the nursery at 2 in the morning with a crying 8-week old seemed to drag on forever...)
So today I am off to search for a steamer, and a cookbook for little ones. And soon I will be steaming and puree-ing butternut and carrots and sweet potatoes.
In other news, it is only six weeks until spring day (1 September) today! I can't wait. And as a sign of the impending spring, I killed my first spider today.
It may seem like a strange combination, but after years of apartment living in various cities, last spring/summer was my first in a ground floor house surrounded by a garden. And wow, did we get a lot of spiders!
Seeing as I was alone this morning, I had to suck it up and kill the horrible thing all on my own (squashing it with one of my husband's trainers, and not dirtying one of my own shoes, of course!)
I must admit I made some seriously girly squeeling noises while doing the deed, but got it done none the less. Yuck.
