You're finally getting used to rice cereal now, and let me tell you, it was not an easy transition. You were definitely not a fan to begin with, but your Daddy knows what he's doing - and he gets a little help from from Mommy sometimes I guess. I'm totally kidding, sweetie, it's the other way around. You and I would surely have starved by now if it wasn't for your incredible mommy! She was determined to get you eating that nasty stuff, and she worked at it with all the patience of, well, a mother. I did help though, so I know how frustrating it was.
You'd just sputter and cry and let it dribble down onto your bib. It was cute actually, but we were trying to get it into your stomach, not onto it. As you got used to it you also stopped spilling it, and you've gone from this
in just a few short days! Of course, you do still like to blow bubbles and make a mess, but at least now it's an intentional mess! Mommy bought veggies for you today, and she says that she's gonna make you eat - I mean let you eat them for your half-birthday on June 13th. We're excited to see your reaction.
You are freaking adorable, and every time you shake with excitement or grin that enormous grin at us we fall a little more in love with you. It's absolutely incredible to watch you learn and grow and reach new milestones your mother and I have only dreamed about. But, I've said it before and I'll say it again: don't grow up too fast, sweetie! We'll teach you how to feed yourself sooner or later, but hey, you've got the general idea!
