Mattie eats from a spoon now!

She won't be {4} months until the 16th of December..but she learned how to eat from a spoon already..I started teaching her on Tuesday..and she surprised me today; she just started eating! She opened her mouth for every bite..and if I didn't move fast enough..she had her mouth open & waiting like a little bird. We video-taped it..she loves her cereal..she was smiling {a lot}..I think it made her very happy to have something other than Nestle's Good Start! She has had {2} bowls today! She also attended her very first Christmas Parade today..there was a wrecker company that ran in the parade{they had 3 trucks} and they were honking their loud horns; Mattie thought that was hilarious..every single time they honked..she giggled..she cracks me up!



Pictures from Thursday night..She is my little pork-chop!


I love..love..love her little fat feet!

Hey Jill! She is so precious!!!!!! I love it that you have that picture of you kissing her. I was very bad about pics when Caroline was little and now I regret it. Trying to do better.

I have been meaning to call you while I had free minutes this weekend and completely forgot. I will be out of town next week and can't make it to your house. Sorry I didn't have your e-mail. I hope you see this soon. Thanks for inviting me though! I would have loved to come!

Brillian mother that you are...knowing when it is time to start using utensils! No wonder your kids are good at so many things!

Sweet pictures....I gotta tell you I have a thing about baby feet....I just almost can't stand not nibbling on them. Which is fine with parents you know...but I really have to work hard when it is a baby I don;t know and their little foot is stuck out of the blankie. (ok -- enough confession)

Hope you have a great week...am missing you....thanks for the book...I have a ton of stuff I want to order...of course! *smile*

Great point about celebrating the birth of Jesus. I say Merry Christmas to everyone even if they wish me "Happy Holidays"
