Dinner is Served

Today was a good day. It comes as a welcome respite after a long, hard week with Kate. Kate and I ran some errands this morning with a good friend who is expecting her baby any day now. Kate was delightful, and we had our first successful shopping experience. Also, it was a good day because Kate ate well! Kate hasn't eaten well the last few days - much to my frustration. So in order to increase her calorie intake and help her reflux we introduced oatmeal cereal this week. The doctor said it could take quite a few attempts before she gets the hang of it...

First Day: Kate wasn't too sure about this stuff.

Second Day: Kate really didn't like it!

I don't think she swallowed any of the cereal.

Day Three: Well, why don't you just see for yourself...

Along the same line of thinking, I bought a high chair for Kate today when we were out running errands. She has really been trying to sit up a lot lately, and we wanted her to have a place to sit and play while we ate. And now she has a place to eat too. We all had a wonderful dinner tonight...full of smiles and laughter.

The shiny glow on Kate's face is Aquaphor...

she just had a bath and she was all greased up and ready for bed!
