Easter 2010

We had a GREAT EASTER! It started off with an awesome mass, then we came home to cook and get things ready for the kids. We had lots of food and an egg hunt for the kids, they had a ball. I loved how small and intimate it was and I esp. LOVED that it was Nate's first Easter!

Cinnamon Apples Yummm

Peel 4 apples and diced them.

Put in a pot with a little water, a bit of cinnamon and cover.

Cook for 1/2 hour on low, or till they're super soft.

Cool Down and put in blender with all the juice they looked in. You can add water or BM, I didn't add anything this time.

Beautiful Applesauce!

Picture after he ate his applesauce, I think he loved it!

Avocado Time!

Nate and his Avocado

Nate had some great tasting Avocado mixed with Breastmilk and he loved it! here's the recipe:

1/8 of an Avocado

Add 2 tsp. of BreastMilk

Mix Really well, smashing every solid piece. Make sure to take any black rotted pieces out--I was so excited that I didn't even think about it and when I mixed it you could see it.

Feed Baby in laundry room :-) He likes it!

oooohhhh Get in my Belly!

Ok, I had enough

He really enjoyed the Avocado but only ate about 5 small spoons so there was a lot left over so you might want to start with even a smaller portion and work your way up to 1/8....live and learn!

Nate Loves his Walker!

One of my best buddies came over yesterday and dropped off a bunch of baby stuff for Nate. I couldn't wait to get him in the walker and try it out, so last night we popped him in and he loved it! He still can't touch the floor but I give him another 2 weeks and he'll be able to. Today he sat in it for 1 whole amazing hour! can you believe that!??! He sat with Bubbs and Audrey while they played and he kept talking and playing along, Thank you Vanessa!!

Nate's 1st Christmas

Hope everyone had a great Christmas!

We did :-) it was very low-key and no where over the top  like in the past. Instead, we celebrated it at my Mother in laws and again I took everything over there and cooked. We had the usual goodies, but this year we had something better, little Nathaniel! Thank you God for our wonderful blessing, we couldn't imagine our lives without him, he is such a great addition to the mix and we're enjoying every minute of his presence.

Merry Christmas Everyone!
