Our Kids

Well Phoebe has started down the eating path. Today she had her second “helping” of oatmeal. Yesterday she thought it was okay but today she actually seemed to think it was good. She ate one tablespoon which is a lot for a wee babe.

As far as food goes she is not as interested in breastfeeding or eating in general. The problem is that during the day when life is happening she doesn’t want to nurse, she wants to see all the action which makes facing me and nursing quite a challenge. So I thought I would offer her a little cereal during the day so she can be up and looking at everyone.

Yes that is right, Landis asked for MORE broccoli!!!! Either my cooking skills have gone off the charts fantastic (doubtful) or she is finally coming around. I am surely not counting my proverbial chickens before they hatch but WAHOO! Two servings of broccoli in one day, sigh, sniff, sniff:)

It has finally warmed up to the temperatures where we only look longingly at the outdoors and try to spend as little time in it as possible. Today we had a play date with fellow twin friends Piper and Zoe, then we all headed to the library for a flamenco dancing show. When that finished we turned in our summer reading program, got our Diamondback tickets and headed for the border (Taco Bell that is). After that it is suffice to say we were PHOT. The girls are now playing on the porch with Corbin (friend/mother’s helper) with moon sand (worst invention ever), water colors and a dinosaur dig (Piper is excavating a Trex) with the occasional plop in the kiddie pool. Ahhh…..summer:)

Oh and Phoebe is resting peacefully under a fan in our bedroom after a busy morning. I wish I was resting:)
