Please excuse the hideous brick laminate flooring...I'm in a desperate search for an "ugliest kitchen" competition where the winner gets a free kitchen remodel...if you know of any - do tell and help a sister out!
And major thanks to my girls Natalie over at "From Corporate to Domestic" and Samantha over at "Adventures with Gwen" for the music inspiration (I always love watching videos of their wees ones and hearing the fun music they pair with it!)!!
At Addie's 6 month check-up the doctor prompted us to introduce Addie to puffs so that she could practice the "pincher" grasp and also in the event she found something small on the floor and put it in her mouth, she might know what to do with it. Seemed perfectly logical to us, so off we went to pick up some puffs from Babies R Us. I debated at length with the hubs about the brand and flavor we should purchase and finally agreed on the Plum Organics Peach and Banana puffs. Our doc encouraged us to pair the puffs with some water in a sippy cup so that she could also start to master drinking from a sippy cup. So, one morning last week, I gave it a go after S had left for work and she was not a fan. There was alot of drama involved, yelling-coughing-gagging-blowing and then REPEAT. I told my friend J at work about it and she insisted I get video of this - so I did. And, I'm glad I did because I don't know if this has happened to anyone else, but I'm at a loss on what to do. Not that puffs are essential to her nutrition, because I'm pretty sure there is very little nutritional value to these things BUT, they do make for easy snacks to have on hand when fussiness sets in. Did anyone else have this same reaction and if so, any ideas?? - is it just a time thing? I have continued to give them to her every morning but I am continuing to get the same reaction:( Oh..and here's the proof (sorry for the grainy pic - its my phone):
I just had to post this fun video that I caught on the hub's phone of Addie laughing at the dogs. Within the last week or so, she has really started laughing and we are just loving it!! She just thinks the world of our two pups!! Happy Friday!!!
