Gwen's 6 months of smiles video montage

Thanks to mom's donation of a mac computer (god I love mac), I was able to get a little creative with our collection of videos...enjoy.

First tooth

Gwen's first tooth surfaced this weekend. James and I were just playing around with her on Friday night and low and behold...the little chomper has broken free! Maybe that's why she's been kinda cranky all week.

Sarah (her nanny) has been doing a great job of working her into solid foods though and now she wolfs down her bananas, beans and sweet potatoes. It still takes her awhile to get used to new flavors but once she does, she's devoted!

Almost crawling

She's working on it!

Solid Food update

We're getting much better! So far we've tried banana's (big fan), an apple/prune mix, a pea/pear/mint mix (big fan) and sweet potatoes (eh, not so much). She's eating about two ice cube sized servings every day mixed in with some cereal and formula. As for finger food...not yet. She does grab at whatever I am putting in my mouth but when we tried little pieces of banana she spit them back out. We'll keep toying with it though.

She's still not a 'neat' eater by any means. When she's done with the food she wipes off her tongue with her hand and then rubs her food laden hand ALL over her face...evidence below.
