Trying rice cereal...YUMMY!



Ashlyn started rice cereal on June 5th. The first three times she tried it she didn't like it very much but by the 4th time we started thickening it and she has done really well since. She eats it twice a day and for the most part eats it all. Sometimes she is more fascinated with the bowls we have or anything that is going on around her. On those days it takes us quite a while to finish her chow.
P.S. I tried upload a couple more but my pictures are still having trouble uploading, so I'm taking what I can get.

Alas!

Well I can't get my computer to upload again and I think it has something to do with Josh and John playing the x-box so I will try to attempt to post the other pics that I wanted to post tomorrow. Farewell and good night.

Mid-May Stroll Through the I.F. Zoo

Josh's sister invited us to go to the zoo with her and her children (Josh's mom and siblings also came along). Ashlyn didn't stay awake very long but seemed to enjoy getting out of the apartment. Here are 2 pics of our adventure. My computer and internet keep going down so I couldn't post more pics.I was hoping to post the picture of the baby camel (born in Feb.) but it won't upload so this is all you get for now.


I didn't stay awake very long, but I did enjoy being out and about


This guy definitely thinks he's the "King"

The 4-month checkup

Well Ashlyn survived her 4 month checkup but didn't like it much. She was fine up until the doctor had daddy put her down. From that point on she just screamed and screamed and screamed. She definitely remembered getting those darn shots last time and she definitely didn't want them again. Besides not likely the shots (like any normal person) she is doing good. She weighed in at 13 lbs 11 oz and is 25 1/2 inches long ( 1 1/2 inches taller than predicted). She is now in the 90th percentile for height. Her weight and head are still around the 50th percentile. Today we are going to start her on rice cereal. I'll try and get some pics and post them tomorrow. Have a happy one.
