There have been several things happening lately that I think, "hmmm, that would be a great thing to blog about", but then I never get around to it. So, here I am posting, and none of those "things" are popping up right now. Oh well. Our baby girl will be 7 months next week. She is crawling all over the place. She will start out on her hands and knees and then eventually get tired and army crawl to wherever she wants. She is determined to get whatever she has her sights on, and put it in her mouth! never fails. I have been fighting with her for almost a month about baby food. I tried rice cereal at first and she did, okay with it. Then we moved on to fruit and she will have absolutely NOTHING to do with it. So, I went back to rice cereal and now she refuses to eat it. Um, okaaaaay... So, we were at Moes last Monday (as we are every Monday for our burrito and drink for $5.55) and she was in the high chair staring at me eat. So, I took a piece of black bean and put it in her mouth. She chewed it, and chewed it, and chewed it, and wanted more. She would get so excited everytime I would put it near her mouth! Then, I thought I wonder if she would eat this rice? So, I tried it. The little stinker gobbled it right up. She probably had a couple tablespoons of rice and at least a tablespoon of black beans. Yes, Taylor has decided she will NOT be following the normal baby routine as her brothers did. (my boys were such good eaters in fact, I use to have to add cereal to Jacob's because he would just eat and eat). Sissy eats table food. She eats what we eat (minus the meat) and her momma's milk. I know it's crazy and weird, but it's working....
Noah has been sick. Well, I like to call it the 5 hour flu bug. He was sick for 5 straight hours running to the bathroom every 20 minutes. Poor Kid. We made him a little bed in our room and when we would hear the moaning, we would run him to the bathroom. One of the last times he got sick he was actually in our bed and got yuckies all over the pillows, blankets, sheets, you name it. So, after we got everything cleaned up, sheets changed, new blankets, pillow cases, new jammies, Noah laid there and said, "I am really sorry mommy! Will you please forgive me for throwing up in your bed?" Bless his heart! I gave him a huge hug and told him that he didn't have to ask for forgiveness and I will always take care of him when he is sick. I kept him home from school and he woke up perfectly fine. Running around and eating just like normal. 5 hour flu......who knew? Jacob absolutely loved having him home today, they played and played. They are really into Mario Bros characters and they like to pretend to be them. Jacob will be Donkey Kong and Noah will be Bowser. Well, I overheard them playing today and Jacob said, "Um, excuse me Bowser, I have to go pee." Oh, little boys.... And here is our lives as of late in pictures :-)
