Papa took a trip to Providence, RI to visit the 601 guys and run a marathon. Back home, we had our own fun. My college roommates, Leah and Colleen, came in from Rockville and Cincinnati for the weekend.
It was everyone's first time to see Bea. Here's Colleen with Bea and her babies, Owen and Logan.
June and Connor really hit it off. They spent hours playing with Legos.
Georgie was so happy to have her Olivia back with her.
And they are both much more enjoyable at 4 than they were at 2.
This is the closest thing we got to a group shot of the whole group. I guess we forgot about that in all of the craziness of the weekend.
At 6 months, we've let Bea chew on many foods, but haven't officially
given her anything to eat. She has spent many a playdate gnawing away
on a carrot or celery stick (her favorite). She's also been known to suck on a pizza crust.
Part of it may be that I'm proud of myself for finally producing enough
milk to sustain a child past 5 month- when I've had to start
supplementing with formula with all the other kids. The other part is
pure laziness. It's much easier to hand a baby a carrot stick than to
deal with messy baby food.
But it's safe to say that Bea really enjoyed her first bites of oatmeal.
It's so good!
Here's video that Henry took of the event- with much talk of my beloved phablet.
With a full belly, Bea was content to play on the floor for a little while and take in the madness of our house of 8 kids.
And even rolled a little- with much prompting.
"Hey mom, now that I eat real food can I have some of your Cookout milkshake?"
