Hi everyone! We had a big weekend this last weekend - Gaby started on her first solids. We're so excited - she sat like a big girl in her high chair and ate some rice cereal. OK, to be honest, maybe it wasn't really eating - it was more like tentative tasting and spitting. We think but can't be certain she actually swallowed the cereal.
Gaby went back and forth between being happy and sad to be seated in her high chair...
And here we go...
We tried a couple times on Saturday and Sunday to give her cereal and then once last night as well as tonight. By tonight, she was a pro - she ate a whole bowl of cereal (OK, so it was maybe a tablespoon) and most of it ended up in her tummy! I gave her an extra spoon because she kept trying to swipe the one I was using. She still kept reaching for the cereal so we did end up with the cereal that didn't end up in her tummy spread around a bit - hands, nose, chin, hair...
Gaby finished her biggest meal of cereal and stayed relatively clean in the process!On Sunday, we joined our friends Dana, David and Jackson at the Long Beach Aquarium. It was Lisa's and Gaby's first trip to the aquarium - so fun!
Gaby and Jackson got to know each other a little better during the day - they both enjoyed being carried by their parents in their respective Baby Bjorns!
Gaby was so fascinated by the fish and water animals she saw! Here she is watching the baby sharks...
I love this shot - Gaby watched the sea lions swimming and tracked them back and forth across the tank.
Gaby tried to touch the fish as they swam by - so cute!!!
It's hard to believe but Gaby will be six months old next week - we'll send an update on her stats after her six-month appointment with the pediatrician.
