grab some popcorn, it's time for the movies

We love movies here at the Blad Pad so I wanted to share a couple of very short home "movies". Nothing too exciting, but a couple of bits and pieces of what has been happening in our house as of late.

Miss A has decided that she much prefers food that she can pick up and feed herself. It all started with the Gerber Sweet Potato Puffs. She has become OBSESSED with these little puffs and will strategically pick out all the puffs on her tray and leave the rest (ie pears, peaches, noodles, peas, etc) behind. I continue to try to offer pureed foods, but she has become the Berlin Wall and will NOT let anything past her lips. So, I am now trying to slowly introduce other finger foods - ones that she can eat (meaning on the list of okay foods for her age) as well as ones that I don't get too freaked out about giving her (which really is pretty much 98% of all food).



Our little man has grown into quite the story teller (hmmmm. . . wonder where he gets that from?) One of his new favorite things to do is grab a "big person" book, open it, and tell a wonderful story. The best part is that he does a question and answer time at the end - it is priceless. I tried to get him on this little video, but he was too preoccupied trying to count his fingers . . . . and count. . . and count again. Quite amusing, at least for this Mom. Just a little warning, Annika had just woken up from her nap so she wasn't too excited about listening to her big brother tell a story, so you will hear her complain a little bit.

This last one is of Annika today. She can't listen to music without clapping - no matter where we are or what we are doing, when she hears music she stops and claps. It is so sweet. . . just like her!
