A few cute pictures from over the weekend. Oh, and we got a TON of snow!!! It's currently -23 degrees with the windchill. Fun.

Addison's First Meal
After weeks of grabbing for our food and watching intently as we took each bite, Addison was finally able to enjoy her very own meal. And what a meal it was! Who wouldn't want a tablespoon of rice cereal mixed with breast milk - YUM! Although it was little more than soupy mush, Addison was curious and ate the mush enthusiastically. We propped her up in her high chair, rolled the camera and as soon as the spoon got near her mouth, she opened up like a little bird and in went the cereal. So exciting! She opened up again and again, and when she'd had enough, she simply turned her head away. She made a few funny faces, like "what the hell am I eating", but if I had to make a guess I'd say she'll be a pretty good eater. We went out and bought a make-your-own-baby-food cookbook and have every intent of going that route - cheaper and healthier. We'll see.... She'll stick to rice cereal once a day for a few weeks and then we'll introduce other (but likely more tasty) forms of mush - peas, carrots, bananas. We can't wait, and can't believe that this stage in development is already here. So the video clip is a bit too long to post here, but if you go out to Flickr you might be able to pull it up there...good luck.
