Feed Me!

We've passed the 4th month mark and we got the official "green light" from our pediatrician to start rice cereal. It's been a week and so far so good! It took a bit for Kyle to realize what the spoon in his mouth was all about but he soon adjusted and started eating the whole serving! As we all know, cereal is one sticky mess - especially when you have a baby that is obsessed with blowing raspberries! But Adam and I still look forward to mealtime with our little guy every night! Here are a few pictures from the big event. Next up.....sweet potatoes!! :) Looking forward to his reaction to actual flavor!

Rollin'....Rollin'.....

So at 16 weeks Kyle is officially rolling from tummy to back!! He was not a huge fan of tummy time until recently where he really got a grasp of holding his head up really well. This all happened pretty much overnight. Then to our surprise, on Tuesday he completely rolled from his belly to his back and we were both there to witness it! Obviously we didn't expect it so I didn't have the video camera for that one, but we've managed to snag a few more rolls on video, here is one for you to enjoy! Now there isn't much tummy time to be had, because once you put him on his belly he almost immediately rolls over to his back. HaHa

Next up, rolling from back to belly - stay tuned!!

1st Day of School

Everyone says that babies grow so fast, but I guess you never can actually grasp that concept until you have your own. When I had Kyle on May 13th, I will admit that September 1st seemed so far away. Well, my maternity leave/summer vacation came and went and somehow my baby is almost 4 months old!! While Mommy returned to work on September 1st, Kyle started daycare. It was an emotional day - mainly for me, Kyle didn't seem to notice the change too much, thankfully! We couldn't be happier with our daycare provider - they came to us as a referral from my friend Julie from work. Her son, Matty, goes to the same daycare and she has nothing but great things to say about them! Day 1 went great - Kyle had an awesome day and I told him he may have set the bar pretty high for himself and that he had to be that good everyday!! :) I only called once around noon to check-in and he was doing great - eating, napping, and playing with the other kids! Music to a new-mommy's ears! Day 2 went just as good, as did Day 3....I'm hoping this trend continues! It was good to get back to work and into a routine - but I miss those days just hanging out with Kyle, taking our walks (and sleeping in!) But I know this change is going to be good for all of us.....or at least that's what people keep telling me for reassurance!

Here are some pictures from Kyle's first day! The last one is Kyle and his caregiver, Karen - she's been so great to him!!
