Let's see, Althea is 5.5 months old. Just two weeks shy of 6 months old we decided it was time for some rice cereal for her. She is a pro. It didn't take her very long to figure out that it is fun to eat. She kicks her legs and giggles for more food! Pictures to come.
She loves to play with her toys and watch her brother. She likes me a lot too :) She is a particular little human being. She will not drink from a bottle some days but willingly does so others, she refuses to drink formula, some days she likes other people and some days she doesn't. We just don't know what we are going to get! She is super happy and smiley, a little bashful, and just plain cuddly.
Reid is doing great. He loves the human body model he received in his Easter basket. He is obsessed with a game at the library called the Amazing Human Body and knows all the answers. He makes huge proclaimations for a 3.5 year old such as, "Do you know that the kidneys clean your blood?" and he will tell complete strangers about their bladders and intestines. He loves to make lists. They can be of anything...dinosaur lists, grocery lists, animal lists, etc. He likes to write and practice his letters. He is interested in instructional tv on pbs, "My Beautiful House," mostly. It is a show where they follow children around their homes all over the world. He now wants to visit children in Indonesia and Cuba. Right now his favorite game is "Hammer," in which we all throw pillows and blankets at one another and hammer and claw each other. Doesn't that sound like fun?
Well that is a little bit of what is going on with the little humans right now!
