Snap! Crackle! Pop!

This week Michael had his 4 month doc appointment, with a second round of vaccinations under his belt...err he had them in the leg ( ha ha).....the doc said we could begin introducing rice cereal. I was really excited to begin this new endeavor. I did NOT realize how many choices one has when buying rice cereal ( even at the Jewel) None the less, I choose one and was off to make the delicious mush that would be my sons first "real" meal.

Just when you get into a routine, you are allowed to introduce something new. I really thought that would drive me nuts. Actually I feel the complete opposite. How cool is it to be a part of my busters firsts!

A video of what ensued:

I wanna talk to ya!

Michael and Jane shared in the joy of Tiffany's bridal shower this weekend. They day was met with good food, sparkling conversation, and lots of smiles.




Michael also tried out his jumperoo for the first time. He seems to enjoy it, mom and Dad think its a keeper.

Michael went on his first vacation this summer, the annual Gorrie Kentucky trip. He was a peach in the car on the 7 hour drive, he made his mama real proud!
It was wonderful week of introductions ( he met his Aunt Kat)

Of course being only three and half months old he had a number of firsts. His first mosquito bite, his first swim in the pool, his first smell of the lake breeze, and his first boat ride.
