Solids

Rainey has been doing pretty well with her solid foods so we're starting to branch out a bit. She's had avocado twice, but don't let the smile fool you...she stored it all up and spat it back at me.

Tonight I steamed/puréed some carrots and boy did she go crazy for those! I couldn't get the spoon in fast enough. It was also the first night where she was opening for the spoon and leaning in. Solids are still once a day in the evening since Mom's milk is more of a priority, but I'm so proud of how she's transitioning!

In other news, Sam came down with a pretty bad cold that even gave him an asthma-like cough. After trouble breathing so badly one night (his lips were blue for a minute) we ended up finding out he had an ear infection and got an inhaler to have in case breathing was a problem again. He decided that the virus should be the gift that keeps on giving and shared it with Rainey...who then shared it with Mommy. I ended up with a sinus infection and the beginnings of an ear infection and poor Rainey has ear infection #3 and bronchitis. We've spent the past 6 weeks with someone sick. Enough already! (David has been fine, he NEVER gets sick. I'm so jealous.)
