Updating!

It has been a while since my last post, mainly because I have to fight my hubby for the computer. If you have taken a look at his blog lately you can see that he is quite the blogger! I have wanted several times to blog about the topics he has blogged about but just could not find the words. He says everything I have wanted to say and what America needs to hear. We have become quite the political family and are very concerned with the direction this country is headed in. As you can see we are rasin' Laney right!!!

Now on to what you are really here for:
Laney is just growing up so fast and is becoming quite the social butterfly. It always takes us forever to get out of church because everyone wants to see that beautiful smile of hers. She is especially fond of the "blue haired" ladies, maybe its the wrinkles!!
At her four month check up the doctor suggested we start solid foods. She was in the 60th percentile at 2 months and has dropped down to the 10-15th percentile. I was already somewhat concered since she is still in newborn clothes(some 3 month). He said that she is doing just fine as a breastfed baby and did not think I should supplement with formula at all. He just wanted her to have the extra calories that rice and foods can give. So we started on the wild adventure of feeding a 4 month old. Rice was a success and she seemed to really like it. Oatmeal was not a success as you can see. We just love her face in this picture!


Next was sweet potatoes which was another success and then green beans is what we are trying now. I think green beans is by far the favorite.

She even managed to steal the spoon from me! Silly girl!!

Well its getting late and blogspot is not cooperating very well for me tonight...maybe its just my inexperience. These will have to do for now.
P.S...My parents and little sis came into town to see Laney(not us) and we put them to work. We are in the process of trying to sell our house and we decided it needed some curb appeal. If you would like to see before and after pics, please refer to my hubby's blog as he has beaten me to the punch and blogged about it! Enjoy!!!
