monday night we were eating dinner on the patio...ham & cheese sandwiches & pasta salad & watermelon. pretty tasty, eh? adeline pushes her plate away telling us she's done eating & then goes into the house. we hear her rummaging around doing something & a few minutes later she walks back onto the patio barely holding onto a half gallon of chocolate milk. she then tells us she wants some chocolate milk. "that's my girl!" was wes' response.

amelia, oh amelia, how you confuse your parents. one day, you only want table food, preferably something you can feed yourself. the next day, you only eat veggie chips (hey, no judging; they say VEGGIE in the name!). the day after that you eat a full cup of baby rice cereal & make 'mmmmhhmmm' noises. the next day you are back to table food. what are we to do with you?
******
things adeline will eat straight out of the container:
sugar
salt
whipped cream in a can
ketchup
grated parmesan cheese
french onion chip dip
honey
hot sauce (only once)
things adeline will swipe to eat herself:
cookies
apples
my cereal in my bowl as i'm eating it
sugar (or any aforementioned item)
frozen nuggets
frozen blueberries
okay, my daughter will swipe anything & eat it herself, this list was about to get too long.

amelia ate her first cookie yesterday; it was an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie. i have one of the best recipes for this cookie. yum yum. but i'm not sharing. just kidding! i will share if anyone wants it. so anyway, amelia had her first cookie yesterday & she was in love, even more than with her first pizza. she flapped like a chicken the entire time she was munching on this cookie (oh, 10 minutes?) which made adeline give her even more of her own cookie (sharing is good). when adeline was a baby or younger than 24 months (she's 31 months), we tried over & over to get her to eat sweat or very salty things (ice cream, chips, cookies, cake, chocolate, etc etc) & she refused them with a look of "why are you, my parents, trying to poison me?! get thy high fructose corn syrup away from my healthy lips!!" but she has quickly adjusted since about last fall around the time when amelia was born...egads, is she an emotional eater? (probably & yes, she gets that from me). amelia on the other hand has been completely different. yes, she's already eating cookies & chips & is completely refusing with a pout of disgust all bananas. this is just something that tickled my mama funny bone today as i watched amelia chomping away at a cookie.
& another thing i love about babies: yawns. not only does it mean i'm close to getting them asleep, but wow, is it ADORABLE when they contort their entire face just to get that little yawn out & then that weak little noise that goes along with it. smoldering mama heart.
not much is going on here today, as you can tell with my post about food. i hope you have eaten something highly yummy today.

Oh I love baby yawns. G is not too fond of table food yet. We have only tried a few things being the nervous parents with allergies and stuff. He gags everytime he tries different textures.
and i thought you said you weren't into getting mushy over baby things. sheesh. :-)
cookie recipe!
