Lucy Starts Solids

This is a picture of Lucy a couple of weeks ago when we got a new mini jogging stroller. Don't be misled by her look of utter joy with her new wheels. We are lucky if she makes it 10 minutes without fussing in her stroller. She much prefers to be carried by mom and dad. Isn't that just par for the course. You wait to buy a new stroller and then the kid doesn't even want to go in it. So we started Lucy on rice cereal and oatmeal. She isn't a big fan of either and typically most of the cereal ends up all over her face rather than in her mouth. However, she is getting better at eating. It was pretty funny to see her expression when we first gave her the cereal. She looked so confused.
I love this shot because it shows what a little half-pint she is. What a little munchkin in such a big highchair! The yellow booties were lovely crocheted by Grammy Pederson. Before Lucy was born Grammy was eagerly anticipating her arrival and decided to start creating something for her and by the morning she had crocheted this adorable little booties.

Don't worry Lucy, other food is better than rice cereal. Wait until you try cheese!

Cool ride Lucy. Now we can go for walks together.

That highchair is great. Vera prefers me to crank it all the way back to a full recline while feeding her grapes one by one.

Lucy looks like a little doll sitting in there!

Hey, Lucy...sounds like you have your parents trained pretty well. Hang in there and soon you'll be able to use words like "No!" "Mine!" and "Me do!" to make your wishes known! (If you're anything like your mom was,--and I strongly suspect that you are-- you'll have them whipped into shape in no time!)
