First Taste

Exciting mandatory milestone.

I actually wanted to wait a lot longer to give the girls cereal. The thought of another "task", more laundry and more pumping pretty much made me need xanax in bulk. But at nearly 5 months, I'm hoping a little rice cereal at night will end my 6 months of no sleep stretch. It probably won't because I still have a 2 year old who insists on waking up and playing with Buzz Lightyear at 3am, but at least 2/3 is better than none. Right?

So yes, we're still alive. Yes, we are happy. No, we don't do anything exciting besides yard work, housework, cow work, and kid work.

But, the kids are pretty sweet so all is well in Idaho.

poor lighting. great kids. tired mom.
Oakley. Wild, even while eating.

Reagan's face the whole time was hilarious.

The rice cereal went down without any breastmilk scares from Trevor. (If you're been reading this blog long enough, Trevor's first taste of breastmilk was at Trey's first cereal tasting. Pretty epic.) Oakley was more curious and more messy. Reagan, in true Reagan fashion, pounded it like her mom pounds oreos. I learned how crazy it will be to feed two hungry babies at once.
