It was Bath Night Anyway










I am sort of paranoid about giving my babies real food. I have this fear of choking that I just can't shake. I remember when I first gave Reesi grapes I would peel the skin of of them and then chop them up into about ten pieces. I haven't done grapes with Elye Kate yet, but I did let her have some rice and black beans (cut up into about 5 pieces). Larry was gone for the night, Elye Kate was screaming, and I just wanted to eat my dinner. The rice and black beans shut her right up. It even bought me some time to clean up the kitchen after dinner! She loved it, but I am afraid she will only get this privilege on bath nights. She was such a mess!

Maggie LOVES black beans and rice! Makes it easy for us when we got to mexican restaurants, but drives me crazy b/c she will not use a spoon so it's so messy.

oh, I love a dirty, nasty baby... I know, weird but it means they have been having fun. It took me 3 kids to embrace it!
