Brielle and Dawson






I babysat my niece and nephew on Monday and Lyla loved it. They played surprisingly well together. They colored, played with toys, played outside, and watched movies. These are a few pictures of them playing outside.

Cute kids! Hey, I haven't been blogging much, but it was fun going through your last few posts! Love your b-day pics - you look so pretty! I hate taking pics of myself too, you are so brave! I love Lacee's 4 mo. old pics! What cute, cute faces and smiles! Levi would not smile for anything, so I'll have to try later. Your girls are getting so big!

About when to start feeding solids...
You can start as early as 4 mos with things like rice and oatmeal, but it's recommended to wait longer, until 6 or 7 months. You know, start out with baby cereals (rice, oatmeal, barley) then add in one fruit or veggie at a time to make sure they don't have any allergies. I've given levi rice twice, and it was because we were eating dinner and he kept fussing and smacking his lips and I didn't want to stop eating my dinner to nurse him! So, I fed him rice, which he ate really well. However, I'm not ready to lose my milk yet (it's a great form of birth control for me!), so I'm going to put off solids as long as possible, probably until 7 months. But, we'll see...
