My monkeys had their three month old birthday on Thursday! I can't believe it. Their personalities are showing more and more everyday. Special things happened for their birthday . . .
1. We got their 3 month pictures taken at Target (gotta throw that in there for copyright purposes)! We didn't get many picture because after the MOST adorable smiles you have ever seen it quickly went to screaming and it was hotter than the Devil in the studio.
2. Mommy, Daddy and Grandma ate cupcakes from Smallcakes!
These cupcakes were so stinkin' good I can't even describe it to you, the frosting was a little chunk of heaven.
3. The babies got to eat too!! Yes, the pedi recommends between 4-6 months, but I know my babies are ready and mommy knows best. Ever does much better than Ocean and they have just had some once a day. We used organic brown rice cereal mixed with their soy formula. On every online community moms freak out if someone feeds their baby food before 4 months, but in real life I don't know a single person who actually waited until 4 months so if you are thinking of leaving a comment about how it's so bad for them don't bother. hehe
It was a fun filled week!
That being said, there will be no "Weight Watching" tomorrow. I absolutely refuse to hit the scale, mostly out of intense fear. I didn't have the time to work out once, I ate Oreos dunked in peanut butter for lunch one day, and see above the photo of the cupcakes. I guarantee they are at least 1,000 calories apiece and there are none left. Hopefully next week will be better! I also got my monthly gift for the first time in over a year, so that was just great. One of my favorite movie quotes of all time came from one of the "South Park" movie characters in reference to women: "I don't trust anything that bleeds for five days and doesn't die." True that . . .
Those photos are ADORABLE!!! Your kids get more gorgeous every single day! And thanks for making me hungry with that blasted cupcake shot and description. I am stuck in the hospital so I guess I will have to settle for Jello or applesauce. Ugghhhh.
ReplyDeleteOMG, Oreos dunked in peanut butter sounds like heaven. Why have I not ever thought of that?!?
ReplyDeleteMan, I go on vacation for 2 weeks and your kids do all kinds of cute things without me here to watch! The 3 month pics are adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Eileen - the cupcakes look yummy!
PS - I attempted food with the twins at 4 months, but they didn't have good swallow reflexes... had to postpone it until a few weeks later before we achieved success ;-)
I love the baby food stage.. those little smacky lip noises are so sweet! Enjoy every bite!!! (and be ready to flip bibs up in front of their faces when you see them ready to sneeze - or blow raspberries at you)
