Introducing Solid Foods

July 28, 2015April 10, 2017

This post is a long time in coming, but on July 15, we introduced little Mazy to rice cereal! She turned 4 months that Friday, but decided that she was hungry enough to want it, and growing enough to need it. We are hoping this fills her up a bit more, and so far, it has. Plus, we were eager to start her on solids because that was just one more thing to look forward to in raising a child. By all means, we don’t wish away her baby stage, but the joy of parenting is seeing your children grow. That we have not been missed out on one bit. She brings so much joy to our lives!

And…

Mazy loved rice cereal from first sight to first taste!

Sitting in her big girl chair, getting ready for the first bite. Can you sense her excitement?

Here it comes!

Already wanting to hang onto utensils!

She could not get enough of it…

As you can see!

Since introducing her to cereal, we feed it to her once or twice a day (depending on our schedule), and have also introduced oatmeal as well, which again, she LOVES! She is my kind of girl, in loving food! I can’t get the next bite into her mouth fast enough!

Around The Home Part 2

One last Christmas party on Saturday! Having the party a bit later in the holiday season was nice so that we had something to look forward to! Of course Mazy was all the more excited because that meant there was more wrapping paper to rip and presents to unwrap. We started the night off with…

Don’t Do It All

As women, many of us have this nagging and constant tapping on the shoulder, telling us we need to do more. And more. Telling us we need to go to this. Telling us we need to make that. Telling us we need to look like this. Telling us we need to commit to that. Telling…

11 Ways to Prepare For Winter

Tis the season! I am not talking about the holiday season, but the frigid winter season that we are now embarking on. It doesn’t matter where you live in the United States; at some point, you will probably experience some unusual weather for your area. Whether that means snow for the first time in years…

Around the Home

Week number who knows what in lockdown, but I am growing to love this. I know that may sound odd, but I often find when we have slower times in life or when I am forced to slow down, it’s because I’m recovering from a procedure or surgery. Those times are often quite difficult, so…

Preparing for Black Friday

I sometimes do not know what to think about Black Friday. For weeks, there have been commercials about when certain deals are starting for weeks. In fact, many stores have started their “Black Friday” sales at the beginning of the month! Then I wonder, why do we make such a big deal about Black Friday?…

What Mazy’s Been Up To!

We sure have a growing girl! I have had numerous people tell me that Mazy looks older than almost 4 months, but also has such long legs! Both are probably true, but all we know, is that we are just so in love with this little girl! This week Mazy has really become active in…
