Stats

Bryce passed his doctor's visit. He no weighs almost 16 pounds, and is about 27 inches long. He is sitting up by himself, but tips over after a while. In fact, today he got his first big goose egg. He handled it pretty well, he screamed and then got over it. We were in the relief society room and I scooped him up off the floor and we ran out of the room. I am sure it will be the first of many. We now get to give Bryce solid foods, pureed of course. We started giving him rice cereal about a month ago and this is what he thought about it...


He does better now. We get to give him all sorts of good foods now. He loves bananas, peaches, and pears. However, he dry heaves when we give him green beans. Last Christmas, Brett gave me a Beaba BabyCook which helps you in making your own baby food. It is really neat. It steams and purees the food all in little contraption. Basically, its a glorified blender, but I love it! It works really well at getting the food to the right consistency. The very first solid thing we gave Bryce was watermelon. He was a ferocious little eater! It is adorable to watch him eat. Here is his first tast of watermelon...
Now, his favorite thing is OtterPops! We give them to him in this cool little net/sucker thing. If you try to take it away, he screams like a banshee! You have t let him suck on until he figures it is all gone or he gets really upset. So cute! We love our little guy so much!



I decided that Brett and I need to go out on a date at least once in a while, whithout Bryce. So on Friday, we went to Iggy's sportsgrill for dinner and the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory for a carmal apple. We picked up Bryce after about an hour and twenty minutes, and he did great with Keenan and her family. So we what to send a big shout out to them for babysitting. We got to the restaurant and couldn't figure out anything to talk about except Bryce. So we were back to questions like... "What is your favorite color?" and such. It reminded me of when we were first writing eachother when Brett was in Iraq. It was pretty funny. We will post more soon!

Lol - funny how even babies know that Otterpops are yummy and green beans are not! Smart kiddo :)

It's great to see a picture of you and Bryce together. What a good mom you are and how fun to let him finally taste the wonders of real food. I love this stage.
