Typical Thursday Morning

I'm sitting on the computer, studying, listening to Darius Rucker, holding Raigan, and eating a bowl of mac and cheese (I'm a seasoned pro at multitasking let me tell you), and as I'm spooning the bites into my mouth, Raigan keeps getting more and more fussy, and louder and louder with each bite. With so much going on, it took me a few minutes to make the connection: she was getting mad that I was feeding myself and that those spoonfuls of mac and cheese were going into my mouth and not her's. Ha. So i jumped up and she devoured an entire serving of peaches in about five minutes. :) I love it!

Scrub a Dub Dub

I have been making my own baby food!

I cannot lie. I love to buy baby food from the store. I'm weird, I know. I just like picking out the variety, getting ideas from Gerber and Earth's Best, and seeing how much my sweet babe loves the most of each new food they offer. 

I do find it strange though that none of them have broccoli? 

Although I have a love affair with shopping for baby food, I have become interested in learning more about making my own baby food! So... I read some books, did some research, shopped for fresh fruit and veggie's, and food processed my heart out!

Zuccini and Squash!

In the food processor!

Raigan waited anxiously!

So I let her lick the spoon!

I froze the rest for later in ice cube trays!

They turned out beautifully!

Pears!

This is some plum and banana puree I made!

It was a hit!

I love having a baby that loves to eat!

Spring!!!!

It's finally warm enough to enjoy the park scene! I packed up our dinner (chicken cor don blue) which wasn't so easy haha and we ate it at the park on one of the picnic tables.

Then we blew bubbles:


And played on the jungle gyms:



Went down the slide:



Got to swing! And make funny faces (even at 3 1/2 months old):



Monkey around:



Shoot some hoops with our Daddy:



And just enjoy the fact that spring is finally arrived!



We are all pretty excited! Even baby Raigan:

Things I would be if I wasn't a nurse:

• a stay at home mom
• dietitian
  
• photographer
• pharmacist
• party planner
• teacher
  

It changes on a daily basis. The cool thing is, as a mom, I get to be all of the above. :)

Easter Day!

Today we went to church. We were grateful that Jesus died on the cross for us. Enjoyed our beautiful daughters.
