Crazy for Cereal!

Well, I know I've posted quite a bit about Tegan's experiences with "solid" foods, but he's just so darn cute and loves his cereal more and more everyday! To those of you who read this who have babies that haven't started solids yet here's a piece of advice... just keep in mind that every baby is different so maybe yours will be different from Tegan. Our pediatritian told us to mix T's cereal runny, like the consistency of soup. Well, Tegan didn't really do well with it that way and wasn't too excited about eating it at that texture (still isn't, cause that's what it's like for the last spoonful or so). So I mix the cereal to a thicker consistency and he LOVES it! Can't get enough of it and I can't get him the next spoonful fast enough in his opinion.

Also, I know we've only been using it for a week, but we/I love the high chair that we got. It's the Graco Contempo high chair and it folds up super compactly in just 2 easy steps... perfect for us since we're in a townhome and don't have much space to just keep the high chair out all the time. The only thing that's frustrating, though probably best for safety sake, is that it takes 2 hands to fold and unfold it. Here's a link to the demo of it :)

We also had another great day at the bike races today. Tegan did pretty darn well considering the pretty extreme heat (the thermometer read 100.0 when we left this morning... it's in the sun, though, so not totally reliable at times... the car therm. said it was 87). After a quick cat-nap he was back up and at 'em playing with Grandma Eastwood and Auntie Amanda and just EATING up the attention!
When Jen Meyer flatted (got a flat tire) she was next in line to play entertainer... by then Tego was pretty darn hot and gettin' tired again, but he enjoyed walking around in the sun and taking in the sights.

A big "Way-to-Go" to Brendan/Daddy for taking 1st in the Expert Men's category at the race today! He works hard and deserves to win more than he does! OJ sweetie! Tegan says "Ahgoooooobbbbmmm!"

Thanks for reading!!!
