He Don't Eat No Meat?

One of my favorite lines from My Big Fat Greek Wedding is when the main character is explaining to her family that her fiance is a vegetarian: "What do you mean he don't eat no meat? Oh, that's okay. I make lamb."

Up until now, Noelle has been a vegetarian. That all changed this weekend! Man, baby food meat smells bad! Anyway, she had her first taste of chicken. We were ready with our camera, anticipating a funny face, but this is as close as we got. She seemed to think it was okay yesterday, but today she screamed when I tried to feed her.


Noelle is feeding herself a little more now. We've tried the Gerber "puffs" that dissolve really easily in your mouth. She's also had some small pieces of soft vegetables and fruits. She seems to really like doing it by herself...I think she'd eat anything that she got to do herself. I must admit I'm still really freaked out about her choking! On this particular day I think she had a hole in her mouth. :-)


Here's a couple of cute pictures we took after church today. Thank you, Mimi, for the adorable chick!

What a cutie! How did the babyproofing go?

She looks soooo big in the last 2 pictures!! And so springy:)

The choking thing freaks me out too. I just had to start, and not look back. Mallory has a good gag reflex and usually coughs whatever it is up.

The cheerios picture is cute too. We found part of a cracker in Mallory's "crack" one time. How it got there, we don't know!

Ahh, the babyproofing...well, we bought the stuff. :-)

Shannon, I've been laughing about your "crack" comment all morning! It reminds me when Noelle's umbilical cord feel off. Normally it's like in their diaper or onesie, right? Well, we couldn't find it! (No it wasn't in her crack.) :-) We found it a few hours later in the recliner. Not sure how that happened either. Oh, the weird and gross things we deal with now!
