Holloween 2009: Finn as a Fin

Benjamin and his friend...
Ryder and Presley...

Erik and I met up with my cousin Willow her son Benjamin and my friend Lauryn and her family at the Capitola Kids Halloween parade. All the costumes were super cute! Everyone thought Fin was a shark... Erik kept saying “He’s a FIN...not a shark!

Finn's first bites

For the past month, Finn has been very interested in what Mommy and Daddy are eating.  If he’s in a “mood,” eating an apple in front of him is pure entertainment... So, Erik and I have been anticipating the 6 month mark for a bit now... the time to feed our little Finn “solids!”  After reading various books on baby nutrition, what to feed, how much to feed, when, where... and more.  We opted for bananas, in his highchair, in our kitchen at 6 months and 1 week.  

His first bite was met with a quiver...like when you eat something you hate... and then he started to enjoy the tasty banana... and the next day sweet potato... and beyond! 

the next day, sugar pumpkin with dad...

 {Oh So Yummy Baby Boy}

This little 6 month cherub paid me a visit today. His second since his newborn pics and my has he grown! He was oh so yummy. I just wanted to eat up his cute little rolls. He was quick to smile at my silly antics and I just fell in love with the way he played with his right ear and stuck his tongue out at me. Mommy says that those are his favorite antics these days. How dog gone cute is that! Heavy sigh....I love what I do and I'm a lucky girl to get such sweet time with little ones such as this one.
