Violet's Got a New Pair of Shoes

Since Violet has been walking for a month now, I guess it was time to get some shoes for her. She HATES wearing them and I have a feeling it is going to take a while to get used to them. She cried when I put on these very cute white sandals. She wouldn't even stand up-like she forgot how to walk. So I have been letting her crawl around with them on instead. Hopefully, she will walk again and get used to them. Until then, I've been hearing a lot of crying!

Food for the kiddos

Violet has now mastered level 2 of the baby foods. She is also eating the puffs from Gerber awesomely. I have been giving her Cheerios for breakfast and she gobbles them right up. The one thing that I hate is hearing her little teeth grind as she is figuring out how to chew her food. But I hope that this is just her trying to eat her Cheerios.

Anthony is loving cookings and cupcakes. He still lives on chicken nuggets and ketchup. Sometimes he will try Mac-N-Cheese sometimes I have to eat it for him. But he could eat cookies and cupcakes every day if we let him. Brian and I are so cautious because we don't want our kids to have any weight issues as they grow up. But boy does he get excited when he gets to have a cookie. I think that Publix is his favorite store because they give out free cookies and balloons. Well, he loves Target too because of their Iron Man section.

And yes, Anthony still thinks he is Iron Man.

Thinking about what type of birthday to have for Violet's first....princess seems so over done and am thinking of something different. Strawberry Shortcake? She likes to watch that show as well as Super Why. She always smiles when Princess Pea comes on the screen. Maybe a princess themed is an okay idea.

Waving little hands

Violet is now waving. We have been practicing this week and she now has it down. Brian was so happy and excited when I showed him our new trick and I think I saw a little tear in his eyes. I love watching her walk all wobbly. Too cute. Plus, Anthony and Violet are now playing more together. Well, she just kind of body rolls him but it is cute to see them interacting. She still has her 6 teeth and pretty soon she will be 10 months old. Wow how the time flies...
