My first real dinner in a while and other rambling updates

I have the best husband in the world!  My dinners lately have consisted of what ever I could grab and eat with a baby in one arm on the fly between feeding her and getting her ready for bed.  Usually the only reason I am in the kitchen is to get her bottle ready.  BUT NOT TONIGHT!  Alex made me a yummy turkey burger and veggies and cheese.  I really don't remember the last warm meal I ate for dinner.  THANK YOU ALEX!

We have been having lots of fun playing with different foods.  Today she had peas for the first time.  I think next time I need to cook them a little longer but she seemed to have gotten used to the texture by the end of dinner.  I still don't think she likes apples.  They are my favorite food, she should love them too!  So far, avocado and sweet potato seem to be her favorite.   Sadly, I had to buy her first can of formula today :(  We are running out of frozen breast milk.  I think we have enough for about 1.5 weeks left.  She will have her first formula bottle this weekend.  Hopefully she will tolerate it ok.

We now have consonants.  We have moved on from all vowels and so far we have gotten NA-NA-NA-NA-NA and BA-BA-BA-BA-BA.  Keep your fingers crossed for MA-MA!

Anne-Marie had her Child Development Services intake evaluation.  No surprises, she needs more physical therapy.  She still has some gross motor delays that we need to work on.  Getting the physical therapy has been the challenge.  Our insurance company is not really playing nice.  I am on a mission!  I will get her PT and if there is anything I can do about it, it will not be paid for with taxpayer dollars. 

My promise to you all - not to go another month without an update again, my apologies!
