Silas was awake when I arrived and ready to eat. So cute in his plastic bib. I could just eat him up...
Poor baby can't get enough of anything in his mouth...
This first-time solid meal brought to you by the makers of Gerber Rice Cereal...
Shane and I had our share of good laughs throughout the feeding. And we got it all on videotape. I'll figure out how to cut it and put a short segment on here, but that will have to be another day. Silas had fun and thoroughly enjoyed the cereal. He acted like he'd been eating forever. We did wipe off his face several times during the process so his "after" photo is not quite as telling as it should be...
Now back to my Target tears. I've become the mom that I never understood before I became one. Every little thing is such a big deal. I could talk about pregnancy and breastfeeding and babies and sleep and diapers and who knows whatever else for hours. And love every minute. My heart is more full than ever. When we encounter a milestone, I am reminded that Silas was an unexpected gift. And sometimes I still can't believe that we were given a child. Gracious, gracious Lord Jesus. We, who are so undeserving, are grateful that you take us to places we never imagined. Even the baby food aisle.
