[She likes it!

She likes it!

We had a massive Garage sale last weekend and cleaned up, literally. We couldn’t believe some of the things we were able to sell. (One man’s trash…) Camille had fun meeting all the people who came by. Later that weekend we introduced her to her first solid food, rice cereal. The first try wasn’t exactly a success, however since then she’s gotten used to the texture and now seems to really like it! She also tried bananas, which she’s taking a little longer to warm up to. We had a great Fathers’ Day, with breakfast on the patio and dinner with our friends Robert and Holly and their daughter Mira.

4 months and two weeks, Camille communicates

With conviction.

With conviction.

Camille has always been good at letting us know when she’s unhappy or when she doesn’t like something, but lately she has gotten pretty good at telling us she’s happy or excited too. If we walk into a room holding her, she’ll sometimes start kicking her legs and squealing, and blowing raspberries because she’s excited about something she sees. Usually this is something colorful or shiny, or the dog (she LOVES the dog), or something random like the coffee machine, hands down her favorite small appliance. She’s also begun making long, eloquent speeches, made up completely of vowels and punctuated with raspberries. She’s a hoot. She’s also very into the computer and especially the keyboard. She wanted to add her own message below, notice for the most important parts she utilized the caps lock. She also designated a tag for the post.

Week 18

Monday, June 1st, 2009 | Baby, Camille, Family, Outdoors | 3 Comments

How time is flying! It’s hard to believe we only have about a month left here in ABQ. We’re trying to enjoy all the great things the southwest has to offer while we still can. On Saturday we went out to breakfast at one of our favorite spots with a big patio to enjoy the Albuquerque sun, then we went on a hike with some friends in the Sandia foothills. Sunday we had another couple and their daughter over for brunch on our patio. While we didn’t check any items off our long to-do list, it was a great weekend nonetheless.

Camille is growing as fast as ever. New developments this week include a fascination with food and drinks, she lunges for just about anything we’re holding, and, inconveniently, a new interest in hair-pulling.
