Milestones: Green Beans, Ear Infection & More Teeth

Lila, the last two weeks have been eventful for you!
Last week you tried green beans for the first time! As long as I mix them with some rice cereal you will eat them, but by themselves you squint your eyes and shake your head!



Mmm, mmm, good!


You also managed to make it 6 months, 2 weeks and 5 days before getting your first ear infection. We were concerned that you were getting a respiratory infection, so momma & daddy took you to the doctor only to find out that you had a cold on top of an ear infection in your left ear. You cannot stand the antibiotic that we have to give you twice a day. You should have seen us trying to wrestle you in to taking it the first night! What a sight! We got smart and started putting it in your food and you were as good as new in 2 days.

Lastly, this week got off to a sad start for me. Sunday night I had to make the decision to wean Lila. She now has 3 teeth on bottom and two on top. After two bites within two minutes I could not take any more. Lila was not thrilled to take a bottle from me before bed the first couple of nights, but I think she has finally accepted our new arrangement. This is a milestone that came much more quickly than I had anticipated. I love you Lila Grace!

Awwww....our little Lila-bug is growing up and eating Big Girl food. I'm glad you are feeling better from your ear infection. You should not have bitten your mommy, little girl. I know you didn't mean to hurt her. Those little tuskers were hurting. Just one of the hurdles of growing up. Nana loves you!

Big girl! You are growing up way too fast.
I think you could like green beans -Nene will make you some green bean casserole. That will solve the eating vegetable issue.

Love you sweet girl!
