Another BIG mention

So - not usually one to post twice in a day, but we had big unexpected news to share! Elise ate food tonight, and she LOVED it! Brian and I were noticing over the last couple of weeks that she had about every sign she was ready for food other than being able to actually speak that she was wanting it...and then tonight as I was trying to place bites of chicken in my mouth while she was on my lap, she kept opening her mouth and trying to get my food! I mean REALLY! So, we thought why not try, Owen was 5 1/2 months when he ate, she's 5 - so worse case, we'd just wait a little longer...well, needless to say - she was a big fan, ate all the rice cereal I'd made her and kept opening her mouth for the spoon even before I could put more on it! She made very little mess, and what was left on her cute little face was taken with a big ol' thank you lick from Maggie! It was pretty fun, Brian of course took pictures, and Owen held the bowl - he told her he got his birthday dinner and she'd gotten her first dinner, pretty cute! 

We'll post some pics once we've downloaded! 

Oh - and as if this wasn't enough fun - Elise has also decided she knows how to roll multiple times to actually get somewhere! wow!
