Kinley

Last night I was putting dinner on the table and she started her shrieking and staring at me. Ugh, kid let me just get dinner on the table and I will get you. SSSHHRRRIIIEEEEKKKK, even louder as if to say "pick me up or I will shatter every window in this house, not to mention your hearing!" I picked her up to save the windows and glass door and put her in her bumbo seat on the table in front of me and that is how I ate dinner! She was happy as a lark, just watching. Stinker. I decided to feed her real food. I gave her pears and cereal. She wasn't much of a fan but managed to choke down maybe two tablespoonsful. She is so funny, poor thing, she gags like I do when I eat pudding. I hate the way it feels in the back of my throat and that is just what she looks like. We will keep working on it. She is 5 and 1/2 months old and not real interested in food! She can't nurse forever!!!! Maybe she will be one of those kids who skips baby food and goes straight to table food. Who knows. Turkey!
This morning after I fed her she stayed awake and just looked right in my eyes and smiled her big milky smile with her teeth showing and I couldn't resist her! I really needed to get in the shower but I absolutely could NOT put her down! Bubba was like, did you shower already and I said no, thinking 'do I look like I have?' but didn't say it. Anyway, I put her on her blanket on the floor and layed with her for a few minutes. She just talked and smiled and reached for my face. I love all her chub! I can't resist her chunky thighs, she is ticklish on them too, it is so funny. She is such a good baby, minus the shriek!
