Hailey & Cherrios

We have been trying to get Hailey to like cheerios, mostly because that is really the only thing that she can eat other than baby food. So its been a process and she kinda likes them now, but really only when i put them in her mouth and when I'm holding her. So lately I have been putting her on the floor, giving her a bowl of cheerios and trying to help her learn that she can put them in her mouth HERSELF and I dont need to be holding her and feeding them to her in order for her to eat them :)
So here is the story about Hailey and the cheerios on this day told by pictures ...

well after this picture, ha ha Hailey on her tummy, she really doesnt like this position, she would rather be sitting, but we ARE working on it....
today Tyler and I were trying to help her learn what crawling was, so we were both on the floor and she kinda got the hang of it, she was definitely kicking those chubby legs of her, she didnt really make it anywhere but she made a half circle! so yay for her! but it was fun teaching her something with Tylers help!

anyways, back to the cheerios story
so there is the bowl.
right when i give her the bowl, she takes it and it seems like she doesnt even see the cheerios in it because all she does is grab the bowl and start chewing on it and playing with it



see the cheerios, yeah, ok.....
so I point them out to her
she takes notice
reaches for them....
and YAY!!! she got one!!!
and double YAY she made it to her mouth!!!!!
that was the only one that she ate, then went straight back to her bowl
and her chewing of it :)


oh well, all in time im sure. Shes just funny to watch. I love all the little itty bitty things that they have to learn and its so fun to be right there capturing them on camera!!!
I LOVE IT!
