don't throw out the baby with the bath water...

Zane tried his first veggie today - carrots!!! It was very exciting.  We picked out some carrots at the grocery store today, and he anxiously watched as they were steamed, pureed and strained.  He seemed pretty excited about them by the time he got to try them, and even though he made a few weird faces, he ate his whole bowl (maybe 2 whole tablespoons).  He had 4 days of rice cereal followed by 3 days of oatmeal leading up to the carrots.  We're going to puree some more veggies and stock our freezer so he can keep expanding his culinary horizons. 

Everyone was happy after the carrots, and I stuck his little orange face and body in the bathtub.  Then disaster struck in the form of poo in the bathtub!  Apparently all of the extra fiber did its work :)  Maybe we're lucky for making it 5 months, but this was a new one for us!  Needless to say, Zane, his bathtub and the big bathtub are all sparklingly clean now :)  Luckily for his dad, he was conveniently downstairs working while all of the drama ensued.  Seems suspicious if you ask me...
