It's really a gratifying feeling seeing you eat your veggies! I mean, sure you ask for cookies and chips for breakfast (and no, I don't give them to you) but when presented with veggies you do your share of eating. Even eagerly opening your mouth and chasing the spoon full of veggies on it if we aren't fast enough to feed you.
Mommy really tried hard to make sure you love your veggies. From 6 mos. and on, I gave you a variety of strained veggies, and I've made a concerted effort to serve you with fruits and veggies every day. Most days, you have adequate servings of fruits and veggies, even though we may lack variety sometimes: we're partial to carrots and broccoli. But I've just recently discovered you love green beans, snap peas, peas, even cauliflower.
I am very happy. I make sure I savor my veggies around you too, to encourage love of veggies even more.
I hope this doesn't change as you grow older.

Smile and Laugh
Reposted from my main blog.
Had a really good Mom's Day on Sunday. Had good food, conversation, did I mention the food?
Plus, something I dreaded would happen didn't end up happening. In fact, quite the opposite occurred and I was very pleasantly surprised. I know I'm not posting much of consequence, but you'd be bored with what I'm obsessed with right now anyway. Suffice to say that life is good, I'm itching to finish school. Our last day will be next week! I should get 1 A and 1 B. That's good enough for me.
Here's a picture of the three generations of Mom/Daughter sets. Taken on Mom's Day. I heart my family!
And for a good laugh, and a big clue to my current obsession, here's a video:

Dentist Visit
I forgot to write that two weeks ago, you visited a dentist for the first time!
Great office, it was made especially for little kids. I have never seen a more child-friendly office, with a video game nook, carpeted walls, and floor and a forest decor. Lots and lots of toys and books. Dr. Dino is great! I didn't know he would turn out to be Filipino either. :)
Inevitably, you cried while we held your mouth open so he could look in. But when we started to sing the Barney I love you song, you immediately went quiet and then went, "again!" through the doctor's hand in your mouth after we were finished. It came out sounding "agah!" but it was so hilarious.
No cavities, just a little plaque build up. Your next appointment's in October. :)
