Marching right along...

Rhea has been busy conquering new milestones this past week. No she hasn't started marching let alone walking yet, in case you took the title literally. But she has been tackling milestone after milestone this past week thus making huge strides in her developmental acheivements...

Karate Kid

Beginning this week she has been showing off some neat karate moves - real cool chopping moves with both her arms.You would be fooled into thinking that they wont hurt you because she is smiling all the time she's at it but if you happen to get too close to her you'd go OUCH!!! coz they are painful!! Sean learnt it the hard way and is now very cautious around her esp. when he tries to play with her hair while drinking milk. I think she's just excited now that she has discovered both her hands and legs and can now hold onto both her toes with her hands. She does it with so much ease I cant help but wonder and wish if I could borrow some of her flexibility.

Real Food = Yummo!!!



We gave Rhea her solids for the first time yesterday. We gave her a spoon of organic rice cereal mixed with formula. Her initial reaction was hilarious. She had this funny expression where she knew that she was fed something other than milk like always but she couldnt quite figure out what. She was trying to suck on the spoon like she does her bottle and was a little frustrated in between that there was a break between getting food in her mouth unlike the bottle here she has a steady stream of milk flowing from start to finish. But overall she loved it and she seemed to keep wanting more but we wanted to take it slow and make sure since it was the first time that she doesnt have any allergies. She did fine yesterday so today maybe she can have lil more than yesterday.

I shall post pictures soon..
