HALLOWEEN
Our first Halloween with the little munchkin was so much fun....for mommy. Jocelyn looked adorable in her little cow costume complete with bell, and tolerated it well, but she wasn't overly thrilled by much of anything throughout the day, except all the people we got to go visit. Trick or Treating she could have cared less, good thing we only went to 3 houses. I had my own little photo shoot with her in the morning and got some cute shots because 1) she had just barely been put in her costume, and 2) I had the shiny silver camera out and that means cheesy grins!

Saturday Josh got alot done. He finished clearing out the booxes in our room and hung our pictures and such. It looks much better with deocrations and floor. Then he went outside and helped my dad level out a dirt mound next to the driveway so we can have more places to park. Since it was a nice day Joey and I went out to visit them a couple times, and she looked so jealous she didn't get to play in the dirt or ride in the wheel barrel.
Now my woe, and I'd appreciate any advice any of you may have. At Joey's 9 month appointment a couple weeks ago the Pediatrician recommended giving her Stage 3 baby food for the texture, and also said that she could eat most of what we are eating now. So we've let her sample more stuff from our plates, and of course given her the stage 3 foods. At first I thought it was choosing things she didn't like. But yesterday we tried to give her sweet potatoes- a favorite, and the same consistency she's had before- and she wouldn't even eat those. So she'd rather eat her baby snacks and big people food, which is fine for the most part, but she needs the other stuff too. *Sigh*

Honestly friend none of my kids have liked or would even touch the stage 3 foods. I think for the most part it's because after eating the stuff that has flavor who'd want to go back to the bland stuff. Just make sure she gets a variety of big people stuff. Canned green beans, bananas, mashed tatoes, canned pasta, and tiny bits of hot dogs (with teeth of course) were always at hit at our house. And I wouldn't worry to much about variety either. Our pediatrician told us with Trace (because I was worried about him only eating green beans) that 95% of the kids she sees live off of hot dogs or chicken nuggents until the age of 4. She'll be fine as long as she's eating something.
