07/17/13: Time with Nana

July 17, 2013

For those of you who care about weeks, Samara is 24 weeks old today. I used to keep track of weeks, but at this point I easily lose track of them because they don't really coincide with months anymore.

Anyway, this week Nana was visiting. At the beginning of July, I started introducing rice cereal to Samara. It went well the first 2 times, but the 2 or 3 days following that she totally rejected it - terrible faces, turning away, and clamping her mouth shut. I decided to give it a rest and was later told by other mommies at playgroup that babies tend to like oatmeal cereal better. So I bought some and decided to give it another try.

In this video, Nana is giving Samara oatmeal for the second day in a row:




I would like to mention that Samara LOVES chewing on straps: the straps on her car seat, in her swing, and in her high chair.




I also decided that it was time to do something with the massive amount of hair that is on Samara's head: PIGTAILS!




Samara looks pretty happy to get her hair off her face. Here is the Instagram version, which I think really highlights this happiness:




And here is full-blown excitement:




After a nice nap, Nana, Samara, and I headed to the mall to get some relief from the crazy heat wave that was going on. Here are some nice shots after lunch:
