Liana goes braceless
After a year and half of braces, initially accompanied by an overnight headgear, Liana's braceless and her teeth are perfect. We go back to the dentist next week to pick up her retainer which she'll need 24/7 for one year and then overnight for another year...though according to the handout the dentist gave her retainers are FOREVER.

Evelyn eats food
I hemmed and hawed for a few weeks on what Evelyn's first food would be. Nutritionists are moving away from recommending cereal as a first food since it's practically nutritionally void (though today I read
here that cereal may be hard for babies to digest but I'm not overly concerned). We went with
Healthy Times Organic Brown Rice Cereal for the first food and next up we'll be trying homemade sweet potatoes, avocados and then bananas. Guidelines recommend waiting three days between introducing new foods. I am actually super excited to make baby food again especially now that I have a Blendtec.
The pictures are an accurate play by play of what Evelyn thought about eating and cereal. It was all over in about three minutes.
