First Foods and Skating!

I finally picked up some rice cereal and let Teresa give it a try. I would not say it was love at first taste. We tried it again today, however, and she seemed more accepting of the strange substance! The one most excited about the cereal is Timothy. He likes to help feed Teresa and is intrigued that she is eating food with a spoon now.
Trying her first spoonful.

And a skating update...Timothy has been taking "lessons" (lessons in a very loose sense of the word) for about 2 months now. It is amazing what a little practice can do. After the first day, I thought Troy and I were crazy for signing him up. I had no idea how my back would manage several months of holding up an unsteady skater. Well, Timothy can now stand on his own and today skated his longest distance ever. And when he had the help of what I call the"pusher" (a device to hold onto and help keep balance) he skated all around the rink as if he has been doing this for years. And the icing on the cake, he was having fun and loved skating with his buddy Noah. I will call these lessons a definite success!
