WHAT SOFIA EATS

Today's breakfast consisted of rice cereal and ripe bananas. One thing I've learned with her breakfast foods is: Cereal without bananas = yuck.  Cereal with bananas = awesome. Sofia has been doing great with her baby food ever since we started, I'm so proud of her!  I was just talking about how funny it is that with most babies you'll have to do the, "here comes the birdie/airplane brrrrr brrrrr" thing to get them to open their mouths.  With Sofia, it's the exact opposite.  She will SCREAM if you don't shovel the food in her mouth fast enough.  Ready and waiting.  Aggressive eater.  (I wonder where she gets that from). I've been meaning to post more of Sofia's meals on the blog for any of you going through the same thing and wondering what types of foods are suitable for a 6 month old.  We still breastfeed at morning and in the evening but make sure she has at least 2-3 "real-people" meals a day now.  I think she's an ad...
As some of you know, I'll be heading down to the SXSW festival in Austin tonight and have developed an all-around guide for anyone traveling to a music festival this summer.  SXSW isn't a camping festival, so you don't have to worry about tents, food, or any other outdoors-y gear like that.  I'm actually remotely thankful that we'll be in a hotel this year because my growing pregnant belly wouldn't enjoy sleeping on cold ground much right now.  (As much as I do enjoy that). Here's what's coming with me to the fest: - DSLR AND SLR camera.  (Told ya I couldn't make up my mind.) - Sunglasses   because you can never find them easy enough or cheap enough once you're down there. - One zip up hoodie  Austin is 80 degrees during the day but it's 60 at night. - Thrift store skirts   Don't blind fellow concertgoers with your white, Chicagoan gams. - Backpack purse      So much easier than a shoulder bag. -  Flats and Sandals   ...
