Tempe's First Food

March 22, 2010 Tempe got here first taste of food at supper! We said our prayer: Thank you for the food we eat Thank you for the world so sweet Thank you for the birds that sing Thank you God for everything! And then she ate her first bowl of rice cereal. She wasnt sure of it at first and it took a little whle but she must have liked it because she ate the whole bowl! I think she had a hard time knowing that the spoon didn't stay in her mouth the whole time like a bottle but she will learn. After she ate she sat at the table while mommy and daddy ate their supper, spaghetti. We are starting her out eatting at the table and staying there until we are all finished that way she will start with good manners and habits. We are also teaching her the sign for more, please, and thank you. She already knows the sign for milk and next we will work on finished and then mommy and daddy. This was just another of many first for her and a wonderful one. We are so excited to have her in our life and look forward to many more first. Because as long as there are first that means she is here with us finally!! Oh, and after eatting she slept for the whole night!!!!
