Rice Cereal, Shmrice Shmereal

So.... according to our pediatrician, Eleanor is showing all sorts of signs that she is ready to start tasting foods... last week, we thought it would be fun to introduce rice cereal to see how she took to the idea (keep in mind, this child has tasted NOTHING besides her momma's milk and Mylecon since the day she was born)...

So cameras out, BJ and I were ready to make some great memories of watching her enjoy every last bite... enjoy these pictures as Eleanor makes it VERY obvious how she feels about rice cereal.

All started off great... she was wide-eyed and adorable watching Momma mix the little meal...
And our first bite!!!
You can tell she was quite skeptical :)...
Success - it stayed in her mouth!! (for about 3 seconds...)
Going in for bite #2.... Eleanor gives Momma the stiff arm! No, thank you...
Then proceeds to dump out every last bit from her mouth....
So we change settings.... literally, we were dying laughing at our drama queen....
"Y-U-C-K-Y Momma!"
"Seriously, this stuff is gross... not again?!""You are making me want to gag...."
"I can't believe you actually thought I would like this.... you don't know me at all." (While shaking her head in disappointment... bahahaha!)
Basically, the entire experience was HILARIOUS! We tried again a few days later to no avail.... she hates the stuff!!! Oh well, maybe we will try oatmeal :). Little girl, you rock.

How funny! Harper was the same way! She hated all kinds of cereal. I started putting a tiny bit of applesauce or pears in it to get her to eat it... which might be why my child has such a huge sweet tooth! OOPS!

Cheerleading Tryouts

If you have ever been through any sort of team tryout, audition, or interview, you know the waiting period can be a little bit stressful.... and well, that gives you an idea of how the hunt for our reception location has been since our engagement. BJ and I wanted to find a location that we felt "suits" us... so, the search began a while ago, to say the least. Enjoy this process alongside of us: 1. Dallas Museum of Art--who wouldn't want to have their reception here? The Hamon Atrium is absolutely perfect for the bride and groom who like to work with bare bones--slate floors, concrete infrastructure, and a 5 story glass wall with colorful blown glass cascading down. Not only that, but it really taps in to BJ's "artistic" side. So, we get all worked up over the DMA to find out that well, weddings are taking back seat due to the arrival of King Tut. Yes, He and all his artefactual glory are coming to Dallas in October, and well, until about 2 weeks ago, wedding

The Sister of Honor...

Its time for our readers to get to know some of our bridal party... and there is no better place to start than with your maid of honor!   For those of you who don't know my younger sister Katie, growing up she was my sidekick, my stage-hand, my monkey that would bang the cymbals if I asked.... basically, if I was the center of attention, she was right there to introduce me, applaud me, or be my partner in crime.   So now as we have both "grown" up, and its time for me to make the biggest decision of my life, it means the world to me that there Katie will be.... right by my side, my-stage hand, making me look better and supporting me as I change my last name once and for all. Just so we are clear, there was, however, one time when I was furious that Katie shared my stage.... when I was about 6 years old I was determined I would be a childhood star.  So my parents, indulging me in this dream, let me audition for a kids movie called "The Donut Man".  Katie, 3 at th

Crowdsourced Group Gift Guide 2020

Okay, so admittedly I am not a blogger in the sense that I do not actually know what I am doing.... so friends, bear with me - humor me, maybe - as I attempt to simply put all of the amazing ideas that so many people shared with me when I asked about gifts for Tripp, my 9 year old son, this Christmas.  I'll start with this - there are the usual suspects that if they were recommended once, they were recommended a dozen times... and it would come as no surprise, I imagine, that they included all things Lego, Nerf and _______ boards.   But there we tons of other ideas that were honestly new, to me, and I would love to share them with you! I've put them in somewhat of a category... and linked them all! Let me know what you purchase or if you have other ideas to add to this awesome resource!  Hope this is a blessing to all us parents of boys, ages 8-13 , shopping this season!
