Daddy's home!

What a perfect summer evening: warm temps with enough of a breeze to keep most of the bugs away. So, for dinner, we grilled steaks and ate out on the patio table.

Of course, what really made it perfect is having Daddy home from Ft. Ripley. Part way through dinner, AJ set down his fork and sat quietly. I asked him if he was okay. He answered, "I'm just looking at my family."

Sydney, meanwhile, just kept shoveling food in her mouth. She's so happy to eat like a big girl. Our once finicky eater has gotten far less picky, just as long as she can feed herself. For example, Sydney used to refuse any kind of babyfood vegetable. Tonight, we put corn, peas and carrots on her tray and she gobbled them up! Daddy's mashed potatoes were also a huge hit.

I haven't gotten a close look inside her mouth in the last few days, but can tell more teeth are pushing their way through.
