Lola's 1st teeth! Being the overly
ambitious type, she decided to get one top tooth, followed by the bottom two, all on the very same day. If you look very hard, you can see her top tooth...
She also started eating big people food last week, and this week she is feeding herself with a spoon! She does very well...




On Sunday, we made our own teething
biscuits from a
recipe that we found in
Wondertime Magazine. The kids had fun playing with them, but they ended up more like home made teething rings. They were so hard! Like cement. Or wood. Milo didn't want to give his up when it came to bath time, so we figured that there would be no harm with him taking it into the bath with him. After all, we were only having bath time for the play portion of it and were not going to be using soap. So into the tub the cookie went, and even after a 15 minute soak, the darn thing didn't dissolve. In fact, it was still as hard as it was before, and now Milo was insisting on taking it to bed with him! We drew the line there with the fear that his precious lovey would be replaced by a disgusting cookie that he would carry everywhere with him for the next 3 years because it would just not dissolve or crumble. I will, however, keep the dough recipe on hand for Christmas ornaments next year. Or better yet, when the kids are done
gnawing on and playing with these we can paint them and add ribbons and not bother with making more.
Aren't they cute though?

And they made Milo happy...

Shhhh, it's a secret recipe...
