She Crawls! She Eats!

Oh, what a difference a day makes. Zoe has been rocking back and forth on her knees for weeks now. Every day I was thinking, "today is the day she'll crawl". Well, today it finally happened! Mom and I were trying all sorts of things for her to crawl to. We tried ourselves, we tried food, we tried toys, we even tried flowers from around the house. What did she end up crawling toward? A magazine. :-) Watch her crawl here.

Not only did Zoe decide to crawl today, she also chose today to eat several different foods at lunch and dinner. For lunch she tried bananas, blueberries, raspberries, and noodles. She wasn't too excited about any of them, but she ate a few bites. For dinner, she had more noodles, blueberries, and banana puffs. Again, not too excited about any of it. I gave her an ear of corn to suck on, which bought me a little more time to enjoy my dinner. Then, my mom told me that my sisters just loved baked beans as babies, and maybe we should try some for Zoe. I took some off my plate, mushed them up, and let her try them. Let me tell you, that girl opened her mouth again and again for more beans. She absolutely loved them!
