"Mommy Lesson" of the week....

Yesterday I learned another valuable "Mommy Lesson".....don't make the baby laugh while he is eating squash unless you really enjoy orange spackle all over your kitchen, in your hair, and up his nose! :0) Joel is such a happy boy most of the time, and I love to hear him laugh. He was giggly and talkative yesterday while I was feeding him, and just when I put a big spoonful in his mouth he squealed and laughed and spewed squash everywhere! I can't believe one spoonful of squash could go quite that far! He was pretty pleased with himself. He also discovered that he can smear his hands in his face and then pat his head to get Mom's attention. Feeding times are not exactly relaxing, but he seems to enjoy himself! He's so darn cute though that I don't care how big a mess he makes. As long as he is smiling and laughing, it's fine with me! More later....
