Bananas and Books

Mireya got to try bananas the other day. She loves them! She was fairly so so about rice cereal, but she definitely likes bananas. She is to the point with food where she sometimes has little hissy fits when she wants to eat ours and we won't let her. Instead, we give her bananas. It will be fun to try out other kinds of baby food and see what she likes. I had no idea watching someone eat could be so entertaining!

Mireya is also starting to really enjoy reading. We read to her every night before bed and sometimes during the day. She loves to help turn the pages and most of all to eat the books. She's at the age where she eats everything, but some things just seem to have an allure to them.



Side note: Has anyone else had a problem with their baby gagging themselves? Mireya sticks her little fingers in her mouth and quite often makes herself spit up. If you take her hands out of her mouth, she puts them right back in. I can hear her doing it when we are driving around in the car. We have always had difficulty controlling her spit up, but this new development makes the problem so much worse. Hopefully it's just a phase...
