He was a little fidgety for his photo.

Solid food fail

We were excited to offer Jesse his first bowl of cereal tonight.

We mixed the rice slurry, but Jesse was displeased.

I think he felt somehow betrayed.

After much dribbling and a little whining, he got a bottle of thinned-out gruel, which he finished.

Setting up the high chair

I opened the high chair this afternoon in anticipation of starting foods.

It looks much bigger with the tray.

His legs are too short to reach the footrest.

Fun with pets

So, yesterday Jesse had fun hanging out with Ginny.

Today it was Thunder’s turn.

School pictures!

When I dropped off Jesse this morning, I saw the sign saying the photography company would be at day care Thursday and Friday afternoon, before I could get there.

I checked, and the director said she could show me my packet in advance.

Of course I bought them all. Including the CD with the three photos (each in color, black and white and sepia).

The class picture wasn’t included on the CD, only as a print — which is fine, because apparently Jesse had better things to do than look at the camera. His four teachers are, from left, Miss Linnette, Miss Lili, Miss J.J. and Miss Sara.

(By the way, Jesse’s friend Kai-who-cries is second from the right, in plaid. Jesse’s probably telling him to remember to smile.)
