First Pears; "Uh Oh" (or "Uh Uh")

Grace and Chance tried their first pears last week. Mommy had been looking for more soft foods they could eat, and these were a success. Grace likes them, but Chance LOVES them.

In these videos, you can also hear Grace say "Uh Oh!" which she has been saying for a few weeks. (Daddy says she has a vocabulary of about 30 words now; Mommy stopped counting at about 15!) In the last video, you can hear Chance's version of "Uh Oh," which is "Uh Uh!"





Other Milestones:

*On the night before her birthday, Grace took FOUR STEPS! Grandpa Boespflug and Daddy witnessed it. Chance has taken a partial step here and there. Neither is walking on a constant basis, though.

*On the eve of their birthday, the twins BOTH SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME! A miracle indeed!

*At their "well baby" 1-yr-old visit to the pediatrician, they weighed 16.4 (Grace) and 18.10 (Chance). The pediatrician says they're healthy, and, and we quote, "You have small babies." Grace is primarily in the 5th percentile, as is Chance--except for his head, which is 50th percentile! Maybe he's not walking yet because he's having trouble balancing that large head/brain. :)

Have you tried soft tofu cut into small cubes, avacado, slightly mashed blueberries, well cooked carrots, mango, eggs, slightly cooled cheese grits (they have the texture of polenta), well cooked pasta, grated cheese, watermelon, or Mum Mums?
