Is pulled pork an appropriate baby food? I’m only asking because Lindsay L O V E D it. Jenn noticed how soft and squishy the stuff was, and wondered if it might make for good L eats. It did. Mmm, she said. I guess we’ll have to go back to Hoggy’s more often - oh darn.

On the cognitive development front, we had a great time Friday evening at the swimming pool. As we floated past the kids playing water basketball on our way to the lazy river, L was captivated. After a moment of watching, she knew what had caught her eye - A BAH! (ball, to the uninitiated). It’s so fun to see her apply one of her words! Other recent accomplishments: she clapped her hands, tossed a ball back and forth with Mommy, cruised along the couch, and used a new word - doggie.
