Avocado

Today for lunch Lila and I decided to fix Griffin his first real food. Avocado. He loved it (as I'm sure you can tell).

For those that don't know, I started making baby food for Lila, and I love it. I don't do cereal for my kids (except for their first taste, and I use it to thicken some other foods) so their first food is avocado. They are totally healthy and full of good fats. They are also so easy to make. When Lila was little I made a bunch of it, along with other things, and froze them. This time I am mainly just doing fresh. It is really so easy (and healthy), and I love being able to do that for them.

If you've never tried it, I would strongly encourage you to. It really is simple and kinda fun!

In other news, Griffin got his first haircut on Wednesday when Uncle Joshy came to visit. Don't you love how I cut all of his hair out of this picture?!? His Mohawk was getting freakishly long and was starting to curl over on itself, so I decided a snip-snip was in order. Josh held him and I just trimmed off about 1/4 of an inch of the top of the Mohawk. It looks pretty good.

I can't believe I had to cut his hair this early. As you all might remember, Jax was completely (and totally) bald until sometime past a year. Then we ended up buzzing his curls away at about 2 years old.

Sunny had her first hair cut, which was just a trim, at about 2 1/2.

Lila still hasn't had a hair cut, though she could use one. She is looking a little shaggy and has a mullet going on when her hair is straight. I've attempted to even it out several times, but I always chicken out.

And so, Griffin beats Lila at the hair cutting game and also edges out all of his siblings for the honor of the earliest hair cut. (I'll try to put a picture of it soon, but I promise, you won't be able to tell a difference :)
