Somebody Thinks She's Big

I hate to admit it, but mom was right. When I started letting Maddy take bites of whatever I was eating, it was like opening Pandora's Box. Now, she thinks she's big and can eat anything. There are some things she can't have no matter how hard she tries, such as hot wings. (*That would just be a bad idea!!) And then, there are somethings, which I'm sure there is no way she will either A) like it or B) be able to eat it. The Roma tomato that I had on the kitchen table for example that became a lovely Maddy snack when I thought she would just ignore it, or at the most, take one bite and put it down. That poor tomato never stood a chance. She devoured it like it was candy.

So the other day, I had an apple. Baby's don't eat apples, right? Babies eat apple sauce with maybe the occasional soft chunk, but not an apple apple. With hard core and skin... and definitely not a granny smith apple... right?



And certainly after taking a few bites she would put it down...



She's so funny!

And now, for a Christmas bonus. This is from Maddy's first Christmas Eve, when she got her first pair of big girl jammies. *That means not footie pajamas* She's so big I could weep... if I wasn't laughing at her because she doesn't so much care about the jammies as she does the Christmas coke grenade that Ash is drinking.



Maddy sez "MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY"
