Music class and finger foods! What a big day!!

Nathan went to his first music class today! It is a Kindermusik school called Yellow Bird Music. A lot of his friends from our Mommy & Me group were there and everyone really seemed to have a good time. He got to sing, dance, beat rhythm sticks together, bang on drums, ring bells... it was a lot of fun!!! We signed him up for Saturday classes for 12 weeks. It will be nice to have a fun activity that Jeff & I can take him to together! Monday nights we have swim class, but Jeff works so he misses out on that.

Today Nathan ate finger foods for the first time!! Gerber banana puffs. Since banana seems to be his favorite food at this point I thought that would be a good flavor to get. He really liked them... once he figured it out. The first one he ate, he made a funny face... the same funny face that he makes at the first bite of ANYTHING we feed him. Then after he figured out that he liked how they tasted... then it was a matter of figuring out how to get them in his mouth. Instead of grasping them between his thumb and finger, he kept grabbing them with his whole hand and then they would be stuck in his palm inside his little fist and he had trouble figuring out how to get it in his mouth from there. A few of them melted to mush inside his little hand! But once he figured out the mechanics of it... and stopped throwing them everywhere... he really seemed to like them!!

Too bad I don't have pictures from either of these exciting firsts!!
I did not have my camera on me today. Bad Mommy!!
