Yummy in the Tummy! (5 months old!)

At her 5 month check up, Ruth was about 14 lbs and 26.5 inches!

In addition to nursing regularly, Ruth has been eating rice cereal for over a month now. She eats it every night when Cam and I have dinner. At her check up, the doc said to go ahead and add 2 oz of vegetables for breakfast, trying a new vegetable every 3-5 days.

I blend the veggies myself for her to eat, and since the doc said there weren't any vegetables she couldn't try, we started with avocado.
SHE LOVES IT! Next we'll be trying carrots...

This picture is Ruth after having her rice cereal last night.

Grandma says she's bringing a few bibs with her next week ... looks like Ruthie (and mom and dad) will be needing them!
