Catching Up

Big news from the past few days:

1) Fiona finally started finger food, and she loves it! That means we spend a lot of time finding Cheerios that have rolled off her tray and wound up in odd places on the floor, but it also means that Fiona can now feed herself while her parents have their food. Definitely a big step.

2) On the less-exciting front, Fiona got her first cold. It isn't too bad--mainly a runny nose and some sneezing, the result of recent east coast weather changes and the fact that we didn't realize we needed an electrical heater in her room at night (since she's too young to curl up under blankets in the crib, which she's toss off as soon as we put them on). We'll see if Andrea or I come down with anything in the next few days; the great thing about kids is you get to encounter a whole new generation of germs.
