First Chicken

After Lillian's 6 month check up the pediatrician said any food is fine to feed her (except honey), so we started with chicken.  Below is a picture of her eating Earth's Best chicken and sweet potatoes.  Shortly after this picture was taken she had a melt down because she was so exhausted.  Literally 2 minutes after we took this pic she was asleep in my arms.  So the first try wasn't so great.  She only got 3 bites down.

So the next night I decided to heat up the rest of her Chicken and Sweet Potatoes.  After heating it, I tested it to see if it was warm enough and it tasted like chalk:(  So, after that I made my own chicken, apples, sweet potatoes and leeks for Miss Lillian.  Below are the pictures of her eating "Momma's cooking".  Makes me feel so good about preparing her food!  It's so worth the time:)

She ended up eating it ALL and really liking chicken.  Now, what meat should we try next?

Family Fun at Home

Lillian is so much fun these days!  Here's a few pictures of us lounging around the house as a family. 

Labor Day

Fun times at home on Labor Day!

Lillian's first Game Day!!!

Since the UA game was at 11:00 and it was 100 degrees outside, we decided to sell our tickets to the game and chill at the house!  We did go to a friends for the Bama game just to get out for a bit, but we came home afterwards and enjoyed some "down" time!  Of course Lillian will be wearing 2 outfits almost every Saturday since we are a house divided, but she looks pretty cute in whatever she wears.  Other than the outcome of the UGA game, it was a great day:-)



Lillian's Christening...and much more

August 28th, 2011 was a big day!  Lillian was Christened at Riverchase United Methodist Church by Dr. Jim Savage and Tony joined the church too.  It was also Nana's birthday.  So needless to say we did lots of celebrating.

 *It is so special at RUMC that if you are a member of the choir and your child is Christened, they stand (see in the background).  A very special day and an overwhelming feeling:-)

 Lillian wore the same gown I wore on August 31st 1980 for my Christening!

 Looks like Lillian is throwing up a peace sign:-)

THE GUNTERS

Father/Daughter time

Just love this picture:-)



First Foods

Enjoy the wonderful faces of Lillian as she tastes her first "real" foods:

Carrots

Carrots seemed to be a success:-)

Peas

 Not so sure about peas in the pic above....

 Let me try another bite.....

Not so bad!  ha!

I don't have pictures of all the other foods she has tried so far, but she is not a picky eater...that's for sure!  Just like her Momma and Daddy:-)  She's liked bananas, sweet potatoes, apples, pears, sqaush and peaches!  Miss Lillian is so much fun to watch grow and change every day, it seems.  Parenthood is absolutely amazing:-)
