The first *REAL* food!

So here is the big day!! The doc advised us that we could start Grayson on his first "real" foods at roughly 5 and 1/2 to 6 months, so here we are about mid-June starting him on what is now his favorite dish - SWEET POTATOES!!! Yum Yum!! Heh... you can tell how ready we were with the dixie cup instead of a kiddie cup or plate - EEK! And I think we rummaged up that spoon out of Grandma Calabrese's "extras" drawer! Thanx Grandma C!!! More on what is up with the Kleinknight Family will follow these pix at the end!! Hooray!! Love to all!! T, C & G!!!

I think he was pretty stunned... Yes ladies and gentlemen - we have achieved that deer in the headlights look - oh my!! What is my mommy doing?!?!

Not really sure if these looks are all in apprehension or?? It sure is funny seeing his face from one moment to the next though!! Curtis and I were nearly in tears trying to keep from laughing! Baby Gray has such an expressive face, although sometimes it can be hard to figure out just what for sure he is expressing!!! I think at the end however he was purty OK!!

And there you have it!! A BIG BIG HUZZAH!!!

What a proud mama and a stunned little man!!

As for us, let's see! I mananged to whip out three units of multicultural classes in three weeks in the evenings in May and daddy got some quality time with Grayson! Hooray! Then I moved on to philosophy and nutrition right afterwards and am finishing them up as I type!! Managed to keep my A's still, and landed a nursing scholarship which may let me cut back my hours at work, that is if I can find a good position to move into or working something out with my boss - keep your fingers crossed for us everyone!! Gotta figure out what to do for August through December because the nursing classes are going to be pretty heavy! Meanwhile, we managed to work in a family vacation to Morro Bay and Montery and we all really grooved on getting the time to see the coast, and show it off to my cousin Tori from Kentucky who came out to help watch baby while I am gettin' slammed in class! HOORAY!! Hopefully we can get some of those pics posted soon. At least we are TOO behind, these being about a month and 1/2 old I think!! Time sure flies and we hope its all been as great out there for our family and friends as it has been for us! Oh, we also had an awesome camping trip for Father's Day with Grandma Gale, Tori and the Radtke bunch too! I think we have pix of that too in the camera, which sure holds a lot! So, maybe in a week or so (once my philo class is over!) I can get a few more out and share what is up!! Love to all of you, wherever you are and in whatever you are up to! Tris, Curt and Gray!!
