O'Baby Love: Ten on Tuesday!

We have a very exciting Ten on Tuesday this week!

1. Snowmageddon 2010 - Texas Style! :)

our front yard and cul-de-sac

camy all bundled up in her stroller

exploring the snow

she's a little apprehensive

...not enjoying the cold!

camy thinks its time to go back inside!

2. Sunday we went to Camy's cousin Ty's 1st Birthday Party. It was a gorgeous day, 75 degrees and sunny, so we spent the majority of time outside. (Yes, the weather went from 75/sunny to SNOW in 48 hrs. Texas.)
Camy spent some time in Ty's swing and LOVED it. We are now in the market for an outdoor infant swing.. not of the race car variety, though!

she was watching her shadow and giggling!! so cute!

3. After two failed attempts at rice cereal in the last 2 weeks (darn tongue-thrust reflex!), Sunday Camy finally ate some.. and she seemed to really enjoy it! It was like something just clicked in her head over the last week and she was now ready for some purees. The last time we tried to feed her, I don't think any cereal even made it past the plane of her lips. This time, she gobbled up the full 2 tablespoons. :) Unfortunately we were too preoccupied with the video camera to take any real photos. One of these days I'll figure out how to load all our videos on the computer!

4. We are one step closer to being able to ditch the infant car seat - Camy can now sit up in restaurant high chairs (with a cover, of course!)!! We tried her out in a high chair at IHOP and she did so well.. and LOVED being up at the table with everyone! She looked so cute sitting up in that chair like a big girl!!! While we were there, she gnawed on a piece of pancake (but I didn't let her get any bites) and she ate some mashed up banana! And boy did she love banana! :)

5. Continuing on her adventure with solid foods - today we gave her some sweet potato puree. Neither her dad or I like sweet potato but this little girl was practically lunging for the spoon!! Who is this girl? She only had about a half an ounce, but after her initial confusion over this new taste and texture, she loved every nibble!

6. Have you seen this video? It cracks me up that its titled "Are women born this way?" My answer? If they aren't, they sure grow into it rather quickly! Camy is a few days shy of being 6 months old and now talks all. the. time. Well, yells. Shrieks. Babbles. Its all the same, right? She'll actually converse with us now, which I love. If you talk to her, she'll holla right back at ya. :) We were cracking people up walking through Target yesterday.. the two of us just happily yelling and squealing back and forth, up and down the aisles. Again, if I knew how to get my videos off the camera and onto the laptop, I'd be able to share the hilarity that is Camy "talking".

7. Did I just say Camy is "a few days shy of being 6 months old"? WHAT?! How can this possibly be? My sweet little chub chub is going to be celebrating her Half-Birthday on Friday. It brings a smile to my face and makes me want to cry, all at the same time. We will be having her 6 months photos taken very soon by the always amazing Lyndsay... so keep your eyes peeled.

8. My silly little girl cracks me up every day. On this particular day last week, she really outdid herself. As I was filling her bathtub, I heard a strong, sucking noise and looked over at Camy expecting to see her fingers in her mouth. Nope. This is what I found:
