The Stupid Voice in the Background...

Yeah, so here are some recent home videos... with the world's STUPIDEST Mommy-voice in the background. (I therefore apologize - but the baby is cute enough to make up for it, I hope!)

September 21st - Making her new funny face and saying lots of "da-da-da"s:



September 28th - Casey's version of clapping, which is her newest trick:



Casey has become a little bit of a mime lately. She can't fully copy our actions, but she knows how to wave hello and good-bye, sticks out her tongue when we do so, tries a silly clap as evidenced above, and has a LOT to say, even if only she knows what it means!

In other news, I have LOVED making baby foods. It's not necessarily that I don't trust Gerber and the like, but I feel like I can do better and healthier (at least, I hope I am!). I love that up until she hit solids, Casey Sue was an exclusively breastfed baby. And now I can continue with a feeling of wholesomeness, homey-ness, and nurturing in picking fresh, local fruits and veggies and making them into purees that my baby enjoys. I've never been a big health-food nut myself, but I've got to admit, these look and taste (yes, I have tasted most!) delish. Tonight, however, presented a whole new ballgame when I pureed organic chicken, potato, sweet potato, and onion together. Ahhhhh, nothing like liquid meat to make you rethink what you want for dinner...

It certainly looks as though Casey Sue is thriving very well!! She is such a little doll, and I enjoyed seeing her in action very, very much! Thank you so much for a glimpse into her/your lives! Love to all 3 of you!
