a first time for everything


Over the past several days, Kai has experienced a lot of "firsts". Last Friday, he went swimming in our pool for the first time. He was not too sure at first, but eventually starting warming up to it.  A baby's face does not lie:
On Saturday, we took Kai to Lone Pine Farm for the first time. For those of you who don't know, Lone Pine is our favorite local farm and growers of our beloved "bodacious corn". They have wonderful fruits and veggies during the summer, along with various attractions (animals). I think they'll see a lot of us this summer (free entertainment for baby)!
Kai enjoyed his first popsicle! 
(Don't worry, it's one of those 100% fruit juice ones)
It was pretty funny watching Joe "teach" Kai how to lick it!
Last, but certainly not least, today Kai fed himself Mac N Cheese with a fork for the first time! 
He's been doing pretty good getting thick stuff to his mouth on a spoon, so today I just gave him the bowl and fork and off he went!
As you can tell, he was pretty proud of himself!
OK, so he didn't eat the whole bowl with a fork. But he did give a good effort of about 3-4 bites before he resorted to his hands to get it done faster!
