Expanding the menu

Amanda has decided she wants to branch out into other food groups; especially the fruit and vegetable category. She is now eating real apples - not applesauce - real cut up apples. It proves my theory that she didn't need a feeding specialist - she just needed a drive to try something new. Yesterday, she ate a real carrot. Wonders never cease. She is also trying the daily smoothy her brother Caleb makes for the family. I especially like the way Amanda's mustache turns up on the sides. Very well groomed I must say.



As you can see, this was the blueberry special. She does love the smoothy thing and keeps saying "me" or "I" to get some for herself. She can't decide which pronoun she likes better.

The other day, she also got to spend time with "uia" aka Julia. She loves her much older friend also from China. They have a bond...




Got to have some girl chat time you know! They both have 3 older brothers.



Last but not least in the random things post that has been made, apparently everything can be made into a guitar or a violin as Amanda is demonstrating here:



What is it about my children and stringed instruments?
