Friday - A Day of Firsts for Robert

FIRST SOLID FOOD

Robert is just about 6 months old now. Kelsey felt he was ready for his first taste of solid food, but held off a few days so that we would be here for this important "first."

We made quite a production out of this rite of passage. Chris was shooting video over Kelsey's shoulder while I took still photos.


Here's Robert taking his very first bite of rice cereal.


He likes it!


Big Sister Clara got to feed him a few bites, too.



Judging by his reaction to these first bites, Robert is going to be a good eater, just like his daddy.



FIRST DRIVING LESSON

Robert got a new toy today. Just like his daddy, he's now driving a Jeep! It's actually a walker, and he seemed to catch onto the idea pretty well.

First, he starts the engine.



Then he adjusts the rear view mirror.



And off he goes.


He needs to work on keeping the road rage under control, though!



FIRST TIME TO SIT IN HIGH CHAIR AT A RESTAURANT

In the evening, we headed over to Clara's favorite restaurant for dinner. She loves to eat "sour chicken" (sweet and sour chicken) at a little Chinese restaurant near their house. The owner is a nice lady who gives Clara lots of attention and lots of extra fortune cookies.

Robert was happy to be in his car seat, heading over to the restaurant.



Robert sat in a high chair at the restaurant, which was another "first" for him. He didn't see the point in it, though, and soon ended up in Mama's lap.
