bori :)

Yesterday Mary, Eva and Christian came to visit us :D Eva was a postdoc at Tom's lab, Christian is a prof at NCSU and Mary, their first daughter is 2. They're expecting their second in March :D Tom's former and current lab members were in their reproductive mood last year :D : first us, then Jim and Kristin expecting their first up in Seattle in 6 weeks, and then Eli and Kim also their first one early February and then of course Eva and Christian their second one :D I'm soooo happy for everybody .. we should get together, find a good place to live, set up a lab, where all of us can work and open up our own daycare next to the lab of course, so the kids can learn science immediately :D
oke, enough from the great ideas :D
so they left around 7pm, which was really 10pm for Mary since the time difference. and after they left, Bori was in her good mood :D screaming cause she was enjoying her time :D I'll post a video :D


of course normally she has her pants on, but I took it off for the video, cause she can't stop moving her legs, and it was blocking her... and this way it's easier to see how active she is :D

also some achievements:
I always put her down on her tummy to sleep, cause that's what she got used to in the hospital, as i wrote about it earlier.. and so a week ago in the middle of the night i woke up to a laughing sound that Bori does when she's happy and staring at her toy in her bed ON HER BACK .. yes, she learned how to turn to her back from her tummy :D and she's doing it ever since last weekend.. I think she only skipped one night.. so nowadays I have to get up at 3-4am, to flip her back to her tummy so she'll go back to sleep.. and so she does, really nice and sweet girl .. but sure she enjoys her time during the night :D it's so sweet, I'll try to capture it sometimes soon..
the other thing is that I'm giving some solid food for her now, since i no longer nursing her, so the sooner she's eating solid food the less formula i have to give her.. we've tried rice cerial, but she hates it and I'm not surprised, it has no taste (and of course added salt or sugar is not good, which I agree with actually) .. the second thing I've given her is potato puree, which was OK, she ate it but wasn't too enthusiastic about .. and this week I gave her yam :D sure she enjoys that :D and I don't blame her, it's sweet, good taste.. so that's where we are, her digestion is good, she enjoys it, and I don't have any problem with her .. :D:D:D
here's a little funny stuff for you :D whenever yam is mentioned/on the table, we always say: my two greatest enemies, Rachel Green and complex carbohydrates :D
it's from Friends, when Brad Pitt goes to the Thanksgiving dinner .. :D and Rachel enters with the yam, and Will (Brad Pitt) have this scene how he hates Rachel ..
here is it for you :D I couldn't find just that minute, but the whole scene, the referred funny part is at 2:30-3min :D but the whole piece is quite funny, I love it.. enjoy :D
