July 4th and other stuff!

Good bye Granny!

We spent July 4th up in Dallas with Gianna's Aunt, Uncle and the cousins.

We had to leave Granny on Friday. But before we left, Granny saw first- before Mommy and Daddy- Gianna roll from her back to her front.

We also saw MY Aunt Mary Ellen, Uncle J. and cousin Kelly:

John also wanted me to include this picture of Gianna's first trip to Fry's:

We spent Saturday just resting and on Sunday we got it in gear and started getting ready for our garage sale this Saturday.

And some more firsts- Gianna is now eating solids!!!!! I had planned to wait until AFTER her 6 months checkup, but she couldn't wait. We were sitting down to eat and she was so interested in what we were doing. She wanted (demanded) to be fed! So I fed her some of my water and she was so happy. Then it was not enough ans she wanted MORE! It was a little hard for me to transition to. From now on (at least until she is 18) I will have to worry if she is eating enough, how the food is cooked and what there is for her to eat. Oh well- if parenting were easy everyone would do it!
