Popsicles and Peaches

Anna Kate seems to have a little teething trouble every now and then, so I am always on the lookout for a new solution to provide her with some relief. One big hit for her is sucking on an ice cube that I hold up to her mouth. I think the coldness helps her gums feel better. However, this process is messy and usually very wet! So I came up with a genius plan...make ice popsicles! I got a popsicle mold from Target and filled it with water. And Voila...Ice Popsicles. I just hold the popsicle and she sucks away to her heart's content. 

Anna Kate also started eating peaches today. Like her dad, she loved that peachy taste and kept opening her mouth for more. It seems she is a big fruit eater now conquering peaches, pears, prunes, applesauce, and bananas. She still loves her veggies too with the exception at times of peas...but I don't blame her a bit.

What an excellent idea! Can you believe that Lindley doesn't have a single tooth yet? I will file this away for future use!
