Painful Wisdom & Baby Cereal

So...we discovered what could have caused the fever & headaches...
tender gums right above my lower right 
WISDOM TOOTH
omg, can my body give me a break from pain...its been non-stop since I gave birth with at least SOMETHING coming along causing me discomfort. 

Anyways....I decided to introduce baby rice cereal to Mahie
she LOVED it
Although as you can see by the pictures, she's quite a messy eater. Her mouth and tongue are still trying to work together with swallowing, haha. As soon as she saw the spoon approaching for the first time, she started kicking and out of nowhere grabbed the spoon, leaning forward with a wide open mouth. She definitely knew what she was doing, lol. After a while she began to get frustrated with me having to take the spoon away to scoop up more cereal from the bowl. She would scream thinking I was done feeding her. She ate a whole serving & was still hungry for a bottle. 
I was so proud of her...but now that it's the end of the day, we've realized she hasn't "poo"-ed for a while....oh no, I forgot what introducing solids mean...potential CONSTIPATION. So for now, we're thinking of holding off a little longer on the baby rice cereal & banana's we've bought for her.

Tomorrow, oh tomorrow, begins another round of BACK-TO-SCHOOL crazy scheduling:
M-Sun drop james off at work
drop baby off with my dad
M-TH 7:30am Samoan 201
watch Mahie, do hw, errands
M,W,F 1:20-2:20 Comm 280
T, TH Anthro 322
M-Sat Pick up James from 1st job & we head to his 2nd job where we both work

What a JOY to know that at the end of this crazy semester is CHRISTMAS in SAMOA. Which reminds me, I have to start working on Mahie's passport asap. Oh & I got my 1st Term Grades back. I can't believe I got an A- in Physical Science, I thought I was failing it. Yay!
Its a little pass 9:30pm and this Momma is pooped out
