A diverse dinner...

So, I just thought I'd share what Cyanne had for dinner last night because it amuses me in its randomness.

She had a nice selection of the following:
Clementine segments
Banana bits
Shredded Colby cheese
Little pieces of a "finger food" composed of broccoli, cheese, egg and bread crumbs (thanks mara!)
Black olives (sorry Blabeys... she's an olive eater! =) and black ones too, even!)
Bits of day-old garlic bread
A nice blend of oatmeal, sweet potato, and corn "mush"
and ...
topped off with a nice sippy cup full of cold water.

She seemed to enjoy the cheese, olives, and garlic bread the best. She'd emphatically point to the olives (which I then removed from our pizza and gave to her) and the bread (which tom then shared with her) until she got some to eat.

Even better yet - she kept doing the sign for "more" in relation to those foods.
And then, when deciding she was done, proceeded to do the sign for "all done".
Fantastic!
We're all communicating! =)

She seemed to quite enjoyed herself.
She ate while we prepared our own dinner (not nearly as diverse), enjoyed a glass of wine, and asked her all about her day.

She then helped us wrap some Christmas gifts.
That, however, was short-lived as her idea of helping was to either grab the paper we were trying to smooth out or to sit right on top of the box we were wrapping. (my apologies to some of you in advance for smooshed boxes. Cyanne sends her love =)).

So... all in all a fun evening at the Blabey house.
I gotta say it - my girl's quite a cutie! =)
