Daniel had his first taste of solid food today- poi from Hawaii! Ashley's first real food as a baby was poi so we decided to try it with Daniel too. Just like his mommy, he absolutely loved it and kept wanting more. He also wanted to hold the spoon all by himself. We've been putting Daniel in his highchair while we eat dinner and he truly enjoys being involved with everyone else. Thanks for the great highchair, Granny and Gramps!
On Wednesday Daniel celebrated his 1/2 year old (a.k.a. 6 months) birthday! It is hard to believe that it has already been six months since he was born. We celebrated with a mini brownie topped with a candle cut in half! Daniel thought the brownie was delicious and had seconds. Just kidding! (We ate the brownie on his behalf.) Daniel hasn't started to eat solids yet, stay tuned for that adventure next week.
Last weekend Daniel, Ashley and Grandma drove to San Francisco to visit Auntie Val and Uncle Jeff. Daniel hadn't seen them since their wedding and he missed them so much. During our visit we ate a delicious meal at Tomaso's, walked to the marina and piers, visited the Farmer's Market, watched the football games and Daniel even had happy hour at his first bar! Daniel loved the constant attention from Auntie Val and Grandma and special man to man bonding with his Uncle Jeff.
Daniel had a very happy first halloween. He even tried some trick-or-treating (but no candy for our sweet-toothed shark yet!)
