We introduced you to watermelon today. Watermelon is one of my favorite foods, and I ate lots of it while I was pregnant with you. Your dad frequently shops for food on his way home for work, and last summer he’d ask me what I wanted. I’d ask for a watermelon, and he’d always oblige, even though it meant he had to ride home from the store with a watermelon on his bike. I was excited to see what you thought of this food. It was a mess, actually, because we tried to puree it for you. Of course it just turned to liquid, so it was really hard to feed it to you. You didn’t seem to mind, though, but you did have a funny reaction. You kept blowing out of your mouth so that your lips fluttered and watermelon juice went flying. It was hilarious. Thank goodness I got a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X13IUQu23Mc&feature=channel&list=UL).

Dirty and happy after some watermelon
