When in Rome..

Last weekend Konan and I had the chance to sneak over to Rome for a couple of days.  We left Kate at home and she did great! Thank you to both grandparents and Karisti for helping tend Kate. We left saturday from Cincinnati. We were lucky enough to sit in first class (a perk of being an airline employee) so we could sleep most of the ten hour flight. We stayed in Rome for three nights. Our hotel was a block away form Trevi fountain right in the center of all the action. A lot of our time was spent meandering the alleyways of Rome and eating gelato (mmm..) Of course we also saw all the major sites like the colosseum, roman forum, vatican museum, and St. Peters basilica. We loved Rome and had such a great trip!

First Solid Food!

Kate's finally on solid foods now. She has been such a good eater so far. We'll have to see once we move on to the veggies. Just out of curiosity has any actually made their own baby food? I've thought about it, but I just don't know if I can commit myself. It seems like a lot of work. On another happy note Kate is sleeping through the night. I forgot what I full nights sleep felt like. What a gift!
