Culinary Art



The "greener" I get, the GREENER Ingrit gets. Little Girl loves her some spinach and butternut squash puree!

Grandpa and Grandma Herfel came over for lunch on Thursday and got to see Ingrit really chow down. She lets me feed her for awhile and then she'll grab the spoon to do it herself. Very independent this one's going to be.

By Thanksgiving she should be able to have some turkey with us. And cranberries. And sweet potatoes. And oh my...she's just a growing person.

Ingrit had her 6 month well baby check up and she looks like a million bucks. The doctor said so. She's 27" long (88th percentile) and 15 lb 9 oz (38th percentile). We go to see the kidney specialist again on 11/11 for an ultrasound and check in. We're hoping her urinary retention has just disappeared. That's likely to be the case. (Prenatal tests showed fluid retention in one kidney and dilation. At 4 weeks she had a major day of testing and it appeared at that time not to be affecting her. I think the doctor used the term "stretchy kidney." He wasn't worried, but he did want us back for testing in 6 months.)
