A First Time For Everything
Well last night Eli slept through the night! We kept wondering if he was ok...checking on him throughout the night. But of course he was! He went to bed at 7pm and woke up at 6:30am. 11.5 hrs. Good Job Biddley.
The letter of the day is R...backwards!!!
Hi!
Eli ate his first foods this week. We first tried mushed bannanas w/ Breastmilk. And then later on in the week we tried rice cereal w/Breastmilk. He made some funny faces, but overall was quite excited to be eating. If the food was too runny then he would try to blow on it when I put the spoon in his mouth. Food went everywhere. So we thickened it up a bit and he does better. He likes to grab the spoon as i'm putting it in his mouth. Then he sucks on the spoon and slurps up all the food. Were working on the sippy cup too. I'm reading a good book called Super Baby Food by Ruth Yaron. It tells you everything you could ever want to know about feeding your baby, all the nutritional information for each developmental phase and how to quickly and easily you can make your own baby food.

A Poo Story
This was also a first. I was only in the kitchen for a second. I came back out minutes later to see what all the noise was (Eli talking and playing loudly) to find him on his tummy (I had left him on his back playing in the living room) rolling around and playing in his poo. He also got a bunch of his little letters in on it too. Poo was everywhere. I swear this all happened in less then 1 minute. The joke is this. Ever since Eli has started eating foods and learning to crawl he has not wanted to go on the potty. Some days he will go, and other days he will protest. He does this by arching his back and looking up at me and talking really loud. So I tried to not have a diaper on him today to see if we would relinqish the potty practice...but Eli has definatly had the last word on this one. This coming from a 5 1/2 month old who has never wanted to go poo in his diaper, I could count on two hands how many dirty diapers I have had to changed since he was 10 weeks old. So this is his first "Potty Pause", he wants to take a brake, I get it. No potty practice for the rest of the week, unless he tells me he wants to go!

Yum, no surprise that he likes food, after all those subtle hints. BIG surprise that Eli is up on all fours. Get ready, the circus is coming soon to Bremerton!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that typical of life? You wait and wait for something (a good night's sleep), and then when it arrives, you don't seem to be able to take advantage of it (and sleep peacefully). Pretty funny...
