food!
Lest I forget the baby...
L. is pushing nine months. We just added in a second meal a day for him. So now he eats dinner with us and lunch at some point during the day. For dinner he has oatmeal mixed with a fruit, a vegetable or avocado, and typically frozen watermelon in his bag feeder device. For lunch it is just oatmeal mixed with fruit. As with S., we make all his food except for the oatmeal which we buy. So far L. has eaten (and enjoyed): oatmeal, rice cereal, bananas, pears, apples, cantaloupe, watermelon, plums, avocado, sweet potatoes, and kabocha squash. He loves his plums, avocados, and squash best. And he is crazy for the watermelon. He drinks a small amount of water when he eats and he has recently figured out how to get water out of the valved sippy cups (he can also drink out of an open cup). He loves to chew on/lick his bowls at the end of his meal. It is kind of like his victory lap. He is still nursing just about as much, though he more frequently will go four hours between nursing now. He is still mostly a milk baby.
