Hungry, Hungry Kraken

I cannot believe how much Gabriel eats. The "suggested" feeding schedule the pediatrician gave us has the high end at 34 ounces of formula and 8 tablespoons of solid food a day for 5-7 month olds.

Gabriel is currently at 32 ounces of formula and 10 tablespoons of solid food a day and he's still hungry. All the time. That kid would eat cement if we put it in front of his mouth. When he sits in his chair at the table and we have food near him he tries to faceplant into it, because he's going through this phase where his body follows his eyes when he sees something he wants. The problem is, he never seems to be full, and so if we're not careful he'll overeat and then throw up. Yet, he's STILL HUNGRY. ALL THE TIME. At this rate both Carlos and I will have to work two jobs a piece just to earn enough money to feed him when he's a teenager. I guess it could be worse. At least he eats, and he even eats things he doesn't like, like green beans. (...geckoboy...) Yesterday I fed him some and he kept making faces and shuddering and twitching his face, yet he STILL ATE THEM ALL UP.

Bee tee dubs, my new icon? It's Hebrew and translates to say, "Yes, I am a MILF." Hee.

gabriel, milf, eating
