I went to a W.I.C. class to learn about feeding Nixon solid foods. The girl said Nixon was displaying every sign to start him on solids except for one. I decided, well I will go ahead and try it out, so...I did!
He did well, a lot came back out...but thats just classic baby. He seemed to like it because when I went to give up (haha I know...) he was getting upset and did his own way of banging his fists on the bumbo tray haha it was hilarious!! Anyways, even though I was told not to (due to chocking hazards) I now give it to Nixon in a bottle with his formula. It is just so much easier, but when his official 6 month mark comes I will for sure be feeding him his solids right from the spoon. Plus, by this time we will have a larger apartment, so it wont be in the middle of our family room.
Anyways, Nixon is doing great, and growing fast! Our friends just had a baby probably 2 weeks ago now, and she is so TINY! I cannot remember Nixon ever being that small! He is smiling lots, has an awesome personality which everyone totally loves, and he is a little mover! He absolutely loves his car seat, and will always nap in it, and is so great because I feel like he is in it more than he should be. He enjoys our walks a lot. At first he kicks his feet and laughs, and then usually on my way back, he is sound asleep...well I shouldn't say sound because he snoors!!
(I thought it was cute how he was holding onto his ear)
He got his immunizations, such a trooper! I liked how all 3 band-aids were different!
He is really into sucking on his fingers right now. He will stick them so far in that he starts to choke himself! Crazy little man! And every once in a while I find him sucking on his thumb.... I hope that doesn't take on at all!
Anyways, we love our little man, and his big blue eyes! :)
It is so nice when they start eating solid foods. Good luck at getting him to eat the cereal.
