Month 6 - Starting Solids

So many things happened since my last entry! First would be your second fall from the bed this week. We can't seem to transfer you to your cot when you sleep. And to avoid interruption your sleep, we sometimes leave you on the bed surrounded by pillows which is of course not ideal anymore since you can crawl now. So you ended up on the floor twice now. Poor baby. Now someone has to be in the room with you or we will still try and try to put you in the cot.

You are also biting everything! Today you feel warmer than usual and you have irregular waking up times at night nowadays. Not to mention being more sticky. I'm suspecting another round of teething. Been checking your top gums often to see if they have cut through.

And the highlight of the week is that I have finally started you on solids! Your first meal was cauliflower mash. And you had purple carrots puree last two days. You are not used to all these tastes yet and ate only maybe a teaspoonful each time. You gave a funny unsure look which says, errr. ... what's this funny texture and taste in my mouth? You successfully made a mess especially with the purple carrot. You just wanted to grab the spoon and shove the food into your mouth but they ended up flung onto the floor or your chin...

You are not able to sit on your own yet so will try to do baby led weaning a bit later. You are however trying to push your body back to rest on your bum.

You know when I leave the room and beam ever so glady when I'm back. You love to laugh at your siblings silly antics. Sometimes even just the way they talk tickles you!
