Solid Food



I can't believe Frederick is already six months! He is fun to play with now, Travis can really get him laughing and squealing in delight. His introduction to solids was not quite as smooth as we had hoped, he was excited but made the typical faces of disgust when the food was actually in his mouth. We discovered that his digestive system can't tolerate brown rice but he is doing well with oatmeal once every four days. It just seems that it takes his digestive system some time to adjust to new things but so far this new plan seems to be working well. Frederick is as cheerful as ever and brings so much joy into our home.

The good news is that we can tell he is not starving. The bad news is, How do you remember if it's been 4 days?

Wow, you managed to capture the classic "first bite" experience beautifully! I can just imagine him thinking "What in the world did she just give me?" What a joy he is to all. I can hardly wait to experience those joys. See you soon!

It's always fun to see all the faces they make when starting solid food.
