Z loves baby A

Hey y'all,

So, I realize more and more how much Z loves Baby A ( his little cousin). They are super adorable together. She wakes up in the mornings before he goes to school to see him off. He gives her a kiss and hug every nght before he goes to sleep. They watch cartoons together. He tries to teach her the alphabet, numbers, and anything else he learns at school. He is her protector. I love the that they love each other so much.


They hold hands while she does tumy time. Aren;t these two jst precious?

Off the spoon for Baby A

So Baby A is an exclusively breastfed baby. She has recently been showing signs of being ready for baby food so we gave it a try. We started with oatmeal mixed with breastmilk. We tried with water first. She did not approve of that at all. She ate it up when we mixed it with the breastmilk. 



As you can see, this was an impromptu feeding and all we had were plastic spoons. We went and bought infant spoons the very next day. She eats oatmeal at least once a day now. We have also started adding some banana or applesauce to it. She absolutely loves that. Applesauce is her favorite. 


She is a happy chunky faced baby. It was apparently good to the last bit. She ate it off her fingers. 


The cues we noticed as far as her being ready for baby food were as follows:
-tracking other people's food
-making chewing motions with her mouth
-trying to feed herself your food
