Joys of Solid Food

Our Little One has indeed grown... he now enjoys solid food.. and I mean ENJOY!!!! like he loves to sit with us at the dining table in his high chair and sharing mealtimes with us.. ok so he is not exactly eating what we have for dinner.. but hey.. when you are 6+mths... rice cereal with pureed apple does not really sound that bad...

After the fiasco with Formula Milk (we are still persevering on that end)... We have made adjustments to Our Little One's nutritional intake by increasing the quantity and variety of solid food in his diet.. Formula Milk.. we march to Barack Obama's tune on this.... We actually encourage Our Little One to finish the bottle of Formula Milk with "Yes We Can!".. wonder what he or the wider American public will think of this.. but hey... getting a baby to fulfill his daily nutrition requirement is a great cause unto itself!...

But the most fun Our Little One has in his day (other than torturing us with his constant and unequivocal refusal of Formula Milk) is obviously mealtime with his little plastic bowl and spoon... We could not quite figure out whether he really likes the taste of his solids or that he is doing what we do.. eating at the table.... or both...

But there is no doubt in our minds that Our Little One is GROWING .. and oh what joy it is to see and learn that fact of life anew at the close of every day... I mean hey... it is a positive thing to come home to especially when work has been crappy and saps the living life out of your soul!
