Jan/Feb

During January & February, Austin was a very busy little boy. Some of the things he got up to:
* Started solids
* Took swimming "lessons"
* Attended Gymboree classes
* Started saying "Da-Da" (I'm convinced he thinks that's me)
* Was rolling all over the place like a steam roller
* Sitting on his own (a bit wobbly)
* Jumping in his Jolly Jumper (he LOVES it)

Where do I start??

I can't believe it's been over a month since I posted anything about our little man!! I feel so bad. So much has happened since then too. He's such an active little boy and he's growing, growing, growing!!!

Let's see, I'll dedicate this post to FOOOOOOD! YES, Austin started solids at 5.5 months of age on the 21st of January. We started him with good ole rice cereal. He took to it like a champ. We slowly started introducing vegetables and fruit such as sweet potato, pear, apple, zucchini, green bean, butternut pumpkin, peach, broccoli. In the last week, he has started on lentils and a tiny bit of chicken. The little tike isn't as keen on his proteins. So, I'm having to introduce very creative ways of getting those things into his food. Now I understand how frustrated parents get when their kids are finicky eaters! It isn't easy!!!

Here's a link to the video of his first solids and some photos too.

The kid is a very messy eater...
