full convert

Contrast and compare with the food pics from a few weeks ago, if you will.

As of last week, Aug kicks his legs, flaps his arms and goes "hummm" the moment he sees a little bowl of baby food. Mashed banana, apple sauce with a bit of cream cheese, stellini star pasta, yams & brown rice. Three little meals a day for our happy little munchkin.

We've been really busy since last month and the result has been a quick slide back into August waking to eat every 2-3 hours each night. It's taking a toll on all of us so we're working on getting us back to one or two feedings a night. Promise to catch up on here with other Augie news, videos, and pictures for all you grandparents out there...

ps, I know there are books and pediatricians that say not to introduce any dairy until one year but this awesome site http://wholesomebabyfood.com/ debunks some of that old wisdom and points out that mild cheeses like ricotta, cottage, and cream are very safe. Stellini pasta with butter and parmesan is the first food for many Italian babies, for example. Of course, if your family has a history of lactose intolerance/allergies, etc, then you'd want to be more cautious.
