We had a good laugh last night with Aaron. He has started blowing raspberries and has started putting sounds together in what sound a little like words. My brother was holding him last night when he went into a bubble blowing session. He had us in hysterics even though he was clearly very serious about this whole bubble/motorbike sound/spit thing:
We decided to start Aaron on rice cereal earlier this week. The bottles just didn’t seem to be doing it for him (well, the natural method is difficult to measure and we could see how much he was drinking from the bottles). Gina started feeding him the rice cereal on Monday and he didn’t really know what to do with it.
This morning he suddenly started opening his mouth to the spoon and, hey presto, food was going in. We gave him some cereal this evening with one of his feeds too and I got this video of Gina feeding him.
I got this from Gina in an email and had to share!
