dont hold your breath

January 29th, 2010

It has been a LONG time since I’ve posted anything to this blog. I get into a groove where it works for a while. But then I fall out of that groove. I dont know. I just dont care about posting. I mean I dont want anyone to be disappointed, but sorry guys, I dont live my life to not upset my blog crowd! I have to do what works for me in a given day – and lately, blogging has not been it.

I also keep trying to convince myself that I’m a writer. I read all of these witty and entertaining blogs and I try to be like that. And when I realize that that’s just not me – I convince myself that I just shouldnt post anything then. Because if you cant be FUNNY then what else is there??

So we are left with this.

No new blog posts. – unless you count this one. which is really just explaining why I havent posted. and im not sure if i will again soon… so dong hold your breath!

Baby want a cheerio?

December 5th, 2009

so we just went to the doctor for Jameson’s 9 month check-up. All was good. He weighs 21 lbs 4 oz. And he checks out all healthy. While we were there the doc asked me about what Jameson is eating and he actually gave me the green light to begin giving Jameson some solid foods (you know, not all pureed). He said that even though he only has the 2 teeth part-way through on the bottom, he can have softer small pieces of food and gum them.

He warned me that although he is ready to begin with some solid foods that he WILL gag. Great. :) But that that’s just part of his learning how to feed himself and eat. 

So last night we gave Jameson some little pieces of soft pear. He LOVED IT!! We also tried some little pieces of pasta and although it did not go quite as good, we’ll keep trying.

My other latest food-related hurdle is getting Jameson to take the sippy cup. I dont want him to be super attached to the bottle, which I fear he already is, but I am not sure the best way to transition to the sippy cup. I have read that you should not only give juice and water in a sippy cup. Putting milk in the sippy cup makes the little ones learn that milk does not only come out of a bottle. But Jameson just does not care. He wants his bottle and doesnt care that there’s milk in the sippy. I keep offering though. Sometimes he’ll take the sippy cup with apple juice in it –  but that’s just sometimes.
