Tastebuds

So the pediatrician mentioned that we need to start giving Angel some baby food not meals just yet but more of "tasting" some foods. Earlier in his 4mon I gave him some fresh banana by scrapping the banana with a baby spoon he didn't carr for it so I didn't push it. So Saturday I decided to try again since it was time for him to eat anyways and he smacks his lips when he's hungry so sees us eating I grabbed a banana and a spoon and gave him a taste, at first he made faces and looked away but then once he swallowed it he looked happy he continued to try it and seemed happy about it he'd actually hold my hand while the spoon was in his mouth and would get fussy if I took to long to give him more lol. Now I can't give him to much yet but with time he'll be able to give him more than just tastes;)

my plan for him is to make him foods at home. I'm not against moms that buy baby foods I did that for the girls but I also made them foods at home and so did my inlaws I just really rather start him off more natural. I know I won't be able to make it all the time but if I can 90% of the time I'll be happy;)

Txs for cking up on him

4mon physical

Angel had his 4mon physical and daddy took him because I was at work. Angel is 16lbs and 25in long.... Weight wise he's a little big but since he's long it equals out but it's not alot that he's over, last time he was 14 and they said he shouldve been 15 lol weird I know. Per the dr him rolling from hid back to his tummy is advanced ( I guess it's harder than rolling from your tummy to your back) he does try to stand when you hold him which she also mntioned is to soon so she said he might walk sooner than normal and due to him being a little ahead we need to start introducing food to him, but just to taste, this way he can have the proper vitamins for his muscles to get stronger.Oni said he got about 5 shots and 1 in the mouth he said he didn't cry just fussed but the last one was a painful shot so he did cry but daddy grabbed him quick to comfort him and he stopped crying and just sighed heavily:( talk about being a tough little boy! Overall he's right on track:D

When he got home I luckily finished with dinner and was able to hold him. He wasn't fussy at first, he was actually very happy and giggle. He's been skipping naps lately I think he's going to be a little kid that rather play than nap lol Gena was like that but not until she was 1. Through the afternoon he fussed more and more he's also been stuffy so that didn't help him. Daddy took him a warm bath with the vapor bath and let him sit in it so all the mucous can get loose, amazing sometimes after a bath he acts like he napped for hours and is just soooo hyper and happy!! He didn't fall asleep until about 10, he was in his swing laughing and cooing and then boom he passed out. last night he did ok, I did hold him for a while but when I woke up for work I laid him on hid side and he kept sleeping. I hope he gets better soon:(

just wanted to add that akiras been good with him she holds him and helps out, and Gena loves him to pieces, that is a plus for us:)

Busy body

Just a quick update on angel, he's a busy body! He prefers to be on the floor and roll around he can't roll all the way each time but boy oh boy he tries! Even on his swing he tries! He loves being held but he starts grunting and arching hid back when he wants down which means he wants to play with his toys sooo he is put in his bouncer and he's a happy baby pulling on his toys. He now knows that when the phone is pointed to him it's for a picture or video and he will stare at it....O__O

he loves kisses<3 and to sleep on his tummy, he's a handful because we can't do much if he's bored! Lol naps are quick. He will be my little tornado<3 I'm ok with that!

Txs for cking up on us:)
