Our little eating machine

Jonathan loves to eat.

When I get him out of his crib in the morning, he is cheery and smiley for about 30 seconds until he realizes he's hungry. Then things take a turn for the worse as he gets annoyed and begins lunging, mouth agape, into my neck, arm, whatever is in the general vicinity that he can try to latch onto.

He would nurse for 45 minutes every time if I let him (but I have little things that get in the way like going to work, eating, sleeping, etc) and when he takes bottles at daycare, he sucks the bottles dry every time and pouts about it afterwards.

So it comes as no surprise that he has taken quite well to solids over the past two weeks. Here is what we've tried so far:

  • Rice cereal
  • Sweet potatoes
  • Pears

Sunday we'll be introducing green beans which will be the real test. Is it possible for Jeremy's son to like green veggies? Stay tuned...
