Trying Food!


Connor tried his first food, avocado on July 8th. Patrick fed it to him and he seemed to enjoy it.



Connor tried his second food, carrots yesterday. He was not such a fan of carrots. If he doesn't have any bad reaction to carrots then perhaps I will try mixing avocado and carrot and see if he likes that better. I am making my own baby food, so we now have the extra carrot puree frozen in cubes in a baggie. I think it is fun!

Other firsts...
Yesterday, while napping on his tummy (yes I know it is taboo) the Con-Man puled his feet up under his tummy for the first time.

I picked back up the book that I started to read forever ago, the baby whisperer and read the section on sleep. It has worked amazingly. Connor took all of his naps yesterday in his crib, in his bedroom. He even slept in there through the night and in the morning (which I didn't think I would be comfortable with until he was at least 6 months, but it worked out alright). He has been going down quickly.. he has caught on! The first nap yesterday took about 20 minutes and lots of crying. Since then there hasn't really been any crying just a little fussing. I have been laying him down awake too!

At his 4 month apt. on July 6th Connor weighed 16lbs and was in the 70%. He was 26" long, 83% and had a head circumference of 43.5, 80%. All in all a happy big boy! I get lots of comments from 50 year old men about how cute he is.Apparently men like a large baby.
