Wow, it has been an entire month and I haven’t posted anything! What a slacker I am! Sorry!May has been a fantastic month so far, with more fun things to come.
Matty had his six-month check-up May 2nd. He is doing great. At that appointment he measured 27 1/2” long, and weighed 17 pounds, 3 ounces. The doctor also told us to start ‘solid’ food! She told us that he should be eating 3 meals a day, in addition to his bottles. He finished off the appointment getting more shots, poor thing. He is a champ and doesn’t really cry until the second one. Later that day we went to Babies ‘R Us. They had a baby food sale, and we had to pick up a highchair! His first meal was applesauce. He did really well. He ate most of the jar, and didn’t spit any out! He is a fan of pretty much any fruit, but his favorites are bananas and pears. He does pretty well with vegetables, with his favorites being carrots. However, he does not like peas- I can’t blame him, I don’t either, although Tony really likes peas. Matty also wasn’t too fond of green beans until I mixed them with his cereal; then they were just fine. He has done so well!!
I’ll make this brief, and will post more of the awesome firsts, and fun that filled May.
Tomorrow Matthew and I leave for Pittsburgh. We’re attending a family wedding.Unfortunately Tony starts his four-day shift tomorrow, so he is unable to attend with us.
