squash...

canon had his 6 month checkup this week. he is in the 10th percentile in height and weight (14.12 lbs and 25"). needless to say, he's a little guy! we started solids this week. besides dealing with constipation, he loves it. he tried squash the first day and didn't hate it but also surprised me by not devouring it. by the second day, he couldn't get enough! he has now expanded his pallet to include bananas and green beans. we have enjoyed watching him experience these delicious foods! he also is drinking a daily dose of prune juice out of a sippy cup. that's also fun to watch! we are currently working on mastering sitting up...almost there. he is growing so fast, but is tons of fun!

I think I experienced some of that squash or maybe peaches this morning in the nursery.

that's so funny because when i picked him up he had a thin yellow line down the front of him. we couldn't figure out what it was. i even had lane smell it to see if it was pee! we then realized it was the remenant of breakfast.

Cute! I remember the introduction to solids. It can be so funny yet so messy. Do you make your own babyfood? My boys wouldn't eat the jarred stuff. They ate it on vacations but at home they refused. I guess they wanted a "home cooked meal" ha!!

Great pictures! We really enjoyed having lunch with you guys yesterday. I especially enjoyed getting slobbery kisses from Canon.

no i haven't attempted homemade baby food! we just heat it up when it comes out of the fridge. this morning he ate a whole plastic container of applesauce. that was the most he had eaten so far! lisa, we enjoyed hanging out with y'all too! slobbery kisses are the best...
