First Tooth

Adam's first tooth (bottom, front) broke through last night. It's not yet visible, but it's sharp on the finger.

Growth Stats


I've created a separate page for Adam's growth statistics. We'll continue to update this page as we get new measurements (after doctor appointments). I've also added a link to this page in the navigation (right) under "Baby's Growth".

Feeding Adam

Adam 090
Adam and Mommy

We have been gradually introducing Adam to solid foods. We started with rice cereal and originally planned to wait on other solids until he reached 6 months. Good plan, but Adam doesn't like cereal at this time. He frowns and gags when we try to feed it to him. We decided to try carrots to see if he just wasn't ready for solids. He did just fine with carrots. We tried applesauce: frowns and gagging. We tried feeding him his normal formula by spoon: no problem. We tried the cereal ourselves. Nothing wrong with it. It actually tastes pretty good. So, the cereal will be put aside for a couple of weeks and we'll continue with the carrots being the only solid supplement for now.

Adam has gotten in the habit of trying to sit upright and look around while he is feeding from his bottle. This has made feedings a little frustrating for whoever is trying to get Adam to eat and frustrating for Adam, because he wants to sit up, move around, look around, play and still suck from his bottle. It also makes for a messy feeding.
