Avocado and Chew Toys

Zain's menu is still expanding.  We've added apple, avocado, and barley cereal.  He's decided he doesn't like banana after all, so it's out of the rotation for now.  Avocado is currently his favourite treat.  We've brought out the high chair, despite the fact that he looks like a little peanut sitting in it.  The high chair has been a real game-changer.  It's much easier to feed him in it.  He's less distracted and less "helpful" with his hands.

 

Avocado - all done

Last week, Zain was all about practicing his rolling-over skills.  He's gotten pretty good at rolling from his back to his tummy, but he's only gone tummy to back a couple times.  This week, he seems to have abandoned rolling practice and is more interested in trying to sit.
  

Distraction helps balance

You'll notice in the picture above that the high chair hasn't solved all messiness issues.  Apparently, spoon goes in mouth, fingers go in mouth, and then fingers go to pants!

Binda decided to join in the Jolly Jumping, and got a boot in the side

Playing with Mummy

Have we mentioned he's 90th percentile for height?

Future career in dentistry?

 

 

We took a walk in High Park with some of the mommies and babies from our prenatal class.  Zain was hanging out with his friend Madeleine afterward and proved he needs some work on his social skills.  :-)

Looks like he's going in for a hug, yes?

Think again! Anything is a chew toy.
