Bubeaner has been spending some good quality time with Grandma Ellen. He has been showing her every single one of his "tricks" even during bath time. And Granma has taught him a new game. Bubeaner now loves to play "Pat-a-Cake" at all times. We have tried to convince him that "Pat-a-Cake" is not meant to be played at midnight, or 3a, or 4a for that matter. We are having little success.
He loves his jumperoo and its toys
We have been feeding him more during his meals by adding cereal to his fruit puree snacks, adding good fat like from avocado, and offering him more food overall. As a result, he has weaned himself off another meal. He now only nurses at 430a/5a and at 9a. He has a mid-morning snack, a full meal at noon followed by 4-6 oz of formula, another snack at 3p after his long nap followed by 2-4 oz of formula, dinner with water at 630p, then a bath followed by 4-8 oz of formula with cereal for supper at 730p. We joke about our foie gras Bubeaner, but we never force feed him. We offer him healthy food options and stop when he shows signs of being full. Above all, we are trying to instill healthy eating habits that he can follow through life.
