Jacob

Jacob helping himself to a donut. We have given up any hopes of him eating in his high chair any more. Whenever he goes in there, half of his food lands on the floor and the dog'll eat it. Needless to say, he's her new best friend these days. And I'm starting to get a little worried because when I took him in for his check up when he turned 1, he was 22 lbs. When we weighed him last week (almost 5 months later) he only weighed 25 lbs. I just feel like he's not getting enough to eat and he's not gaining like he should be. Especially for how big he was when he was born. So, we've started letting him eat "on the run" like AJ used to. I have found that he'll eat more that way because he can go play and come back and get something whenever he wants to; he's not penned up. The only problem with that is when he eats cheetos.....I have cheeto stains all over the house!
Plus, he has also decided that he needs to have something in each hand at all times, whether it be a bottle and pacifier, 2 toys or food. So here he is getting another donut from the bag on the table.
Dancing around with 2 donuts, just as happy as can be.

Last bite

  • Ade was 21 lbs at her check-up. We let her eat on the run, but I worry about that actually keeping her thin. Like exercising while eating, ya know?
