more updates....

Henry's lead level came back completely normal. Anything above a 10 on the lead test is cause for concern and Henry's blood level came back at a 1. But, I do worry that one he is mobile (and in closer contact to our windowsills) that the level will go up......but, we will cross that bridge when we get to it.

On the baby food front, there is little progress. He has refused rice cereal, applesauce, avocado, sweet potatoes, and bananas. Tomorrow we will give peas a try. I need to take a video and post it to show everyone how cute he is when he pinches his little lips shut whenever the foody spoon gets near his mouth............

Sam started with green beans, squash, and carrots. I think he could eat those everyday. You might try those? However, my little fatty eats almost everything I put in front of him, so I'm not much help on this front. If it's fruit, he eats it.

He doesn't like food? Lennox used to turn his nose up to everything green but we've turned him around. We started him with carrots, sweet potatoes, and squash then apples and pears. He's a huge fan of carrots and sweet potatoes.

Do you have one of these? http://www.amazon.com/Baby-Safe-Feeder-Made-USA/dp/B000056JCY Lennox loves this thing filled with bananas, avocado, or mango.
