BLW Progress

Banana & avocado, 6 Months

Broccoli, 6 Months

Sand, 7 Months... wait, sand isn't food? My bad. Ziva seemed to think it was.

Avocado, 7 months (and she was LOVING it!)

Mandarin Oranges, 7 Months (her new fave!!)


We started doing baby-led weaning (BLW) one day shy of Z's 6 month bday. We sat her in her bumbo and watched in awe as she mouthed a couple pieces of banana and avocado. Seriously. We took like 5 videos, and if we ever get around to editing maybe I'll post one. lol.
She has days where she has absolutely no interest in eating solids at all, and days like yesterday where she couldn't get enough. (She started to eat smooshed avocado off her bib...)
Here is a list of foods that Ziva has tried (and there's probably more that I can't think of):
-Banana
-Avocado
-Whole Wheat toast/bread
-Cantaloupe
-Peach
-Pear
-Carrot
-Green bean
-Lemon (I know, I know, but you should've seen her face!! =P)
-Sweet potato
-Artichoke heart
-Whole wheat waffle
-Blueberries
-Peas
-Mandarin Oranges (Her absolute FAVE!)
-Strawberries
- Yogurt

We really enjoy doing BLW. I have yet to purchase this book, but I have good intentions. =]

7 Months!

My sweet girl has turned 7 months old!
6.16.10



7 Month Stuff:

- She sits up all by herself now! (With the occasional topple of course.) She loves sitting on the floor to play with (read: chew on) her wooden puzzle, and whatever she can get her hands on.
- She's really getting the hang of eating solid foods. (Stay tuned for my next post! With pics!)
- I try to get her to say 'mama' every day. To no avail. The kid just stares at me and sometimes gives me a sly grin.
- In addition to her two bottom teeth, she cut her first top tooth last Saturday (6/19) and is working on 3 more top teeth! Holy moly!
- She still loves squealing and yelling with joy. =]
- She's been sleeping through the night again! (Except when she's having a hard time with those teeth!) And I love it. So much.
