My milkshake brings all the babies to the yard...
Can you believe I have only heard that milkshake song TWO TIMES, and then only because of going to iTunes and listening to a 30-second sample (twice) so I could tell what everyone is talking about? And still the earworm.
Hungriest Baby in the Universe yesterday. It was like throwing food down a bottomless well. I mean, we fed her solids at 4 and AGAIN at 6, and I'd nursed in the interim! I felt like I was being devoured from 1pm onwards, and all night. Have bruised nipples from the little barracuda. And it's not like she needs to grow any more! She's big! (Though not as big as G. the enormous baby who looks unfortunately like her father from our childbirth class - I ran into them at the park Saturday and she was 17 pounds 14 ounces at 4 months! On breastmilk alone! Then again, this is the baby that gained a pound and a half between being born and her first checkup at the pediatrician, two days later (most breastfed babies lose some the first week or so - and in general, for the first few months they gain an ounce a day. Not a pound a day.).)
Fed her homemade applesauce. Funniest faces yet. It is a little bit tart but not very much so - will try pears when I get a chance, as maybe milder. The first bite of applesauce made her cry, but she warmed up to it some. She did eat is, but in a "well, I trust you guys, but boy is this weird" sort of way.
