Applesauce is Yummy too!

Connor has a new food to add to his options. He already takes formula as you all know and the rice cereal, now he also has some applesauce! He LOVES the applesauce and he is getting so much better with the spoon. It is really neat to see how he doesn't quite get it the first try but by the third spoonful he is eating like a champ. I don't plan on trying any other new foods with him until next month if the doctor says it is ok. Connor of course still takes pretty much all his food by bottle, the spoon feeding is just extra. As for bottle feeding Connor now eats at least 6 ounces a feed with rice added to the bottle and he eats ALOT. The kiddo goes through between 26 and 32 ounces a day, not a 24 hour period a day so from 8am to 8pm type deal. I think this is a growth spurt time because he is also sleeping alot more than he was just a few weeks ago. The goal weight for Christmas is now 14 pounds. That means Connor has to put on a pound and half by the 25th. The goal for 1 year (April 20) is 20 pounds. I was 17 pounds at 1 year so I would love to see Connor beat me on that. The pics on this blog are of Mr. Connor eating applesauce of course!

Love to you all,
