Wednesday 9th March

Lunch was at the park today with our coffee group. It was a bit distracting for Ollie, but he did have a munch on his baby corn, and a wee bit on his banana. He is getting better with his sippy cup, (which I only introduced yesterday!) though I'm not sure he is too keen on water just yet! He always looks a bit surprised when it comes out! Ollie had a wee gag while we at the park, and it was interesting watching a couple of people's faces! Nothing like the almost-scary gags we get at home!

Dinner was beef casserole cooked in the crockpot with steamed green beans. Ollie was pretty tired, but still had a good chew on his beef and also the broccoli! He has taken to chewing the stalk end of broccoli, which is strange given he used to always suck on the floret bit. He got a bit screamy in his highchair tonight, but I think that was a combination of tired/teeth because he did get back to his eating....

Day Twelve - Wed 2nd March

Lunch: Leftover steak, carrot and brocolli. He again enjoyed his steak, but also got into the carrot, brocolli, and courgette today.  Chewing on it all! He especially like the broccoli today, biting off a huge hunk and chewing around his mouth for aaages! Also the carrot, he was actually biting off huge chunks and chewing them around his mouth! (I'll be looking out for carrot in upcoming nappies.....!)

it doesn't all quite fit in my mouth...

Dinner: We are getting more adventurous.... I have Guides on a Wednesday night, so in order for Ollie to have dinner with us, I need to be super organised. Today I made a green curry casserole in the crockpot. Beef steak, green curry paste, coconut milk, tomatoes, tomato puree, courgette, broccoli, carrot... and capsicum. I think thats it! Made in a bit of a hurry as Ollie decided he was STARVING and needed a feed as I was in the middle of it. Ollie seemed to really like it, and had a go at all of it. By the end of the meal, he was covered in curry sauce! Straight into the shower after dinner!

Such a successful day!
